Bird's Eye View

 I got a chuckle seeing this goose perched up on this tree. He didn't seem to care that I was pretty close taking these photos. Guess he wanted a birds eye view of Belle Isle

Waiting for Summer


Finished!

 Had so much fun making this journal! I was sorry to see it done. Lots of stuff in there....nice and fat.
 Spine
The whole book made from scratch....very happy with it.
 Three signatures and a total of 53 pages all sewn in nice and tight but each signature removable from the book if necessary. Journaled about the virus and also used prompts that I got from the internet....never can think of stuff to write otherwise.
Top of journal with lace and danglys.

Spring on Belle Isle

 Beautiful on Belle Isle today. According to a stone sign these are Japanese Cherries. A little hazy for
Photographs this morning but I was happy to be out.

Treading Water.....

....waiting for this lock down to end, to be free of this terrible virus, free to shop and go to restaurants and just enjoy life as we have in the past.
I feel pretty isolated right now but I'm trying to keep busy with my spring cleaning and my paper crafts. I'm working on a big journal right now and having fun with it. Bought some beautiful paper from Stamperia called Garden....love it.
To add insult to injury, April weather has been lousy....we've had snow twice last week and yesterday broke a record for the lowest high...39 degrees. It's not making life any easier. On Friday I am going to try to get out with my camera, weather permitting.
