Dispatch From LA: Into Africa

Into Africa

The last of the Good & Plenty batch of mailart has gone home to roost.

Hopefully my latest batch headed for Marrekech and Johannesburg will find their way across the Atlantic and somehow manage to find their new homes on either end of that continent. Here's a sneak preview. More to come in a week or so.

Mama Moss has one of THESE headed her way. Have you heard of the Presto Printing Mailbox? Me neither until last week. Now I can send M.M. email and photos of me and the cat posse performing various acrobatic stunts in the front yard. Seems easy enough to operate even for those befuddled by computers and email. We'll see.

Have you seen THIS blog? I just discovered it. Pretty shoes, cool crafty things, and lots of fabric. Bari J's. Who knew? Did I mention the shoes? I only own a few pairs of shoes myself, you know...the basic work shoes, house shoes, and going out shoes. All are variations of the same thing and mostly all KEEN'S , but I am endlessly fascinated by pretty shoes. Sometimes I think of buying some and wearing them around the house. But my feet might hurt. Or I might spill something on them like a melting fudgesicle for example. Or the cat posse might chew them and carry them off into the yard.

HERE another fun U-tube video showing a fellow flipping through his sketchbook. Very cool. If I were you I'd hightail it over there and have a look-see.

Finally, get yourself over HERE to see these visual journals by Barb Berry. As far as I'm concerned a person cannot gawk at too many visual journals. Speaking of which, here's a page from my current journal.

Okay. One more very very last final thing. This is IT. I swear. Check out the MOOD BOARD Contest entries over on Decor 8. You gotta scroll down. I am seriously digging these very !@#*&$ (insert expletive) much.
