the other day i read francesca's post about inspiration striking in the most unusual of places...so today i had tons of fun messing around with my millions of paper punches, self adhesive vinyl and the pile of soft backed sketchbooks that i deconstructed (took out the staples) then reconstructed (stitched the spine.)
anyway, my point is that my inspiration struck, rather uninspiringly, while having a bath...frank had stuck up an alphabet freize (sp? blogger won't let me check my spelling lately, should that be i before e?) of those spongey letter shapes that stick to your tiles when wet...i looked up, saw them and thought how cool it would be to have those shapes all over a book cover...so i had a go. it was fun.

They are fun, I like the black & white one.
"I before E, except after C"! these are lovely by the way. i'm a big fan of dots and arrows.
receive is correct! no rule change...i just checked with my dictionary as i thought i was going mad!
wow, such graphic and strong patterns, very different to your normal layered, textured stuff. I'm off to read that blog post now, been waiting for inspiration to arrive, she's about 5 weeks late!
It turned out really good!
