Wishing you all a wonderful week!

Fresh Ink :: Winter Berries

I hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday!

Here's one of my new prints from my show at the Paper Hat - check back soon to see pics of some of my other new prints!

Fresh Ink :: Snowshoes

Here's another one of my new prints that I will be revealing at my art show at the Paper Hat on Saturday, November 17th! It will be available for purchase in my Etsy shop shortly there after! 

Fresh Ink :: Lost Mitten

Here's a little peek at what I was up to yesterday. I printed quite a few of this little lost mitten in preparation for my art show! :)

I hope everyone is staying safe and dry on the east coast!

Fresh Ink :: Antlers

Last night I printed quite a few of the next print to be apart of my White Ink Limited Collection! I am really happy with the finished print as well as the color of the handmade paper. The exact hue of the paper is so tricky to capture, so, in a word...bordeaux. 

Hope you have a lovely weekend! 

I'm looking forward to printing and carving a couple new designs, as well as having a dear friend of mine from college and her husband stay with us while they're in the Twin Cities for a wedding. :) 

+ + + This is the same friend that I created this special print for her little babe's nursery.

Antler

I've been busily creating some new designs - here's one of my latest! I'm pretty excited about this one. I picked up a bordeaux colored paper that I will use to print these antlers on using white ink. Come back soon to see how it turns out!

Through the Woods

I'm busy working on a new print today. This one will be a 2 block, 3 color print when it's all done! It's going to be a bit of a time suck, but worth it in the end. Here's a a little glimpse of a part of the sketch I did for one of the blocks.

Check back soon for more progress!

Skinny Skis

I've been working on what will be my next print and thought I'd share a pic of the quick sketch I did...
Hope you're having a good week! 

Fresh Ink :: Snow+Flake+Tag

Snowflake tags! 

Fresh Ink :: Snow+Flake

Happy Halloween! 
For a lot of people, including myself...it's still too early to see or hear about the winter season. 
However, visions of snow on Halloween aren't that crazy... 
Many of you Minnesotans probably remember the infamous Halloween blizzard of 1991 - when the Twin Cities received 28.4 inches of snow, setting a single storm record for the metropolitan area. I remember the year of the blizzard clearly :: I was Pippi Longstocking - the wire in my braids and freckles painted on my face were the only indicator of my costume since I was otherwise wrapped in my warmest winter coat, boots, mittens, etc. Do you have a memory of the Halloween blizzard? Or maybe another crazy weather related Halloween memory?

Swirling Snowflakes

Despite feeling oh so tired and sicky sick today, I managed to finish carving my next print! 
Now I know it's still a bit early for some wintery subject matter...but I'm needing to create a few winter prints before the art fair I'm in a little more than a month from now. I'm thinking of printing the snowflakes and then creating little votives with them. I've never tried that before, so hopefully it will turn out!
