live the repurposed life: pretty paper

Whenever I am working on a project that requires dyes or inks, or even paints, I always use a piece of newsprint or watercolor paper as "underpaper." A favorite tip I learned from my very talented friend, Roben-Marie. It saves cleaning up a big mess, but it also leaves me with a great piece of colorful paper to use for other projects. Last week I used some watercolor paper under a dye project. The week before I had used the same piece of paper to catch drips of paint and gesso. This week I cut sweet little hearts out of this paper and used them to make some notecards for Vintage Hip in Springfield, Alabama. Available in my Etsy Shoppe soon!

Hi Rae!

You moved, huh? Everything looks great, and these note cards are charming!! I will be making some changes soon, too! It's exciting taking the steps to grow!! Just love it!! I am currently working on the second of two spring weddings for our two middle daughters. This one is in 12 days, so I'm trying to take some time to visit. The last one was only 4 weeks ago!! Crazy, but them blissfully peaceful when they're done. And we're so excited for this new phase of their lives!!

Hugs to you!
Wishing you wild success...however you may define that!!
