Enjoyable Things:
trees • the sound of leaves scuttling along an empty street • overcast, cloudy days • rain • memories • deep and meaningful conversations • creative use of language • foreign languages • old maps • things that flutter • browns and earth toned colors • the soulful notes of a cello • gypsy music • rich textured fabrics • dandelion puffs • plump, velvety moths• classic children’s literature and the accompanying illustrations

Hi Cassandra, thanks for your lovely comments on my blog. I cannot see an email address on your site, but to answer your question about Dusty Concord – It is a Distress Ink made by Ranger and endorsed by Tim Holtz, you should find it easily enough if you google it. Best Wishes, Rachel (www.creativeflight.blogspot.com)

Hi Cassandra! I sure appreciate the lovely comment you made on my blog and am thrilled that you entered my giveaway. You asked how I created the look on the cover of the journal. It is done with Titanium white heavy body acrylic and stencils. I learned the technique in a Sarah Whitmire workshop online offered by Joggles. I have the link to Joggles on the right hand side of my blog if you wish to have a look. Lovely to “meet” you! Heather

I just discovered Art Journaling and I’m taking my first writer’s workshop in a language that is not my first language. It is fun and challenging to try to express yourself in both unknown laguages:English & Art.

Wow, I’m glad I stumbled upon your site. Accidentally clicked on it in one of the WordPress forums looking for an answer to: How do you create pagebreaks. Haha. Your work is inspiring. Do you do collaborations? 🙂
