The gathering of supplies. . .
New A4 diary. . . pretty fabrics, ribbon, lace and sweet embellishments.
What I was suppose to be doing today was updating my new diary with all the dates and appointments contained on scraps of paper and numerous post-it-notes, which are floating haphazardly around my desk.
What I actually did today. . .
hmmm, well I made this pretty French inspired cover for my new diary.
Now doesn’t that look better than the plain boring looking black diary!!
Everything about it is a perfect fit for ME. . . and my creative space.
It will be a pleasure to check its pages each day and write myself little notes.
There’s already a reminded to follow my dreams. . . for who knows were they may lead us.
For 2012 I’m dreaming of a triumphant year ahead filled with new and exciting challenges.
Perhaps tomorrow I will get around to actually filling in the diary. . .
and then (fingers crossed) I might even happen to write pattern instructions for this project.
. . . or I may get distracted by pretty fabrics again!!
Hugs ~ Kerryanne
I’ll be partying with these gorgeous girls week.

“as” always is what I meant to say. Also would love to make one of these (in my spare time…lol) to remind me to “always follow my dreams”.
