As one does sometimes LOL! Your colouring and blending is just simply beautiful and you inspire me a lot. I don't usually do much gothic at all....I am a pure and simple foundational most of the time but will do other styles according to the text and what the customer wants. Most of the work I do has a personalisation element to it and I won't post it unless I ask permission to post after the event as it were. I make a lot of personalised cards....never have to look for work as I'm sure you don't either.

Your cards are gorgous and I love your house mouse stamp. I have a big shot for a few years now and I wouldnt swap it for an electric one as I reckon you have more chance of breaking it as you wouldnt be able to feel if you have too much pressure in it but manually you can feel the tension when you turn the handle.Kezzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08282325796163580792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359905425914127607.post-38756681117675171942011-03-27T10:39:36.471+11:002011-03-27T10:39:36.471+11:00Before photo - untidy desk?

Seriously I've bookmarked your blog as it is so interesting and your cards are beautiful....I'm intrigued by the word 'calligraphy' in your title.....did you write the title text? Also do you ever write the sentiment and the inside greeting on your cards? Just wondering.....glad to meet you and wish you God's richest blessings!Joyce across the Pondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15265043471522130388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359905425914127607.post-73568574146696211392011-03-26T14:39:55.906+11:002011-03-26T14:39:55.906+11:00busy busy girl...I sure wish you would enter your ...busy busy girl...I sure wish you would enter your House Mouse card in the House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge...Spring challenge!Sue from Oregonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774234118472002924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359905425914127607.post-21033091113912812432011-03-26T03:47:01.808+11:002011-03-26T03:47:01.808+11:00OK now I believe you that you can make a mess if y...OK now I believe you that you can make a mess if you tried really hard.
