A Daytrip - Galena and Moline!

I saw something again yesterday I don't see very often....the sunrise!!! We were off to Galena to see Jess and the girls at Galena Beads. I had 4 journals and hoped that they would like them....I believe they were pleased! They ordered more, gave some reviews, a few more baubles and off we went! There were literally THOUSANDS of Boy Scouts in town! Had to visit Sue's Ink and Stamp, of course, before going...love her shop....and talk art with a terrific shop owner, Sue! EVERYONE needs to visit Galena at some point.

This is the latest journal, it's a bound book, made by hand, and embellished with Vintaj findings and charms. And of course the Paper Whimsy image draws your eye to the center.

Then off to the production of Cabaret that my oldest GD, Brittany Janelle, was in. FABULOUS show...extremely well done! Hard to believe they were HS kids...and the 2 male leads are just Freshmen!! And Salley Bowles...niece to my old HS friend...will knock you out! BRAVO! Kudos to all! A few pics to follow later....

Enjoy what's left of the weekend....and CREATE something. I, for one, had a terrific Saturday.
