A Card from a Friend

My dear friend Liz, who lives in Boise, is one of the most creative people I know. We worked together in the late 1990s, I as a writer/editor and she as a graphic design artist. It was her graphic design style that inspired me when I took up bookbinding and cardmaking as hobbies.

She sent me this hand-drawn card I wanted to share with you because it's so clean and simple and pretty.



Thanks, Liz!

  7. Oh my Oh my what talent! You can even tell the handle of the cup is probably gold, in real life.

    Thanks for sharing Liz. Probably no one else could have passed muster around here, we're so spoiled by getting to see your artistry every day, Susan. :-)
