DeleteI am truly impressed with your gorgeous collages and rolodex cards. Sending them in lovely packaging is the best way to get the postal carrier's attention, too. Yours are truly lovely.
ReplyDeleteI would give anything for my gelli prints to turn out 1/3rd as good as yours. You have a magic way with your printing plate, that's for sure.
Hope your rain doesn't turn into a flood. I've noticed there's lots of flooding in your area, so please stay safe.
Thank you for your good wishes, Elizabeth. No flooding here in SF so I am thankful. I enjoy mono printing and every time I do it I think, why don't I do it more often? I am aiming to print once a month.......thanks for all your kind words.
