Zipping along today

What a fab day I have had, its been super, I feel so much better all round from yesterdays depressing struggle. I think its all stemmed from my very late night and which has just gone to show me that my being a night owl, is so right for me. After arriving home last night after a late run to the airport, I then just had to read the rest of my book, Snatched by Mandasue Heller. It was a great book and at 2.30am I was finished. So waking up at about after ten this morning I felt so awake and ready to get some work done.

Lots of bits and pieces were brought together this morning and I finally began to get a bit further on with designing some little framed pieces.

Above are some photos of the design process of playing with bits of paper, material and vintage hankies. These are going to be small framed pieces. Some will have one flower and pot and the bigger ones will have three. A break though with designing these has happened, yeah!!! A sure case of artist's block and its just like writers block, but at least we artist's have materials with which to play about with, so that something might come together.

In addition to all this great designing work and cards being made, I squeezed in a bit of cleaning. My mum and I got stuck into the little utility area in our house, which was such a mess. We have a lot of building work going on so it was great to get all the rubble cleared and things thrown out that we really didn't need or that were broken.

I will be now starting a new book tonight and I am off tomorrow for a wee day trip to the sea side.
