Life was relatively calm today. Yoga, errands, bird seed out for the no-tail red squirrel; I mean birds. The dog and I even played outside for a little while. This made room for my mind to be open for some crafting, and a few notebooks appeared. Well, a few notebook covers have appeared. Here's my …
Check out this stencil by Dina Wakely. I did this amazing new thing where I cleaned my desk and did an basic visual inventory (opened all the random boxes of crap) and voila! There she was! I plan on using a few of these images on book covers and maybe do a canvas or two …
