Creative Challenge 2012


I had a moment of despair today and a friend suggested a project that just GRABBED at me:
"I have an idea that you could so help me with id like to start changing the view of sick people fed up of the scrounger crap

The idea is simple: People send photo's doing something they love, work, play, make, think, whatever and make a collage of them."

The first thing that came into my head was the song from The Sound of Music "My favourite things" So I thought, Why not make this into the photo project ?

Everyone submits a photo of their favourite thing to add to a collage of HAPPINESS !!

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woollen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favourite things

Cream coloured ponies and crisp apple strudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favourite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favourite things

When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favourite things
And then I don't feel so bad

    I rewrote the song years and years ago for an LG (as it was then, LGBT now) project - a "Butches in plaid shirts and big Muscle Marys, femmes in nice dresses and pink mincing fairies" sort of thing.

    I think it's an excellent idea! As it's called Creative Challenge 2012, do we have until December? I'd like to rope my partner in but we're 7,936km apart right now.

    Do we only submit one picture each?
