Happy Wednesday! Here's this week's survey, which you can copy and paste and share as a comment.
It’s been two months or so since I did a big organization/clean-out. It was shortly after formally announcing I was going to step back and work a little less on the blog, and it encouraged me to really start to tackle my archives!
ColourPop Cloud 9 Palette is a new, smoky/gray color story in a 12-pan format.
