a little over a year ago i received an invitation from
the very talented jenny doh asking if i'd like to participate in her upcoming book,
well, it took me about 30 seconds to send her my response!
and now after a lot of hard work from her design team, publishers, and
all the other contributing artists, this dream has become a reality!
i am absolutely giddy-as-a-schoolgirl, and so very honored to have
my artwork appear with these 15 fabulously brilliant lettering artists!
(one of whom is my very dear friend martha lever!)
inside, there's a reminder to always follow your heart,
and my little thumbuds even make an appearance.....
along with one of my favorite quotes by benjamin franklin.
but the best part of all is i'm in the mood to celebrate, and
i have an extra book that i'd like to share with you!
so let's give our monday a shot of inspiration
with a creative lettering giveaway!!
