I am almost done the CSS Foundations, and I really enjoyed my journey in learning CSS, but my question is: Where can I find small CSS projects to work on?
Any ideas would be great.

You can't change the HTML, but restyle everything with CSS. If anything look at the examples....mind blowing how different every site looks even though it's the same HTML each time.

12,719 PointsI am not far behind you Bob and this has been a question I have been asking myself.
If there is anything I come across I will give you a shout and likewise if there is anything you find I would be glad to know about.
From what I have been reading and listening so far I think the best approach could be to find complete mock ups like photoshop files. This will take out any kind of design distractions and leave you free to fully focus on the HTML and CSS.
I guess it could be even better if we can find examples where we have the design on a photoshop file done as well as the mark up complete.
As I am writing, perhaps download the Bakin cupcake files and strip away the CSS and start again. At least the practice tutorials from before will still be fresh in your mind and help as you will already be familiar with it??
