November

Hello, friends!

Thank you for all the congratulations on my win in the Hero Arts Holiday Challenge. I am looking forward to receiving my prize package in December.

November can be a very depressive month in St. Petersburg, as the sunset is as early as 4 pm, so we have short windows of day light in winter. This is something I need to adjust to.

I have learned how to make an Artist's Trading Card (ATC). I will reveal my Secret Santa card and an ATC, I made for the Hero Arts Flicker Group exchange, in 2 weeks.

My friend Zhenya Goncharova from Moscow bakes cakes for a living and when you visit Moscow you can order her cakes and pastries on-line. She liked my cards and came up with an idea to sell them together with her baked goods. So I made lost of birthday greeting cards and cards for all occasions and we'll see how it goes... It was another project to use up left over pieces from other projects. You can see that I love the Big Post Card stamp from Hero Arts. It makes a cute and quick background for my cards.

Thank you for visiting!
Maria
