COLLECTIVE SKETCHBOOK

















The Tea & Crayons sketchbook has made it's merry way through towns and cities all over the UK, from Bristol to London to Northampton so I can tell you I was very excited to see an ever so neatly addressed parcel with something heavy inside had made its way to the sleepy village where I live.

I opened it with eagerness and I was thrilled to see a pink note had been left for me from Kay, I originally thought it had been stamped because her handwriting is super neat! It was filled almost halfway with the most beautiful sketches (Rachel's florals and butterflies are gorge), hand written note (which i LOVE), thoughts ( I love Fritha's little notes and cutesy animal illos), receipts, papers, stamps and adorable illustrated bits and pieces. It is precious. So precious that I haven't done anything in it as yet, only carefully stick in Kay's note and draw some tiny hearts, diamonds and lightning bolts around it.

I wanted to share with you some of the gorgeous pages from inside, I'm so eager to fill it in with little illustrations and hand written notes, but I'm even more eager to see what Abby and Rachel will do once they get it! Once it's finished we are hoping to do something special with it. Hope you enjoy looking at these little snippets!

Such a nice idea, and a lot more inspiring than the chain letters one used to receive as a kid!

Aw I can't wait til this comes back around again! I reckon we'll probably have 2 goes each then it'll be filled - then it can go in a museum as an Important Artistic Artefact hehehe :D
