Easter basket of goodies

Hello my blog friends, there's still plenty of time to make stuff for Easter if you'd like. Cheryl at My Sister's Cottage is generously sharing the vintage Easter postcards she found at an antique sale. Here are some of the images, which she has made available for use in your blogging, scrapbooking and other projects.

doodling with Pea Maia and Pea Mumble

Hello! That's a "good MORNING!" in Pea Maia's Doodles
to my Pink Saturday and Blue Monday visitors.

Just a little something to share a couple of fonts I found at Fonts for Peas. They're cute, they're fun and they're free to download. You can even use them to personalize your blogs but you'll need to convert the files first. Details at the website. The fonts I used in the photo of handmade bars of soaps (yumm, I love these!) are Pea Maia's Doodles and Pea Mumble and Jen's Doodles. Have fun!

On a more serious note, if you're wondering how you can contribute to the Japan disaster relief efforts, please take a look at my post Japan earthquake tsunami: How to help. For as little as US$5-10 in some cases, you can do a good deed and maybe even win something wonderful. There are links in the post to resources, places to donate and more than 20 raffles and auctions by artists and crafters for prints, photos, pottery pieces and some gorgeous quilts.

I'm linking to Beverly at How Sweet The Sound for Pink Saturday and Sally at SmilingSally for Blue Monday. Thanks for hosting these parties, ladies.

Thank you all for visiting.

Jessica Hische Daily Drop Cap project

      ?       These fabulous letters of the alphabet (and plenty more) were created for Brooklyn designer and illustrator Jessica Hische's Daily Drop Cap project, for which an illustrative initial cap was posted online nearly daily. Now, after the completion of twelve, yes TWELVE, alphabets, she has made available for free use all the drop caps on non-commercial sites. So generous!!

Here are two videos of her talking about her work

If you're interested in the tools she uses (hardware and software), read The Setup's interview with Jessica Hische. For a tour of her studio, see frormyourdesk.com's interview with  Jessica Hisch.

To use the alphabets, all you have to do is copy the html code for each drop cap and you can then use them in your blog posts so they can look all pretty and gorgeous. Go to the Daily Drop Cap site or directly to the Daily Drop Cap page where you can see everything available.

While you're at it, why not head on over to Jessica Hische's website or her blog to check her out ;)

“The work you do while you procrastinate is probably
the work you should be doing for the rest of your life.”
— Jessica Hische from an article at Letter Cult.
She was Letter Cult's 2009 Person of the Year.
