It’s Technique Tuesday! Today is the day that we split the paper somewhat literally. I have taken the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper and picked my least favorite pattern out of the bunch.

It’s Sabbath Sunday! This is the day to focus on resting and recharging. I’ve often heard that rest is for the weak. Rest is for when you are dead. Rest in peace is often on a headstone. Just walk through a cemetery. But today I want to talk about the fact that rest in peaceContinue reading “Rest…in peace. It’s not just for the dead.”

The negative image of theContinue reading “Using a die for a border.”
