Get Creative - new element added to the Aurifil competition

I love how you set people a simple mosaic-making task and people start improvising and doing it their their own way.  And for that reason, we are adding a third prize in this contest.  A third 12 spool set for the most creative / beautiful / inspiring entry to this contest.  Same deadline, 18 April, same Flickr group and a third judge (as yet to be decided).  To get you going, here are some ideas.  First and foremost is this piece of unbridled genius which I am totally in love with. Or should that be "with which I am totally in love"?  Oh cursed pedantic grammar.
