You're probably wondering...

...what my focus word is for 2017, right?

These reminders are  going to be EVERYWHERE!

Each one sports a feather, so the lesson is light and easy.

Rich, isn't it?

I love the beauty of this organic leaf and feather combination.

Orange and red has a LOT of punch.

Like a flower, opening is filled with grace.

It's possible books might be involved.

I love the word opening; it speaks to me of new possibilities, travel, creativity, abundance, gifts and gratitude flowing into and through my life.  It is filled with the awareness, understanding and discernment I welcome for 2017.

Have you chosen your 2017 focus word yet?  I'd love to see it in the comments below.

Another signature...

...is completed (well, we all know one could keep adding don't we?), this time in shades of rich fall colour.

I was amused to find a story of a wood sprite emerging.  Where did she come from?

The signature is filled with secret pockets for extra photos, tags, and ephemera.

Dried ferns and vegetation abound.

The Gelli prints used throughout are rich with colour and texture that complement the greenery

and I've used John's marvellous photos from a stash he gifted me with some time ago.

There are feathers everywhere (mostly culled by animal-health-technologists-in-training - thank you Rochelle!)

that add to the visual of a wood sprite's habitat.  Whatever this sprite's intent, I'm glad she popped in for a visit!
