Neutrals (11)

Neutral-thinking exploration

• Yesterday I placed holds online for several library books; there's no interlibrary activity yet per covid-19 guidelines so I had to select from only those books available on the shelves at my local library.
• One of my nephews is now affianced to his sweetheart.
• I will start picking kale from our back-deck-railing flower box this week.

I am sure I commented last night but maybe forgot to push "publish"! Happens! Am I seeing cutouts from the scribble cards to make this enchanting forest? Congrats to your nephew. Yay for your flower box vegetable garden.

Carol, BINGO! YES, you are seeing trimmings from the scribble cards. I just can't see those trimmings as discard material! The thicker 'trees' came from when I trimmed the card down to a 4x6" size. The thinnest two 'branches' in the foreground came one the card had been mounted on a supporting piece of card stock and needed to just the slimmest bit of trimming to make the card and stock fit each other perfectly. Very satisfying to have new art be sparked by trimmings and very satisfying to have you notice! Good eyes!!

Fun how suddenly those 'leftovers' suddenly form a forest!

And snippets of the children's classic of Little Women are floating by in the background. Isn't it crazy wonderful? Thanks for stopping by, Simone!
