sticker and book love

Forget smoochy nights, rose and chocolates.

I have fallen for my new

Lotta Jansdotter

stickers in a big way. I've been in love with stickers for a while

(If I could fight my way through all the debris

in my studio I would show you my sticker drawer,

brimming with stickery goodness).

These are just

yummy.

some of them are in my new

moleskin like

notebooks

already.

The notebooks with little pockets to hide stickers in.

with nice lined paper just waiting to be scribbled on

just look at those end papers.mmmmmmmm.

did i mention i like stickers and books?

I hope your valentine's day is filled with such gorgeousness.

books

nnnnnnnnnnnnnn

i found this illustration at the local art college

end of year show. it really reminded me of

Maira Kalman and the regularly pored book

that Lynne so kindly sent me.

i also found this artist whose whole

project was all about

books and literature

and this carefully crafted

piece of writing caught my eye.

as well as the oversized books.

I've started making a few alterations

in this book which is going to be

one of my summer projects

now that term has finished

and i only have 843 jobs

on my list of things to do.
