I used to do collage/decoupage type stuff (a lifetime ago), along with "altering" journals or sketchbooks. I think your post may have just inspired me to pick that back up...I really enjoyed it - life just got in the way!Dorishttp://org-kaos.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834958948586521727.post-65223300774813174602010-08-15T08:17:10.406-05:002010-08-15T08:17:10.406-05:00p.s.

It always tells me "who are you kidding? your not talented" Sometimes I just keep going and ignore it and other times I have let it stop me from being successful.Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15822191038497825833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834958948586521727.post-42831205302538465922010-08-14T09:32:35.751-05:002010-08-14T09:32:35.751-05:00Leslie...I also LOVE this Alice quote.

I love that issue!<br /><br />I love words, too, Leslie. I think that is one of the reasons we connect so well. I love this idea too!

I think next year for Halloween we will do Alice...and I would love for us all to have a Mad Hatter tea party ...but I digress!! Yes, I think so many times we are so afraid of "messing up" ...as if "perfection" is the goal. that can just stop us in our tracks and sometimes cement us in fear. So go ahead and experiment and make tons of happy messes!<br />You comment today on my blog made total sense Leslie. when I decided to start blogging...I knew I was going to be authentic. we don't have to tell all or spill out our guts but blogging gives us the opportunity to express all of oursELVES...our humanity. thank you for your support and encouragement sweet Leslie! I just realised how fast time has just flown by! I have wanted to open up a shop for maybe over 3 years! I think that you should do what Kelly said in class-just go for it! I look forward to when you will do the same!xxxsoraya nulliahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14163510829390285349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834958948586521727.post-85241078083648159492010-08-13T15:43:01.827-05:002010-08-13T15:43:01.827-05:00:-) Hey - I like words, too!

Wow, I am enjoying catching up with you...Hi friend!<br />Wow, I am enjoying catching up with your blog and being inspired! I love that Alice quote and moreover, love how you used it as a jumping off point to discuss possibility. You really are such a positive influence - how wonderful that you put yourself out there to inspire others to do the same - a life lived well.<br />I also love your new blog look & your FAB new picture! And the suggestion to start collecting words is a great one - I will do that!<br />To answer your question, when I am really stuck, I put it (a project or idea) aside until the muse hits OR I will do the opposite and work through it, but without trying to think too much. Sometimes letting go for me means to try and stop thinking! It's usually in that space of releasing all expectations that the best work comes, xoxoxKristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09492839042151189777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834958948586521727.post-30984016901676873652010-08-13T10:00:09.494-05:002010-08-13T10:00:09.494-05:00Do you collect phrases, as well as words?

I should write down the ones that strike me that way - there's something soothing about a good word or phrase. <br /><br />Tags and ribbons and words would be lovely! :-)<br /><br />Do you ever write a "found poem" out of your words? Draw out half a dozen or so from your envelope, and create a poem out of them?Srsly Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00432432490958157902noreply@blogger.com
