This May calendar is coming to you a day late (sorry)… but it doesn’t matter if you’re a dollar short. Because you can download it for free. Or whatever. If you’re down with the whole coloring book craze, this one’s for you. And if you…

Today: Get Messy Thursdays | Magic, Week 1
Get Messy Thursdays, on a Friday. A blame my tardiness on the Jeopardy! Tournament of Champions and other senior citizen-ish things that have had me preoccupied this week. The new season of the Get Messy Art Journaling program just started, and the theme this time around…
