Was tagged by Ashley, to show what's in my bag. Well, won't believe
it, but when I'm on the run without kids I usually have a very small bag
with exactly two things in it: my keys and my money and that's it.
Very minimalistic :)
And following Ashley I'm going to make my own tag and want to ask
a question: "Do you have any long-time wishes or heart-projects?"
Mine is making a children's book.
I'd love to know this from (quite many people :) Heather, fliss, j,
Hanna, Kristi, Natascha, Dessa, Liivia and Line. You're tagged!!
Another wonderful parcel was in my letterbox today, this time from
Dessa. The "heartbroken wolf man and his lucky tree". I so love what
she writes about them: "They're made for the purpose of inventing
stories, so please use them carefully." I will, they are great!
thanks !
(lovely bag, by the way)

I love seeing what people carry in their bags. And I love 'what's in my bag' posts. It's like snooping only more polite and less creepy.

How exiting to be tagged!
That was a nice and well-ordered bag!

I was very excited to see your heart project- I have been thinking that you should write children's books. You're a natural!
Your illustrations are wonderful- stay in my mind. And your ideas are creative- the bubbles and the fish under the ice...
"the first day nothing special happened"...I want to know more.
This is a very attainable goal for you, Karin.
I'll surprise you with my project. :)

Oh whew!! My heart stopped when I thought "I'm going to have to empty my bag and show what's in it? what a mess it is!"
Thankfully you are tagging me for something else. I will think about this carefully, as to what my answer will be. :) thank you.

I don't know what it is about me, but I love photos of other people's bag contents, all laid out and photographed! Sort of like peeking at their bookcases to see what they read :) Awesome.

You are definitely the right person to illustrate a children't book. I think that you could make this happen very soon if you put your mind (and heart) into it.
Thanks for the tag.
I am thinking about the best answer. The tag makes me a little nervous. I would almost rather show you what's in my purse : )

I agree with Kristi, your illustrations are just beautiful and perfect for a children's book. We both have a similar heart wish.. :)))
Thanks for tagging me...it was fun and lovely to open up our garden to you all in the blog world.

I admire her work as well. Maybe they will help you with the story for your children's book!
