I miss you.

i know this feeling .

Just not this

'Amelie' is my favourite movie of all time ... it brings joy to my heart , just seeing these

images and hearing the soundtrack..... it must be the most beautiful romances , ever made in the history of romantic films.

It is the type of romance that i dream i will experience one day .. maybe soon?

Brown paper bag

Hello , Bonjour ..

It's been a while .. so im here! ... today while cleaning out my room ... i found this paper bag i drew on at tafe one day .... at the time a had all these strange questions rolling around in my head( which i always wonder about )... so i wrote them down , asking someone? maybe? or simply publishing thoughts.

Anyway , so i scanned it in for you all the enjoy .. who ever you may be!

Today , my good friend/sculpture making buddie Declan turned the huge , massive , wonderous 18! , it is all too exiciting to buddle in your arms .. i know.

So i spent all of my weekend .... being crafty with my gift making ideas , which was highly successful! ... (i shall update you with photos , once the package is opened to its rightful owner ... otherwise it may ruin the surprise! )

It was also an exellent day .. because ... i saw many lovely strangers , had a picini in the park while reading the paper, went to the libary ( got a new CD) , found three vintage dresses at an opp shop , met a stranger from other country , smiled lots , laughed lots , made paper cranes and went for a run with the oh so beloved' Biddy' ... which i sometimes call 'Baby' ... shes a young bright boarder collie .. who likes cuddles and laying in the park.

So thats my day ..... sweet , warm and busy as a bee.

I hope your loving Autumn as much as me! xxx

P.S i also found this bunny earred beanie .... which makes me happy

i see the world though candy wrappings

5 sensations

Last night , i decicied after each day ... instead of writting , i might start drawing the 5 sensations ... my favourite - taste , smell , feeling , sight and sound.

So this is where it starts :)

enjoy.

When you wake up , let me know.

This a combination of , an experimentation of water colours on wooden
board and a sketch i did last night. Brain storming for my art major.

ghost like i think . Is she alive or is he dead?

Almond hearts and Love spells

Theres exactly a week till a day of love is celebrated around the world . Covered in the sweetest expressions of the colour red , butterfly kisses , hearts , chocolate boxe's and roses.

I've been busy laying in bed reading " i have a bed of buttermilk panacakes " ........ also drinking alot of coffee and tea ( to keep me awake) , baking banana bread and attempting to eat healthy , to make up for my three day weekend .

I found this tutorial of how to make paper roses ..... if you want to get crafty and surprise your valentine , i had a huge phase .. where i had hundreds in all different sized using different coloured cardboards and paper.

If your wondering where abouts i got the mega cute tin , it come free with a packet of almonds from the supermarket :)

Alright dearys im off to finish this book ... with ellilot smith singing to me .

Love , That Girl x
