Taking it slowly…

Hello, Monday !

This weekend was all about leaf raking with the hubby. We made a start on the big yearly task. With 6 big maples in the backyard, we still have a lot to do. Yay for teamwork !

I was also working on the gifties for my mom’s office staff.

Every year, the boss’s wife gives me a contract for 40 or so of whatever crafty thing I come up with to add to the gift bags that she makes for all the staff.

This is what I came up with this year :

Car Jewelry !

If you drive in big city traffic like they have in Montreal, I figure a little message of calmness and something pretty to look at hanging from your mirror is a nice gift.

The charms are made out of self drying clay and the words are stamped with a rubber stamp alphabet. My friend Kim shared her technique with me. Thanks, Kimmypoo !

I received my new blank Moleskine art journal but haven’t taken the time to start using it yet.

I am focused on the craft fair in December right now and I am missing the real arty me.

I promise myself to find at least an hour, and splatter some paint around on a couple of those pristine pages this week.

Azzy and I are ready  for the day.

How about you ?

May you have a slow but sure Monday, Beautiful Ones.

Big Love !
