january...

wow.  can't believe it's the eleventh of january already and i'm barely posting my calender!!  a bunch of us are making mixed media calendars for the year (at least, that's the goal...the whole year!) and this is mine for january! i've definitely filled in the boxes, just took this picture right after it was done so they were all blank at the time.  this is one of the creative challenges for myself for 2013.  i added my one little word for the year too.  i have so much to believe in.
