 There are pitfalls to being a paper artist as well as many triumphs and joys. 

 Constant paper clippings that I can never keep cleaned up, in face sometimes I feel like they follow me through the house like a cloud. 
Cobwebs!  Yes, I hate to admit it but occasionally my art gets in the way of my housework.  But it's worth every stolen moment to find myself in creating art.

Just For Fun

The whit paper bag from Hallmark just called to me.  I loved the fonts that they used on it but I thought it needed some color.  What do you think?

Come On In!

Now this was fun!  It took a long time but it's pretty much the way I wanted it to turn out.  The little doors lead to myself.  They can be opened and closed and they signify that when I'm here journaling I'm me.  It's one place in the world that is totally mine. I put little fasteners for knobs on the door and tied them together with a ribbon.  Inside is a vista which is a graphic from Graphics Fairy.  So are some of the other graphics - the pig, the funny little girl, the big bird and rose, the nest with the checkered eggs is from a MacKenzie-Childs catalog.  Now aren't you just itching to have your own special place?  It's easy, just get an empty notebook or even a notebook, cut out and paste some wonderful images, add your own thoughts and your on your way!!!!
