A preview of things to come...

Lately, I've gotten into card-making...

(i apologize for the pictures. in lieu of a camera, I settled on using photobooth on my Mac. I wish that the images weren't reversed. So dumb.)

A series of Thank You cards:



owl.






newspaper tree.












envelope for newspaper-tree card.





a random "I Miss You" card:




(i love those letter stamps. hate that it's backwards. guhr.)





s'more Thank You cards:


this one was inspired by Ernest Hemingway's The Old Man & The Sea. since the details are hard to see: the blue paper is super-imposed over newsprint, then I used an exacto-knife to cut out the image of the a sailboat in the ocean, with a flock of seagulls soaring above. it's one of my favorites.






this one makes me feel happy and sunny inside.







hey, if you like them, let me know! I am planning to sell some cards on etsy.com sometime in the near future. But if you would like me to make a more personalized set, I would love to do it for you (shameless plug, heh). No, but honestly, card-makin' keeps me sane. So really, it's an investment going towards my emotional well-being.

toodles.
