Weekly thingy and the Five of Cups/The Evil Queen

Ok, I’m back with a finished card and I know it was a wait but I do really like this one a lot.

Someone who’s busy being upset over what they no longer have and doesn’t see past it to what they still possess seemed PERFECT for Snow White’s stepmother.

It was nice having room to spread out a bit on this one, I forget if I’ve told you guys what size the originals are? So I’m working in a 9.5″x5.5″ frame – twice as big as a standard tarot card, so there’s room to get detail in without going crazy, but small enough to fit easily on a scanner and not become so busy when it’s shrunk that you lose information. It’s a pretty comfortable working size for me, but when I’m fitting a lot of bodies or whatnot in the frame it can get awfully small – one of the reasons the twelve dancing princesses haven’t popped up yet.

Places to buy stuff!

• TEEPUBLIC: mostly t-shirts, a few other products.  Watch for sales, when shirts drop from $20 to $14!
• REDBUBBLE: Just, I don’t know, a ton of different stuff.  T-shirts are more expensive than Teepublic, but there are a lot more options.
• AMAZON: Home of the Geeky Gals Coloring Book!  Daydreams and Whimsies!  AND NOW, The Neurotic Owl Compendium!
• ETSY: paper dolls, a knitting bag pattern, and a bunch of vintage dolls of various sorts from my collection

Did I miss something?  I think that’s everything.

What’s making me happy this week:

I’m getting pretty close to the end of my very first colorwork knitting project (that was fast!) so I’ll probably show y’all that pretty soon.
