They hid on a shelf, unnoticed and unused until I had to move house last year. I can't find them anywhere and I think Crayola may have stopped making them. Derwent coloursoft pencils are quite good for layering, as are Faber Castell student grade pencils. I wish I could be more helpful! I'm sorry xxxx Hope you find something that works for you - big hugs from Shroo:)xxxShroohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14149714951033411609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3685495683239120197.post-65261148140371793162015-01-26T17:55:20.625+00:002015-01-26T17:55:20.625+00:00Hello!

It DOES feel weird sometimes to record feelings...I feel like a teenager sometimes! I have some ideas which I'll post on the blog about getting started which might be helpful although it's taking me longer than anticipated as fluey grot has filled my head with old carpet and mushy peas which is interferring with my thinky processes! Ugh. <br />Thanks for the reply and the post ideas - smoshy hugs from me and some spare moulty fluff with which to decorate your cushions from The Colonel. xxxxShroohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14149714951033411609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3685495683239120197.post-25923795237964181382015-01-05T19:47:03.910+00:002015-01-05T19:47:03.910+00:00Oh gosh this is all so so so beautiful and I like ...Oh gosh this is all so so so beautiful and I like the little wonder with the butterlfly in the boy Rachael!<br />So glad to see your art again ..

I want ...Thank you so much for sharing these pages. I want to journal and I want to scrapbook - I kind of did the two merged together when I was pregnant but then I stopped again. I have this kind of mental block when it comes to putting feelings to paper, I feel like it's all cringey and forced, I don't know how to get over that block. I wish I could because the handful of times I have actually managed to - it's been such a release. Something to work on this year.<br /><br />Love all your images but the ones of The Colonel made me laugh. I recognise those expressions from when I had a kitty!<br /><br />Hope your 2015 is much happier xCarmen https://www.blogger.com/profile/07968725221313800020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3685495683239120197.post-82155490928267745312014-12-30T22:57:29.298+00:002014-12-30T22:57:29.298+00:00Oh me darlin' - can't tell you how reassur...Oh me darlin' - can't tell you how reassuring trhat is! I keep feeling like a complete weirdo when I talk to people ... I'm not seeming to be doing what I'm "supposed" to be doing emotionally or practically, but I learned long ago that life's about decisions...You gotta make 'em and stand by 'em. I've done my share of treading water in the past and it does no good at all. <br />Looking forward to hearing more about this art journal swap! I'll be blog-stalking to find out more and can't wait to see what magic you create! I'll send you emaileyness tomorrow. The Colonel sends boxes of sugared mice to the kitties (I think he's recruiting) and I send hugs - Shroo:) xxxShroohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14149714951033411609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3685495683239120197.post-50402044466161176482014-12-30T22:50:40.098+00:002014-12-30T22:50:40.098+00:00Once again you inspire me in so many ways.

Creativity oozes out of every pore in your body. I love your mermaids most, of course, but I am delighted by the work you share. You're so talented at sharing the process and the emotions that come with it. I cannot wait to see more in 2015. By the way, your courage is another inspiration. When one has the courage to let past objects go, it opens up room for new experiences. I admire you and hope to become more like you!

It's so clear to see all the care and work that's gone into it from looking at your photos. I really hope you're going to do another? There are a LOT of great Youtube vids on bookbinding and good books too (Youtube being a cheaper option). I'll get my brain in gear and sort a post out with links and stuff which might be helpful. In the meantime, you go ahead and keep being incredible ok?
