HP Craftalong ~Summer Semester 2012~ *CLOSED*

Thank you everyone for your kind words and encouragement although you may want to rethink that now that you have had a glimpse into my mind

Mloopy, I love how understated that is! Simple and effective, black on grey. Is that fabric paint or markers?

I was thinking of a row of spiders marching across clothing too (underwear, in my case), but I was picturing them from the side, rather than the top--your way looks better than my imagining.

I'm enjoying looking at all these projects, actually. Interesting to see what very different things people come up with.

Ooooooo I love it, chughes225!  You have such pretty hair!!!

Thanks

Tonk's Knight Bus hair - I love it and I'm jealous now Did you bleach it first?

Yes I did have to bleach it first.  With how dark my hair is the color just wont show up unless I do.  I'm planning on doing my daughters next week and she has light brown hair so Im hoping not to have to bleach it.  She is so excited,

@Chughes Ahh, I love it! That's actually the color mine was supposed to be but it turned out blue xD What dye did you use? I used Manic Panic Ultra Violet which I suppose has more of a blue base and all of the red washed out the first time.

HOLY JEEZ, YOU GUYS!

My head is spinning.  Everything rocks so freaking hard.  Everything looks amazing!

Pinkleo, Thank you for your help.  You are doing such an amazing job of giving such incredible positive feedback.  You are the master of masters.   

Chughes225, You crafty minx!  My violet question was about hair dye!  lol No joke.

  The Knight bus challenge is perfect because my hair is currently pink but fading fast so I had to think of something to do before I end up with salmon hair.  So, I went and got Ultra Violet Manic Panic because in my head the Knight Bus has always been violently violet.  I still have to get the rest of the supplies needed, powder and developer.  I'm going to soap cap it twice over the period of two weeks.  I'm going to mix the violet with toner and go a bit pastel.  At least that's my idea at the mo'.   

I've started my transfiguration assignment and even started taken photos. I will be posting here again soooooon.

Class: Transfiguration
House: Ravenclaw
Project Name: Crookshanks? Scabbers?
Project Page Link:Itty-Bitty Toys Reversibles
Brief Description: Pretty sure Professor McGonagall will be proud- I successfully transfigured Crookshanks into Scabbers. While learning the spell I did run into problems, like when Scabbers looked more like a mole, but a few attempts later and I think I got the cross-species transfiguration down.

Ravenclaw

I know a muggle or two I asked if I could go watch something on the "t.v?"
Several times I seen things it  shaped like a circle with a type of twine & sorts of leather  
stretched over it in different shapes. I asked what it was she said it was called a "dream catcher"
I decided it would be perfect for my muggle studies assignment.
Here is how it turned out using only vintage supplys.
(please excuse the crappy photos my camera is in the shop)

Whoa! Everyone's wands are on fire!
Rossi, your Nargle is amazing.
skatergirl1007, love the eclipse and for some reason I think "cookie" and want to eat it...mmm, cookie...
chughes, nice hair! so knight-bus purple.
teag, the Mnemonic Inscriptor is very creative, just like your story to go with it.
Mloopy, excellent spider shirt, not creepy at all.

All of these projects (and the ones I forgot to mention) are great!!

OH my goodness, pottermouth - that Crookshanks/Scabbers is jaw-dropping awesome.  Siriusly.  What an idea!  As for the project name...Scrookshanks?  Crabbers?

Holy camole!  Hands down you get an "Outstanding" or at LEAST an "Exceeds expectations".  Awesome, awesome work.
