by Robin on January 13, 2010

“I cannot always follow my heart”. I wrote that in my journal the other day. Looking at the words on the page, I was kinda taken back. It felt wrong,  I so love the idea of  “Follow your bliss” and “Listen to your heart”. I mean it’s a prevalent message these days, you hear it [...]

Notebooks Covered in Pretty Paper!

by Robin on January 12, 2010

I’m supposed to be organizing my closets and my pantry and my washroom. But I’ve been under the weather since the day after Christmas, so I found something less exhausting to do…I thought I’d use up some of my extra scrapbook paper and make some cute notebooks!

by Robin on January 1, 2010
