There’s the fine artist, and then there’s the graphic designer.  Their styles and techniques are different, but the one thing they have in common is that they need the right supplies to get them there.  Here are a few usefulideas within resonable price ranges you might want to consider.

I feel terrible for being away from my blog for a little over a day…  I was really trying to write in it everyday, but I failed.  I’ve just been busy baking, going to school, doing some homework, and running errands really.  Oh, and I’ve been having lots of fun with my friends, Jennifer and Sebastian.  I was friends with them in high school, but now we’re pretty close.  I saw them yesterday and today again.  =]

And right now, I’m trying to get into planning mode because we’re trying to throw a New Year’s Eve party with a theme and everything–what do you think of guests dressing as their favorite Action Stars?

Life as I know it
