In my never ending curiosity to see what I can put my artwork onto, I came across inkbox on Instagram. Having several of my designs that would lend themselves to it, I decided to give it a go! I decided to do my wolf skull tattoo, and thought it would work without editing. It turns […]
As it was sooooo hard to keep up with my weekly updates, I decided to opt for an easier to handle monthly update. I had some words picked out for 2019 to focus on: Satisfied – This relates to my work life. I want to have a new job that I will be satisfied with […]
The 52 Week Sewing Challenge for this week was Sew Something Red. I already sewed up some underwear with some red in the fabric, but I wanted to do this, as well. I have seen some Assassin’s Creed inspired hoodies on Pinterest with the red and black colors in them, and thought they looked cool. […]
