I spent some time this morning clearing the debris from my work table. Lots of remnants to scoop up and throw away….or wait, put in my journal!
And because it's Tuesday…one more page. This took three minutes as I saved the lovely details from a Linda Warlyn package – she always adds the most special embellishments and I treasure them by saving on a page.
My friends *get* me, don't they? I have a beautiful stack of cards today…AND A DOZEN RED ROSES. What a terrific surprise! Back in college my friend Anne used to give me the same card every year…"hope your Valentine's Day is less pathetic than mine". It wasn't meant to be serious, just a statement about the unreasonable pressure this day can bring. Take the pressure off – share your love. It will come back to you.
Sending my love to you. Happy Valentine's Day.

I first found the scribbler site in 2007 (see post here). Had alot of fun messing around over there and it revived my interest sketching off screen. I just learned they have an updated version, equally as fun and addictive. Visit HERE to give it a go.
Have you made your Valentine's yet? I'm still finishing mine. Love the new LOVE stamp, don't you? Designed by Louise Fili, see site HERE. Imagine your design on a postage stamp? Very cool.
And before today is over…..

It's been a while since I've posted Ruby Tuesday journal pages. I still work on them….sometimes working out ideas for art, and sometimes just collecting debris from my studio table and even the kitchen counter. These spreads are to support the latest crusade, No. 60 ~ I HEART (fill in the blank). You know I love stencils and masks. I sometimes forget you can simply use them with pens or pencils (right)…not always necessary to get them wet. However, when you do use paint be sure to flip over for a monoprint (left).
And after much taste-testing I'm finding that I really <3 Dark Magic….no, not the sinister kind, the K-cup kind. There are others I do enjoy, but this one is my favorite this week so it went in my journal. That's why we do pages like this…so we can recall and reflect on things we love/loved.

In addition to my workshop at Valley Ridge, and the two in New Jersey, I am coming to Colorado in April! My friend Nancy Brill, has made the arrangements for a three day event in Lafayette, just north of Denver. I love extended workshops – it's a time to devote yourself completely to the process with a community of like-minded artists. We learn as much from each other as we do from the class agenda because that's what happens when there is a gathering of eager, enthusiastic, curious beings. To learn more about the workshop, the venue, and the registration details, visit my page HERE. EDIT: this class has been cancelled.
Have a fun Superbowl Sunday. Graham's Eagles and my Saints aren't in so we have to go with the home town boys. Go Giants!
