thoughtful thursday
words @selfamused:
when reading, we don't fall in love with characters' appearance.
we fall in love with their words, their thoughts, their hearts.
we fall in love with their souls.

get ready.....
get ready for whimsical wednesday! i belong to several on-line art journaling groups. another member posted a photo of a prompt her young daughter gave her. (a prompt is a nudge in the process of creating; as in offer words, materials, etc.) it was so pretty. let's follow this young prompter and create something! it doesn't have to be an art journal page. it could be a postcard, a note card, a picture. decoration for the upcoming holidays. begin to formulate in your mind what you will make with her prompt:
*pink
*blue
*brown
*black
*messy beautiful

did you know you can still purchase old fashioned hair spray? my artist daughter told me hair spray could be used as a fixative for art media, like chalk and pastels. it's cheaper than the type sold in arts and crafts stores. the quest began. i found hair spray; aqua net in the tall metal can, just like what mom used when i was a kid. good to know that some things don't change!

whimsical wednesday
whimsical wednesday at the whimsey project! our day to do lots of whimsical activities. today we embark on the quest for unfortunate names. what is an unfortunate name? an unfortunate name is one that creates unintended consequences (mostly for the so named). for example, would you like to be named crystal ball? such a person exists! if you have a unfortunate name, share it. if you know of someone who has an unfortunate name, share it. you can find unfortunate names by doing research, then share it! or you can make them up and share them!
here's a few i have for example:
*crystal ball
*windy gale
*beau hunter
