Hi Susan - this post reminded me that I promised to send you a link to the Diary Project. Here it is - http://www.flickr.com/photos/fragiletender/sets/72157594498619372/ - Enjoy!
that looks very cool indeed.
we lost our internet connection twice in quick succession so i couldn't get the artstream address to post the package.
now i have it, but Mr P hasn't been getting out of his classes on time (he teaches) to get to the P.O. before it closes each day (he starts before it opens).
He thinks Friday lunchtime he may get a break if there are no surprises. Phew.
Incase my connection goes again I'll wish you a good weekend x
I saw these on finelittleday, their work is stunning!
