| Time for another art trip to Portland, Or. And I am having fun driving myself crazy...er...I mean, getting ready.... Of course I have to make things. Much more fun than figuring out the clothes to pack. |
 |
| I need a travel journal.... This will do. I like green and I am going to the Uptown Stamp Show to forage through postage stamps. But, it is kind of plain, don't you think? SEE the last trip to Uptown Stamp Show here |
 |
| Hummmmmm This is better and Portland IS The City of Roses.... |
 |
| I really want this Cavallini paper to line the inside covers but no one in San Francisco seems to have it, And online shipping costs as much as the sheet of paper so I hope I will find it in Portland. |
 |
| A little stamp action on the cover.... Altered Book From Previous PDX Trip here |
 |
| And, I needed a tin to carry some art supplies. I am going to a letter writing social at NOUN. You can check it out right here |
 |
| So, here is my book, ready to toss in my carry-on and work on in PDX. I am hoping I can talk my PDX pals to work on a page to add to my book too.... |
 |
| Isn't this fun? I was browsing the Back-to-School supplies (would you expect any less?) and spotted these cool pocket dividers and I thought I could do something with them.... I cut them down and added them to my book and I can tuck in business cards and ephemera inside. |
 |
| I prepped a few pages... |
 |
| I think I will add a photo to this page later on. |
 |
| My newly made tin is all packed up and ready to go. My HAVING A GREAT TIME WISH YOU WERE HERE rubber stamp comes in handy at a time like this. |
 |
| I really don't bring much -- my altered book and tin plus double stick tape, glue sticks, washi tape on a ring and postcard backs. I am pretty sure my PDX pals will share their art supplies with me if I am good. |
 |
| And my address book, of course! You CAN put addresses on your cell phone but I'm analog. |
 |
| So, here you go -- all packed up and ready to go. But clothes? Not so much... This is the fun part of packing. So, Karen and JJ and Miss Polly and Michelle -- get ready because I am coming! See you all very soon. And, I'll see the rest of you in the mail or back here at the blog when I get back. Don't forget to check my IG photos @PamelaArtsinSF in the meantime.
