cut out to be comical




Oh where, oh where has my little blog gone!? Oh where, oh where can it be!?

Well, it is still here at the same address, waiting patiently for me to shake off my heat-wrecked, lethargy-drenched inspiration doldrums. 

This evening I have managed little more than to shrug a teensy bit of apathy due to the fact that I found these smile worthy creations from Wilhelm Staehle at Silhouette Masterpiece Theatre.

From the delightful collection of paper cut silhouettes layered on various backgrounds of artwork and patterns coupled with witty wordings, down to Wilhelm's Bio, this site wrenches my happy face into place when it has been teetering a little too close to melting into the carpet.

I implore you to explore, stay cool and be happy.

e.

p.s. I find the word 'silhouette' is odd yet pretty. For all you wordy types, the etymology is worth a peek... right [here].

[one] via booooooom [two] via design is mine


By now you should be aware that it is a new year and updated the relevant diary and calendar bits about your home and office. Maybe, if you're one of them on-the-ball types, you have even managed to stop typing '2011' thus sparing your delete key the headache of relentless finger tapping.


I've never really made new year's resolutions before, but this year there were a few thoughts of a 'resolute' quality loitering in my gray-matter. 


Some are enjoyably silly (but imperatively practical) while others reflect lessons-rather-not-learned...


Amidst the menial and melancholy, my little potato buddy upstairs neatly sums up some of my most positive thoughts of resolve. Partnered with it's neighbour, the bright, loopy artwork by Kirra Jamison, I am reminded that without inspiration life gets pretty boring.


2012 - inspiring good stuff


(yes, I felt 2012 needed a tag-line)
