After introducing my card series it became obvious that I needed to keep some kind of record for each design so that I can try to duplicate or at least approximate it if I need. Up until now if I wanted to trace something circular I just went around the house and used whatever object […]
What fool wonders still if Santa exists? How else would this incredible book find its way to my empty hands? I have been drooling over it for some time now and I am so very happy to count it among my library treasures. It was every bit as inspirational as I was hoping for it […]
