@acancello I’m going to try to write a little book and illustrate it for some of my friends for Christmas gifts. Do you ever make your own gifts that you give?
@janellebelovedpig
Yes, I love making home made presents, though I do sometimes buy them for certain people. Its so much fun to make gifts and if you wrote a book/illustrated it, I’m sure that they would love it!

I’ve been into making fantasy maps lately. I paint the whole page with coffee to make it look brown and old, then I dump rice on the paper to generate the land form. Then I trace the rice with pencil or ink, add details, and then paint the water blue! It’s so much fun! I made one of those yesterday but instead of adding places and town names I designed a little map thing and put a quote on it for my friends birthday.
Um….YES!!!!!
Good, I’m glad I’m not the only one who is.🤣
Yep 😂

That sounds awesome! Ooh, makes me want to try it!
It is soooo much fun!!! It takes a while, maybe a day or two, because coffee takes a while to dry, but it’s well worth it!
@savannah_grace2009 Does instant coffee work for that?
@janellebelovedpig Yeah that’s what I use XD
