Freewheelin’ Friday (#21)

I buy a lot of my scrap supplies in the “Artist Store”.
It is not a scrapbook store – they don’t have Tim Holtz ink and 12 x 12 paper
(they do sell Copic markers though!) but since I’m more into art journaling
I come there often to get me plain paper, permanent markers and so on.
Do you know the smell of an artist store…??? Hmmmm!!!

Long time ago, that store provided me with a “savings card” and every time
I bought something, they wrote the amount on my card.

Feel it coming?
Yep! Last week,
my card was full!!!!

That meant that they
calculate 15 % of the
total amount on my
card, and I could
“free shop” for that!
YEAY!!!

I’ve been glancing
at this box with
oil pastels for
a while and now
I went for it!
I even had money left
to buy permanent
markers and
aquarelle paper!

Now THAT’S a fun way of shopping!!!

Can I take a deep sigh…?

A REALY DEEP SIGH….???

OK, done. I needed that!

You all know my new workshop “A Creative Art Journey” starts Friday, don’t
you? And of course I started working on it in time… but after I wrote a number
of lessons for it, it somehow didn’t feel right… don’t know why… I just didn’t
“like them” a lot. So I thought about it, talked about it with my beloved but
kept on going anyway… and suddenly last week I knew “what was wrong”
and I decided to go back to the beginning and change it… oooohhhh..
so little time left and right at that moment I decide to go back and start over.
