Farwell Tammy...





So my boss left for a new job in a new town on Friday. I wanted so bad to make something elaborate for her because even through our differences we had really grown in the respect for one another and just had a great relationship! (this is my day job not my real work of Calligraphy...lol) In a place that has as much politics as there is having the relationship such as this is so appreciated. But unfortunately time as it always does got away from me. I did though sit down and really put my heart into a card for her.

Because I did like it so much I made a few alternate versions that I will put in my Etsy shop!!






Even though I will miss her I am so happy for her and her family!! New adventures!

Father's Day

My Boys and I made a gift for Daddy... of course you can't BUY something for a daddy who has basically everything he would want. Plus this was way more fun!

Artist Trading Cards

For years now I have hosted an ATC exchange (artist trading cards) each month.
I have so much fun with this and there are so many terrific artists!  I thought I should share the first 4 pictures are the ones I made and the last 2 pictures are from other artists.





This is such a great group. If anyone is interested in joining in Please let me know at tlcbyhand@gmail.com
OK so I didn't quite get a card a day completed... but I have started!  Let's just say I am off to a late start !!

Suzanne

I worked with such a great Bride recently. She was ON THE BALL had her lists formatted perfect sent materials way early ... just all around terrific!  (I know this sounds so easy but believe me it is so much appreciated by all calligraphers). I only did place cards for her but sure wish I could have done more.

I have always been so blessed with wonderful brides. I laugh whe I watch the show Bridezillas because I could not even imagine dealing with someone like that. I guess Indiana hasn't grown them like that!! Thank you Suzanne for being so great!
