My Name Is Rachel And I Am A Doodler

 I've been doodling while waiting. Sometimes I go overboard with the curlies, but I'm just learning. I was influenced/motivated/inspired by Lindsay Letters. She writes beautifully.
 Below is the handmade leather journal I'm doodling in. It is beautiful. I bought it at an Artitudes event two or three years ago and have been 'saving it' for....
I don't know what. So I decided to use it. If someone from Artitudes ::lynnie:: knows where to find these, I will post it.
 Rumple was jealous that I posted a pic of Scootch, so here he is with his face right in the camera.

LOVE the doodles. This is WAY more than doodling. This is fancy pants writing. Very, very cool.
I still have the lettering booklet you did WAY back when you were scrapbooking.
You are my lettering hero.
