Today I Saw...

I'm taking part in Jill's marvellous Today I Saw end of drawing project big postcard swap. Cor, that's a mouthful isn't it?

I made my postcard using one of my favourite methods of drawing, it's a sort of mono print. You make your drawing on thinish paper, then cover the back of it in oil pastels then re-draw onto another piece of paper or card. I used to do it a lot when I was at art college. Anyway here it is. *Blush* You can see more contributions here.

Oh that's very sweet. I like the way you have printed it - clever idea.

The thing you want to change is called a Favicon, and there are various sites telling you how to do it...I used this one http://www.computer-realm.net/how-to-change-blogger-favicon/

Looks so much nicer than a boring old B doesn't it?!
