the HANKY in his pocket

Still working away on the book! I am almost finished though, and absolutely LOVING the way it is turning out. The photo below shows one of my particularly favorite pages so far--it is inspired by a red hanky that my grandma gave me about two years ago, that has mascara stains, and that will always be one of my most treasured items. I added words and photos to to this page, and I while I really like the way it turned out, I can't help but love the simplicity of the background painting.

Enjoy your weekend everyone! I am going to be crafting away and getting ready for my trip home (and loving every minute of it!) And, don't forget....it's the random reasons.
