goodie two shoes

Finished up a few pages – loving my new carved thorns.  Making tools and using them.  Very fulfilling. Yes, I keep re-visiting this quote.  It's a fave.  Yes, I keep re-using the same colors.  They are faves.  After mentioning that I wear my palette I realize I live in my palette too.  Yep – even have red walls, sage and mustard too.  No, I don't have black walls….just black furniture 🙂

Made an evidence page of my find – even took a rubbing of the sole.  Thanks for all your comments about my boots!  I've been wearing them every day.  I haven't worn suede boots in years – loved those slouchy pixies from my DD* days and wish I still had them as Fallon is dressing in 80s fashion this week at school.  Tomorrow is the Frankie Says Relax shirt.  (It's a repro from Target….my signed-by-the-band original T is retired from wear.)  *duranduran

Evidence of a Lucky Girl:  This perfect cup arrived from Carin – she gets me ;)  And Theresa gave me the heads up on the scrabble thing – Xs & Os glued into place, which I scooped up from ETSY:  RememberMeEmily.  And how about that cute card from Sam?  Priceless.

One week to go on the current Crusade.  After Shaping Up, we are now practicing Portion Control.   What I am talking about?  Come see!  Lots of crusaders have already shared their interpretations – so fun to learn from one another as we all try something at the same time.  Congrats to Cath Sheard for being the most recent Top Hat Pick.

    Michelle –
    Once again, great journal and evidence pages! Love the way the colors just go together.
    I have been working with some stencils I made for the Shape Up crusade, using them again for the Portion Control crusade. Unfortunately neither crusade is *quite* finished. Too many ideas, can’t get them all down…can’t decide on colors…etc
    Always look forward to your posts, they make my day!
    Until later,
    Judy

    This journal page is absolutely gorgeous, wow!!! I love roses, that quote is a really great one. This is a colour combo that I would never have thought of and it looks great togethor, isn’t colour amazing!
    Your boots are very cool and you got such a great deal. I also am wearing suede boots this winter, given to me as a gift, they are the best boots I have worn in a long time. Like you I have been reluctant to buy or wear suede boots too much care, but no problems so far.
    Enjoy your day thanks for posting this beautiful page today, it is a visual feast. Sam’s card is very, very special treasure. Handmade gifts from the heart are the best.

    your pages are so rich with layers. The shoe rubbing was a brilliant idea. I just got some new shoes and I will have to check out the soles.
    I love your xo cup, too.

    WOW… the first page looks like a canvas… It would fit perfect as a decoration in the house…
    I loooove the layering and the depth that are in it. Perfect…
    The second page made me smile..
    Great gifts, but I think Sams is the most precious one…
    Time is still so limited… I wish I could participate in the challenge, but there are a lot of TO DO’s on my list (luckily also some creative ones..)… but you never know like the last crusade I could finally participate on the last minutes;..

    I guess I’ll never not be stunned by how cool your pages are. That boot is so good. Love the 3D effect (reminds me of Coraline–you seen it?) and the colors. Those little boots stickers are perfect for this. yummy X many.

    Wow… constantly amazed. I agree wiht Chris. Very Coraline. And if you and the kids haven’t seen it, I have only two words: need to.
    So many ideas so little time.
