Under a crescent moon, a skeletal suitor romances Catrina, icon of Mexico's Day of the Dead. Ana Maria Gonzalez crafts this adorable phone stand from pinewood, decorating it using decoupage techniques.

The cover of this small journal is a print from the original artwork of artist Alejandra Aceves in Mexico. In this marvelous artwork, she depicts "La Catrina", clutching a heart in her skeletal arms under a moonlit sky. The original "La Calavera Catrina" was a zinc etching created by the artist Jos� Guadalupe Posada in Mexico around 1910. Posada created the character, a female skeleton with an elegant hat, as a satirical portrait of Mexican natives who aspired to European style and denied their own heritage. The catrina has since become an emblem of Mexico's Day of the Dead celebration and a popular folk art subject. The appealing artwork graces a spiral-bound notebook of unlined paper. Use it to record the daily joys and special moments in your life.
