Pick Up the Pieces

Hallo! 

Do you know what makes my day? Talking and chatting with loved ones and friends. Thank goodness for technology. Tonight, I was able to cook dinner and talk with my mom! Of course, it doesn't compare to being in the same room with my mom, let alone the same time zone, but I am so thankful for what we have today. 

Do you know what else I love?
Mail!

Just yesterday, the post delivered this:
Inside was this:
Fun scraps of paper with an inspiring message. 

It might look like trash to you, but I ♥ it!

Was it a coincidence that this note was written on watercolor paper with rounded corners?
Just last week, I created all of these tiny rounded-corner, watercolor rectangles to inspire me. 
On the back, I wrote 100 Ideas by Keri Smith.
I have mentioned the artist Keri Smith before on this blog, and have even posted some completed ideas from 100 Ideas on this blog. (Does that make sense?) I could have printed them out but I am sans printer at the moment, and it was fun to play and create with these exercises. It makes it all the more special. 

I am excited to pick up one of these pieces and play. I even placed them in a pretty blue bowl I found. 

Do you want to play? We totally should!
