The Dylan movie would have been 100X better if they'd written it as a quest film where they have to reassemble the Fellowship of the Traveling Wilburys in order to defeat Spotify

Today's Dephemerember prompt was Steampunk Butterflies in a frame. I had fun with it, and broke out my jumbo art journal for this one.

I made my own Christmas cards this year by uploading a photo of my own artwork to WalMart and had them printed. They cost 50 cents a piece, but I like having a personalized card!

Today's #dephemerember prompt was least favorite ephemera. I hate handling wet teabags, so I used dyed teabag paper to make a colorful side pocket for a junk journal. #junkjournal
