WOYWW

Here's what I'm working on now, or rather have just finished...


The first is the cover of the Sisterhood of the traveling sketchbook I mentioned awhile back. 13 of us "sisters" have decided to each get a sketchbook, do a spread in each and mail them around the world so when we get them back they'll be full of original, unique art on the theme of the months of the year. You can see my first spread that I did a few posts back. Now I finally got the cover and the sign in page done, and I'm ready to mail it out this week.. For the sign in page I included tags that each person can decorate as much or as little as they want. To see the other sisters sites, you can go to their blogs listed on my sidebar. It's getting exciting!
The last photo is of my desk at work, I sometimes forget which is my tea and which is my jar of water for painting.  I haven't drank the paint water but I have painted with tea  before!

Don't forget to stop by other desks by clicking on the WOYWW link and also go to whimsical wednesday for some whimsy there on the new link at the top of my sidebar...

  5. Beautiful cover and a great idea for the sign in page! I've often "painted with coffee" when I'm working. Oops!
