:) Hi everyone. I've just finished some hand painted cards. They are worked using gouache, and the main part of the piccie is cut out, then mounted on top of the other design with double sided sticky pads....the photos don't show this, but they give a 3D effect. So, the cake, cat and boat are all raised from the card!! H x

Thank you Clare, Neo and Gary.....the cat range is called "Cat-i-tude"!

I haven't named the boat range yet, but the cake range is "Let them eat cake"!

I'm probably going to work on the boat range for step-by-step illustration and project design on the mag: they seem keen on the idea, but that's not for a couple of weeks yet...I'll post up the published stuff IF they go for it! H x
