When Mischief Came to Town . . .

Working on this cover has been a pleasure! My heart was fully in it as I've read the book to my girls before starting the work  and we loved it to bits! It really was a good read and I like how the cover turned out.
When Mischief Came to Town could be preordered on amazon.com...

New Paper Goods from Roger la Borde (a). . .

It is such a pleasure to hold the final product in my hands and to know that it is done right and the quality is good and that people will enjoy it... I love the way Roger la Borde put together the "Enchanting Forest" Letter set. It makes me want to write a couple of letters. I will blog the rest of the new Roger la Borde work shortly... but you could see it all here.

Tiger Dream . . .

I've got a new print to show you today! I hope it brightens your day.

Birds of Summer . . .
