Being fully in the present moment, and taking nurturing time for yourself, this is really one of the best and most important parts of art journaling. It truly is creative self-care. But it’s not always easy…
Working intuitively with collage, journaling and cut-out words, little messages of hope and love kept showing up on the page and my art journal really became a true friend.

I'm happy to see all the pink everywhere again. And this little French Louis.."ahem"..chair from the flea market would look fabulous in some new pink, don't you think? So at the design center, I found these sumptuous Lorca jacquards made in France and Italy, through Osborne & Little. They all work perfectly with the vintage velvet I found at an estate sale the other day...four yards in perfect condition for $5! Then, while working on this little project, I happened to look outside my studio window...and saw that our rainstorms have created a virtual carpeting of camellias on the soggy ground...gorgeous camellia snow! Now... I'd love to know what you think: which fabrics, and in what combinations? Or just go with one fabric... which one? Such a delightful dilemma! big, bountiful roses! when I paused to look out the window, this is the beauty I saw in the rain this incredibly beautiful cotton velvet I bought the other day at an estate sale in the neighborhood two different camellia bushes lost their blossoms in today's storm I do like this pattern with pansies and a larger whiter background... our ground could not get any soggier! this is a really pretty rose petal pattern, but my daughter thought it looked like seashells...hmmm? the side pathway looks like it needs shoveling with a snow shovel..so beautiful against the dark earth! *** Benjamin Moore paints I pulled that would work with any of these fabric choices...can you spot the one they have called identical to Pantone's Color of the Year? (hint: it's in the first column) I, for one, was really happy with Pantone's color choice for 2011... so far we need a lot of this color in our weary world *** while browsing for additional Lorca fabrics I found these gorgeous embroidered linens and velvets on the Interior Library site *** Thanks for visiting!
