I'm excited to say that this week I'll be uploading some of the new (and some of the updated) designs from the year so far. I'm working on some new dragons, and playing with text more than ever. The two newest monsters on the scene are
sing song (below) and
lovely dragon (above), both blank cards with text versions soon to be released. In fact,
Lovely here has become part of my new logo and card back designs... seeing as how she looks pretty much the way I feel at the finish of every drawing.

Sing Song is also a new card experiment: the dragon image cuts off at the left-hand fold and curls around the back of the card.
I really need to get some photos of these, considering the new stuff is starting to pile up. Ah! This week I'm under the crunch of an art deadline at work... so if my sister-manager gets any photos, I'll be sure to upload those by week's end.Speaking of busyness, the two of us just finished our first
in-house crafty bake sale. Celeste (my sister) has had phenomenal local success selling her amazing cardamom bread and
handmade granola, not to mention online acclaim with the launch of her new
Etsy shop
70'sHome. The event was fun, with the possibility of growth in the future.
I want to thank our friends for their support! I expected to do more crafty things like this this summer, and wonder if my work schedule will permit.
Hmmm... somehow I must make it work between the two responsibilities- it was so lovely to open our home, gather the bulk of our goods together in one place, and smell all of that incredible cooking day after day!
an example of one of my new card back designs... ooh, color!
