Sometimes Life Just Stinks

"Sometimes life just stinks" is what it reads on the inside of my new card, featuring this flump of a skunk on the front.  Good for loss of a job, feel better soon, break-up with boyfriend...... you get the gist!

Might I suggest you add an additional inscription, something like, "Drinks on me," or, "I'll bring chocolate."

Illustration Friday: Sight

Okay, my apologies.  I couldn't find the time to finish this week's IF, depicting "sight." I didn't want to skip the opportunity completely, though, so I posted as far as I've gotten.

I'm experimenting with some new fur techniques(!) which is both exciting and tedious.  It's going to take some more time until I'm comfortable with it, but so far it looks like this new technique is a one-way-street for me.  Fur-bal Essence on my horizon and there is no turning back.

I have every intention of finishing this piece and finishing my quest of fur adventures, so I really hope you come back to see the final product!  

Cupcake

Here's another addition to my new line of cards, for birthdays, celebrations, and cupcake lovers.

Bubble Kisses

I'm working on expanding my card designs.  I'm undecided as to which I'm using and which I'm tossing, but finally refreshing my old stock feels great!  Here's today's trial card.

Illustration Friday: Kernel

Don't you just hate when the corn gets stuck in your teeth?

Happy Graduation!

New graduation card.
Congratulations to the class of 2012!

Illustration Friday: Hitched

Illustration Friday: Jump

Playing with Illustration Friday's work of the week, "Jump."

Happy weekend!

FINALLY!

My book is finished!  As of yesterday, Wednesday, at exactly 5:24pm.  

Hey, when you've witnessed as many holidays, birthdays, and episodes of Friends as I have during the making of this book, you remember the time the era is over.  The point of completion feels like my own personal apocalypse.  I'll remember "5:24pm" forever.

I sent for it to be in tangible book form in time for the gallery exhibit at my graduation. Now the hard part.  Awaiting it's arrival.  And praying nothing got cut off.

Platypus Play

Simply playing with the idea of a platypus.  

Fun fact:  Male platypus have spurs on their hind ankles that shoot out venom strong enough to incapacitate a human.  Doesn't that just make you wanna cuddle this little fudge pudge?
