Happy New Year

Hello, and happy new year to all!
I love fresh new starts. It's like getting a new sketchbook and hearing the crack of the spine opening for the first time. January is one of my favourite months. It's a time to reflect on the year gone by and what you want to do in the year to come. It's a new journey and you don't know what's round the corner. I love spring cleaning my house and getting healthy after a sluggish christmas of over eating and drinking too much mulled wine. I want to join the gym but I think that's next months task ; )
It's a very exciting year to come for Dear prudence. Going from greetings cards to other paper goods is a scary prospect and at the moment I feel I have bitten off more than I can chew. However I am loving seeing my designs on other products and the possibilities are endless. I am finding so many beautiful wildlife photos. It's hard to just look at them, I have to always draw what I see. This is one of my favourites. It reminds me of home in Scotland on a misty, cold morning. Thought I would share it with you.
As you all know I am not going to be at Top Drawer this month. Dear prudence is hibernating until the Spring and then she will blossom. Although she will be in Frankfurt next month for Paperworld. Keep your eyes and ears open.
