‎”We need to make books cool again. If you go home with somebody and they don’t have books, don’t fuck them.” John Waters (Yes! Great quote!)

Snaked from the way too darling Miz Jane Ann Wynn. Check out her fabulicious blog ;)

‘Up Your Nose‘ is my new blog that will be devoted to the art of scent. The main Crushed Velvet & Roses blog will remain here with continued postings of art and who knows what else but anything relating to scent will be at Up Your Nose.

You will find posts and articles relating to the subject of aromatherapy, anointing oils, ritual oils,  herbs, and alternative perfumery.  Mainly aromatherapy which is my first of the scented passions.  Of course I’ll have to slip in once-in-a-while when products from Crushed Velvet & Roses (that’s me!) are released too ;)

So c’mon ovuh and check it out ;)

Leslie from Alpha Stamps has just released another gorgeous newsletter to faint over! If you haven’t seen the 7Gypsies ‘Conservatory‘ collection, prepare yourself! It’s beautiful!!

Also – much as I’d like to not tell you about this and hoard them all for myself (heheh!) – the Masonite ATC Cards are back in stock after a long absence! These are the best to beat up, sand, paint, sand again, emboss, embellish, drill, hang and more! Last year I made hanging ornaments out of them for a holiday show and they were a huge hit. Here is a picture of one of the ornies from that show:
