MIXED MEDIA ON OLD CHRISTMAS CARDS, DIY WASHI TAPE FROM KITCHEN PAPER, AND AN ORDEAL Today I had fun in the studio just playing, enjoying the creative flow and feeling myself recover from yesterday's ordeal (more later).

WOYWW - What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday? My workdesk for this week's WOYWW has been my computer - working on my new blog. This has turned out to be very complicated and after a couple of false starts, I think I am on my way now. It's very slow, because I don't really…
