I corrected my mistake on my mixed media ATC.

I thought I'd share with you my corrected ATC from an ATC Swap on Willowing.ning.com. I triple checked the spelling this time. he he he

What a BIG mistake? Can you spot it?

These two ATC's were created for the July ATC Swap on willowing.ning.com for Anette Husum. This month's theme was 'Dreams'.

It wasn't until I scanned them into my computer that I noticed my HUGE mistake.Woops! I can't believe I never noticed it until now. 

So Annette, if you read this, I will be sending you another ATC to replace my dodgy one.

I'm so glad I can laugh at myself. 

Can you see my mistake? Has this ever happened to you? I'm so glad this was only an ATC and not a large painting.

I went to see amazing artist Jane Davenport

Last week I finally got the chance to visit Jane Davenport's 'The Institute of Cute', located in the beautiful Bryon Bay.  We were on our way back from visiting family in Queensland, and I convinced my husband to alter our planned route back to Melbourne so that I could stop at Jane's gorgeous store. Ever since I discovered Jane's blog I have wanted to visit her super cute. 

Unfortunately I did not get to meet the lovely Jane herself. However when I arrived, I was greeted by the wonderful Fiona, who was working there at the time. Talk about great customer service. What a gem she is. She seemed just as excited about Jane's store and its gorgeous items as I was. If it wasn't for my husband and kids, that were waiting for me patiently, I would have definitely spent longer there.

I ended up buying a beautiful A4 hardbound journal, an Aquah brush pen, an Acylic paint dabber and a blending pencil. As you can see from the above photo, the cute lady bug bag I'm holding was a free gift with my purchases. I love it. There were so many more things I wanted, but I thought I'd save the rest to buy from Jane's online store. I have my eye on some of the items pictured below, as well as some more of the art supplies, obviously =D.

I walked out of this store with the biggest smile on my face. This visit to Jane's awesome store was the highlight of my holiday for sure.
