Ready to Launch

Like the song says - All dressed up and no place to go.

Well, commercial greatness eludes Handmade by Feronia for another day! All psyched up to sell my cards this morning, ready to go, cards all packaged up and looking pretty...and the shop was shut. Nevermind. Six months ago, this would have been a bad omen. Now I figure, well - go back next week. But ring them first! I'll keep you posted.

Excusez-moi but I am an artiste

Now that my little black doggie friend has been firmly on the leash for a while, I find that my creatvity has returned to a very pleasing degree and in ways I didn't imagine. I have always been ok with words (though perhaps you disagree...), but truly artistic stuff has always been beyond me. At school, in my art class, people would laugh when I would take drawings out of my folio (isn't school just a delight). So it has come as a surprise to me that I have been able to make a couple of cards on which I...draw. And it looks pretty ok. At least, I'm happy with them and my DH who is never one to call a spade a shovel thinks they look alright too. In fact, tomorrow I am going to chance it at a local book shop and see if they want to buy some...eep. Wish me luck :)
