Recently I took up a challenge to make a 1×1 mini linocut block every Monday. What I hope to get from this challenge is to make more things just for fun and to put less focus on perfection. Having a designated day just for mini stamps will help me stay consistent without putting too much […]
Note cards, All the Note Cards!
It’s Sunday, a designated day off, do you think I listen to that “rule”? HA! It seems I have yet to let myself have a full day off, though I have gotten better at letting myself rest when I need it (it’s a start!). Work tends to be like play for me, I enjoy what […]

Reconnecting & Random Updates
Lately I have been searching for new forms of inspiration and creative outlets to keep my mind clear and focused on my path through all of its changes in elevation, switchbacks because the beautiful views are worth it. These activities are as important as much as the tasks and creations related to mmDesign716. Just as […]

Progress and Tall Ships
A big part of my craft is experimenting and running with things regardless of mistakes or weird moments of working out the kinks. I bought this pack of safe wash relief ink from Hyatt’s a while back and only used it once. For anyone following a long on Instagram, you may recall I was doing […]
