mantra monday & photo a day

MANTRA MONDAY

goodness....i lost track of my days with it being school holidays and only just realised it was 'mantra monday' about an hour ago. this card may have been created in a rush but at least i made it in time.....PHEW!!! my card affirmation is - i create with love - which is pretty much self-explanatory. the background is metallics - blue, green and hints of purple but it doesn't show up too well in the pic.

JANUARY PHOTO A DAY

this morning, reece and i went to the library and i thought i'd take a pic of the mural which is painted on the outside of the library wall....the obvious theme being 'books'. i couldn't get it all in one view so i cut it into two photos.

  10. I am stuck watching over another teacher's class, but there are computers here, so of course I take the time to surf my friend's blogs! hehe

    Very cool mural! It's like a cross between "Bedknobs and Broomsticks" and "Cinderella".

    The copmputer here is horrid, so I can't see your image too well, but it's damn good for a rush job! :)
