A nice quick journal. Look at you bright lime green, proud of you Peg. We both are trying to break out of old patterns now and then.

Shocking, isn't it (the bright green :-) . . . I have a lot of bright paints I need to use . . . this spring I'm going to burst into some color!

I like the bright color for a change. What's interesting to me is how another's appreciation for something can help you see it in a different light. I follow an artist who loves chartreuse; a color which I've never before thought of or would use. And last month I bought my first chartreuse colored pencil. haha

I have purchased so many bright colors but seem to always go for the darker side--spring has me thinking of brightening up my palette 😂. I need to experiment……

I usually don't go for that lime green color, but combined with your yellow and gold colors in the "peep hole" front was perfect. Did you use regular paper for the signatures, (coffee-dyed or tea-dyed or whatever). I need to prep some papers for signatures and get back to paper crafting. I'm really enjoying the coffee cup prompts. We're finally home and I need yo get back into a routine and get some things done! TFS. Great ideas. ❤❤❤

I used plain copy paper with distress oxide inks to add a little color. Glad you are enjoying the prompts!!

Uh, you're re-using packaging yet ordering from Temu? Wow, what a contradiction of uses.

To your point, I removed the term "Sustainable" from my title tag and description. I am enjoying my craft, sharing what I do and using what I have on hand. I mentioned Temu as the cost is very low, however, in most cases I do make all of my own stencils from product I have on hand. Thanks for watching, sorry you were disappointed.
