I think I can see the light...

Spring is trying so hard to make an appearance in the cold white north but has been set back continually by random snow storms and harsh cold winds. It is quite similar to me and my creativity. After the winter doldrums I can feel a stirring. The tulip bud of creativity is send up sturdy pointed leaves but the beauty is still hiding in the safety of the dirt.

I managed to finish binding a book of pages I created as part of a workshop led by LK Ludwig. It's not the exact same class as the one that I linked it looks like many of the same techniques are covered. I took this class in December of 2009. Yes, it took me over a year and some months to finally use the papers I created in making the book. I love the way it looks and cannot wait to start using it for journaling.

I am working on making more. I have gotten such great feedback so far.

I want to add a personal thank you to Randi. You have been such an inspiration and my personal cheerleader! I could not have done any of this without your push. You are amazing and I cannot wait to see what you come up with next!
