Long Absence!

Hi everyone. It's been so long. But I have good reasons. Life and economy in general sucked up all my mojo. I had more bad days than good days, but I want go back to doing something I love, and perhaps it will make life better, yes?

I've been journaling, in SMASH BOOKS, by K&Co. To me it's quick and easier than scrapbooking. I still do scrapbooking, but sometimes when you're on the go, it's easier just to "smash" it down into a book.

In this journal entry, I wrote about mistakes I've made, and moving on. I used the new Saturated Canary digital stamp by Krista Smith. You can find it HERE. I ADORE Krista Smith's art, she is just the most amazing talented artist. I can't get over how she cranks these stamps out. I really want to color them all!


Here are the colors I used:

Hair: W9, W5
Skin:
E13, E02, E00
Shirt/bow: YR16,Y35, YG09, warm grey 90%
Skirt: B16, B12, cool grey 70%
Shoes: C9, C5
