Got new stuff recently? Use it! I call that "Me First Journaling". Maybe you acquired a new paper, new trim, new find….use that as an excuse to make a journal page. After you’ve used some for yourself you are free to share some, use it on special packages, and maybe even generate some new ideas for it’s usefulness before you lose it. (Come on, you don’t buy something and it gets buried before you use it?)
Cool brown die-cut letter B: K&Co. Funky blue velvet trim: gift from Kristen Robinson last month (when we got to meet for real….no pics, dang!). Brown and white wrapping paper: Hallmark. Lovely feathers: extra treat that came with a cool piece of jewelry from Karla Nathan as a blog give-away (from her neighbor’s pet!) Curly vellum die-cut: gift from Tara. Egg stamps: HERE
Bird stencil: hand cut last week. Colored staples: Target. Feathers: from our blue non-named parakeet, found at bottom of cage. We have a yellow non-named parakeet too. (You can’t buy feathers this small, it’s a Cheap Trick!) EDIT: the feathers were found at the bottom of the cage, not the birds 🙂
What will you use today? Heard this in the car this afternoon – reminded me of summers past. Did you sing to this at the top of your lungs like I did? Glad you couldn’t hear me. (T’Pau, Heart and Soul, 1987) (Oh my God, that was 20 years ago!) {EDIT: Removed video}
