CB anniversary sign

CB anniversary sign ups! The CB's anniversary is sometime in June (What was the date of the first post admins?) and I remember the first post that really caught my eye before I even posted was a backpages CB anniversary video. It was lovely and the CB really is such a beautiful place. I would love to make a video dedicated to this community. If you wish to join fill out the form below! I will need people to provide art, editing skills, quick videos for editing together, quotes and things like that.

Name:

Skills/what you wanna do:

Ideas: 

I think we decided upon June 18, but I'm not sure.

What art would you like me to do for the end scene?

@Kitty Cat TBH I had no idea. Maybe you could draw a scene from a solo write or a ski lodge?

I'm sorry, I won't be able to make the deadline.  Life has been keeping preoccupied and I haven't had a chance to work on the quotes.  I have been thinking out one and trying to find the other.

@Silver Crystal that looks amazing! Obviously I'll have to flip it but it is just perfect! @Jaybells Please never again say that you "suck" at haikus. That was perfect!

People I'm really sorry to be dumping this on you but I'm doing all I can to form the video. If you could begin to work on your designs or just check in here often that would be great.

Cranberry: A short poem would be great!

I wasn't exactly sure what you wanted for a famous quote, but I can up with a couple.  I will continue to find more so you have a selection.  You can use all, or just one!

"True friends are always together in spirit" -- L. M. Montgomery

"M is for magic.  All the letters are, if you put them together properly." -- Neil Gaiman

Thank you for doing this!  Let me know if you like one of these and I will hand letter that one.  It's okay if you don't like either, I will continue searching.

Hello... Um, I'm late... Like, really late. Are there any jobs left? I can write, do calligraphy, maybe draw, maybe write poetry. Anything, really.

@Peregrine Could you letter the LM Montgomery one? Thanks! (Both will be used)

Majestic Mary: Could you do some calligraphy of a poem you wrote? Thanks! (By the way nice to see you! I haven't in a while)

Hey everyone, I was wondering if any of you had ideas for pictures. I'm supposed to take one for the video, but I'm not sure of what. Any suggestions?

Here's my Blab about Books logo! I made it using Procreate, which I just got a couple days ago (good timing!), so I'm not completely sure what I'm doing, but I think it turned out alright. I'd love some feedback if you don't mind!

That looks great!  I really like the purple, and the BaB with the cureive blab about books underneath looks really cute.  Also, I am honored to have the contest I started on the list.  I have some feedback, but I wasn't sure if you wanted it only from Juni or if you were open to anyone.  Just let me know, I won't be offended either way.
