Simple.

Incubating ideas and my dogs shedding are going to kill me one day.
I have a few projects for which I'm considering using styles that I'm not thoroughly comfortable with- great! Other than that, I need to take a look at that resolution list again. I almost broke the not-eating-2-minute-noodle one.

I'm back!

Everyday I've been beating myself with a saucepan to update my blog and I was juggling between 'nah' and 'Let me just update the entire website', well, till now. New year, new updates. I have about 15 odd resolutions, more like a reminder of how to make myself a better person. Practice is one of them. I started using watercolors a bit and I'm far from being even remotely fluent. I can't seem to find a stationary shop that sells nibs and my favorite one has finally disintegrated with rust. The water in my area is really hard.
I am in the midst of doing my website up, getting a folio running and doing more customized work. I seem to enjoy that a lot.
And ofcourse, Happy New Year! (I still haven't taken down the Christmas deco because it pains me to do so. Today is the day:(

Wrap up your troubles.

I find it really hard to catch good wrapping paper in times of need. It's almost default that my wrapping paper is never enough or not cute enough. And no, I don't think newspaper cuts it, no matter how well-wrapped or even if your ribbon compensates by being made of pure gold.
So I end up printing my own, if it's for a smaller gift.

Freebie!!! Print this on your home printer (this is if your gift is small -but expensive- like a ring) or (like me) can print it at your local printers at a bigger size(A3 seems alright). It costs as much as it would for a decent wrapping paper except it's cuter. And if you're recycling your gift, you may use newspaper. Or used tissues.

Works well with the freebie tags.

Today is going to be one of those days. those long days. those days when you sigh when something goes wrong because you've almost expected it. or gotten used to it. Ok it's not so bad. jeez. I make it sound like I've cut myself in the eye.
Today won't be so bad because I'm going to go to the print shop. And my tuna sandwitch was yum. nom nom nom.
