tickled my fancy


this was opposite us at the Arrotown Autumn Festival this year (& I loved the hazelnut butter... so did mum). One of the people in this family were also selling their artwork, didn't get a photo of the sign but it was along the lines of 'art by 5 year old, buy it now before I'm famous & you won't be able to afford it! I put pics of some of the stuff I had for sale at our stand on www.scrappykeahandmade.blogspot.com if you are interested in looking.

hmm, sorry about my crab apple spelling... to start with I'd written crap abble.. fixed the 'b's' but not the 'p' oops... hopefully I made you smile anyways...

Very funny sign! And I didn't even notice your p's and b's in the last post - I understood perfectly. Love your notebooks - looks like a lot of work in those piles.

Purging

The stuff can take over.  My stuff was covering my work surface and much of the bedroom floor.  I had to do a big sort out. I was brutal.   Stuff...ready to go. I packaged it in some storage totes I had that needed a new home (I’m waiting for my new CTMH travel system to arrive) and listed it on s local trading site.  It’s gone now. It doesn’t look pretty but I have a desk space and things are organised. The rest of my supplies now fit in this cupboard. Since the ‘purge’ I have had the space to create.  It feels good and it’s great to be able to get to my desk. A few pages made since the tidy up...and a box of 20 cards!

a catch up

Spent last night in Invers. We had a family dinner for dh's Nanny. We did a brief shop @ Farmers (none in the Wakatip) & went to Splash Palace this morning & BK for lunch (there's no BK here either!). Here are my 21 Challenge pages for the last three days. The hardest one was the Eleanor Roosevelt quote as I'm not sure what scares me - other than a lingering death while my children are still young, or one of them or dh being harmed in some way but even then I have a faith that gives me hope & assurance of a future. So I decided to apply this to my art or my creating - to try something new each day - even if it scares me. Day 4's quote was a goodie - I find that I make decisions all the time & this confirms that I am 'qualified' to make them. I used the pic of Katya for Day 6 as her blowing dandilion heads across the play area indicates this freedom & exploration of the world around. Watching her reminds me of the beauty & wonder al...
