play day!
Today was my first of two "play days" in the studio. Trying to work without an assignment was hard! I am so used to working on things that just need to get done, that when I have a chance to play, I realized that I almost don't know what to do with myself. I ended up working on a bunch of backgrounds, deciding to take my own advice from my second book, that when you don't know what else to do, just work on backgrounds!
I also played around on some little 5x5 canvases with an idea that I had for a series of drink coasters, then I uploaded them to my cafepress store. I think they came out really cute!
I think tomorrow I'll be more in the groove for playing, today I felt so rusty! It was like play??? What's that!!??
