My little tip is......I found this roll of drawing paper
in the children's department of Ikea
a while back. It was only five bucks and
I thought it would be great to have around
as a "drop cloth" of sorts while I'm using
my inks or matte gel medium.
Just to tear off a piece and use it to protect my desk top.....

Isn't Lisa just a sweetie? She has sent you such wonderful goodies to use yourself and for your artwork - or to hoard ;-). Enjoy the treasures, dear Dawn!

I'd like to add another tip to yours - most newspapers give away the end rolls of a run for free. I have stopped by our local paper and picked up several rolls at a time. Lots of paper left on them and I use them just as you suggested! Great minds think alike!!
Such a beautiful gift, Dawn...and what a wonderful tip! Hope you're having beautiful day!
Julie
I'm so glad that Lisa sent ya a little piece of Paper Cowgirl! Next year, I fully expect to see you there! :-)
Love ya!
Anne
Hello Sweet Dawn,
I just left you an award at my blog to pass on some love! Don't feel obligated to post about it if you find awards annoying or anything though, okay?
Just wanted you to know I love your blog and you sincerely inspire me. Love ya, girl!
Love,
Laura
Oh my gosh what wonderful treasures and such a gorgeous box too and a lovely friend as well :)
Jenny
Lisa has sent you a treasure box that is for sure. What lovely things and that sweet little baby dress. That book is right up your alley.
Debbie
No way!!! We were at IKEA last month and Steve found that roll of paper! I told him I didn't need it and got on the elevator. He stayed on the elevator and rode back up (or was it down) to get the roll of paper LOL And I love it! Who would have thought the quality would be as good as it is?!?! And for FIVE bucks!!!! IKEA is a very dangerous place!
BTW - I am LOVING your gifts!!!! Such sweet and thoughtful friends you have....of course you deserve nothing less ;)
Hugs!
"Her" and Romeo
Dawn,
What wonderful treasures, and so perfectly you
Have a super week

PS another tip: you can also find rolls of paper at garage sales for table covers, or even to experiment with to crinkle up and tea stain for backgrounds.)
Dawn, but....if you don't have the stuff in your stash, what could you create with?! This is all beautifully once-loved and now loved again! So much nicer than being cast away unappreciated.
Blessings!
Diane
lots of lovely treasures to cherish and create with..you are one well loved lucky lady!
