Aspirin to Marie Antoinette - from Lisa Iversen @ Skybridge Studios

No return address on the card but I am pretty sure this is Lisa's beautiful calligraphy. I hope I am right! If I am not, well, it is still a fantastic handwriting, painted on a thick book cover. Another "give it away" is the line about Marie Antoinette (about as much help as aspirin would have been to…

Sewn organic boekie from Alicia Starr

A beautiful and delicate boekie from Alicia. I am not sure what kind of paper she has used, is it a kind of rice paper? It would fit the organic theme very well. Tea at the farm on a late spring evening, surrounded by chicken, or as Vizma would say, chooks :-)) I like chooks better. Alicia also…

DKULT is the Blue SHIT and MinXus has a new flag! - from Katerina Nikoltsou

Katerina's unsoakable blue DKULT card has arrived! Looking great. And the back of the card is very interesting as well. The new breath-taking Café de la Paix, New York with a french accent :-)) You can be sure I googled it. I don't think it still exists, I only found one match,…

A Book About Books - from Cheryl Penn

I don't really know how to start this blog, because no blog can say enough to do justice to this work. Cheryl's Book about Books is an absolute beauty. It won't reveal all its secrets at first glance. You will have to dig in and explore to find out more about it.…

Vispo book chapter cow excerpt (ruined, she says) - from KDJ

KDJ ruined it for me. And I'm so glad she did. Actually, she says ruined but it doesn't look a thing like ruined, IMHO. She very kindly sent me the page of her Vispo chapter I commented on, my favorite one. The one with the cows. I think her take on Magritte for the Vispo…

Let onion atoms lurk within the bowl - etegami card from Dokankodebbie

Fantastic etegami from Dosankodebbie. You cannot see it from the photo but the gel pen colors are nicely glittery. And the Japanese twist: the outline of the onions was painted with powdered matcha tea! Thank you so much Debbie, thanks to you my etegami collection is growing and looking absolutely…
