3 Days and Counting

I feel like such a bear.....I have been hibernating inside working 24/7 getting ready for this weekends Creative Palette Convention at St. Marys Georgia.  In some ways I am making progress.....in others I feel as though I am way behind.  If messes count towards progress then I am on my way.  Today will be spent doing the last of any gluing, painting and sealing.....and working on anything that can be fit in between those processes......Wednesday making sure I have everything on my list and start pulling it together....Thursday.....will be Ready Set Pack and GO!!!!!!!!

From day one of launching my website years ago.....I have always said, Everyone has a story to tell......and I have always tried to do that with my artwork.  Just as you have seen clothes come back into fashion from years ago......so have journals.  24 and pregnant I was making journals just like you see everywhere you look today.....so 25 years later I am making a come back with what I did in my younger days.....here's a peek at one of the things I will be selling in my vendor booth.

The Paper Book..........

The Paper Book.......Everyone has a story to tell....yours can begin within the pages of our handmade one of a kind Paper Book....use it as a journal diary or sketchbook.  This 6 x 6 book has 75 sheets (150 pages) of heavy bright white paper waiting on your notes lists & doodles.....Paper Books will vary in size.....and will also be available filled with antique sheet music and book pages, wallpaper scraps, vintage letters and various other papers ready for you to play with....you can write or draw or tear one out to use in your next art project.  Each hardboard cover is recycled from various sources....in some Paper Books you may find snippets of antique sheet music or 1800's book pages on the inside covers as well as various other elements.....Each Paper Book is bound with metal rings to allow you to easily add refill or remove pages or other findings.

Start your Story today......with The Paper Book!

The Notecards are ready.....the Paper Books are ready.....the Paper Packages are almost ready.....the Original Collages.....some are still a work in progress....but getting there.....and several other things are already packed.

I keep thinking of things to add to my list to carry with me......I am one that believes one should always be ready for the unexpected.....be prepared and you can handle anything.....the Duck Tape is already packed!!!

I have had the music on my blog going for hours.....had my diet sprite.....said a few good mornings to some friends and am now ready to hit the hardwood floors barefoot and running!

Thanks for all the encouragement and support I have been receiving via comments, emails and snail mail.
