The badbaby art group is going to do a "wreck this journal' swap. I have never done one of these and with all the stress in my life, I thought it would be great fun!
We will 'wreck' someone elses journal and then send it back but I thought I would like to have one to keep as well so I bought a copy of Keri Smith's book that started this craze.
This way I can play and get to keep it and remind myself of how I felt at the time and savor the memories LOL
Here is my journal, pristine and just home from the store! I haven't even cracked the spine yet (which is one of the instructions LOL)
For our swap journals, we need to buy a composition journal with at least 100 pages. I found one in a really obnoxious green that anyone would LOVE to wreck! HaHa We then put our own instructions on each page. I had no problems coming up with the first 40 or so. It took some deep thought for the next 40 and now I am struggling for the last 20. No problem though, I have until...um....late May? early June? I better go and find out!
I will keep you posted when I do some interesting wrecking on either this journal or the swap one. :-)
My other news is that although I miss my baby Tucker and will never ever forget him, I got a new cat this week.
She is completely different in both looks and personality!
Her name is Mignonette (min-yawn-et), Minnie for short. It means 'delicate'. She is very dainty! She is also very outgoing and loves EVERYONE! She picked me out at the Animal Shelter and they estimate that she is a year old.
She and Kitty (hubby's cat) are still working out the boundaries but seem to be getting closer every day.
Isn't she a cutie?
She now sports a silver, shimmery collar because she is such a princess!

Awwww...Minnie is so pretty! I was wondering what you've been up to. Does she have a tail? Can't see one in either pic. I'm surprised you got a "girl cat" but I'm sure you'll love her just the same. Kitty, on the other hand...
Hi Cheryl,
So sorry to hear about Tucker. Your new kitty is a beauty! I just happened to see your blog link on a DIVA email....it's been a long time! Love your art!
