Merry go round

Every last friday of the month, I jump on the 'Merry go round'. What is the Merry go round exactly? Each month, a group of craftswomen from around the world join together and give their reponses to the same question/challenge.This time we had a photo inspiration challenge. We all submitted one picture and the one with the most votes was the one we had to be inspired by. Thank goodness I voted for the picture which won. It is made by Viltalakim and it just makes me happy and content.
But it is also summer and I have been slacking a bit lot, I have not much to show for as I only started something yesterday... So this is what I am making at the moment:
It's going to be a 3D brooch with the shapes of the balloons and I hope it will look like a happy cloud... I'm going to mould it and then press clay into it. I'll show the end result next month! So you have something to look forward to...

Want to know what the other merriers made? Hop over to their blogs. Please bear in mind that the members will be posting at different times of the day, depending on which world time-zone they are in :)

Wat een geweldig idee, ik ben benieuwd wat er uit de overn komt!__Heerlijk zo'n verrassingspakketje in de post.

Wat een heerlijk inspirerende foto.
Een "vrolijke wolk", wat geweldig idee, kunnen we goed gebruiken, voorlopig zitten we hier onder heel onvrolijke wolken.
hey looks cool! With lots of different colours and the rest.. will be interesting to see!
I look forward to seeing how the 'balloons' brooch turns out (I'm imaging a very colourful affair.... )
Look forward to seeing it. It looks very similar to my first creation as I tried this challenge which was a bunch of grapes!
Dit is misschien iets voor jou (misschien ken je het wel al) www.lievandrie.be. Maakt juwelen uit porselein en vilt. Ik vind die mooie zuivere kleur van het porselein goddelijk !
Looking forward too!
This is bound to make for a very cheerful brooch...
Will be checking back for sure to see that brooch. Brooches rock. And Mitsy rocks.
Great start! Can't wait to see it finished!
