art therapy
My page in Sue's journal for our Alphabetica round robin. A simple cut-and-paste job, but oh so therapeutic and fun. I don't think I will ever get tired of playing with paper. Such simple bliss. Plus, I was able to finally use some of the vintage children's books I've been hoarding for myself. Aren't those old illustrations the best??




that looks fantastic! i love it. those old children's book illustrations have such charm. i've been getting my therapy lately by painting with emma. it is so relaxing.

I knew there was a reason why I've saved all those old children's books! I love your page. It's so colorful and playful.

Debra, this is so lovely. However, I don't know if it' fair that you are really raising the bar for the next person who has to work in that book... ;-) Can hardly wait to see it in person!
