I am taking a break from roll printing some metal in my rolling mill...I wound it a bit too tightly and now the metal is stuck!..so I will need to summon all my brute force to turn the handle and get it out..it's only half way now..humphf. I'm making the textured layer for the underneath of one of my historical outline brooches, which I texture with hand made papers which imprint the metal with a lovely softly lined and matt finish which stays really chalky when it is gold plated...http://www.flickr.com/photos/abigailpercy/93328089/

In this winter Wonderland...
Even on the coldest winters day,when you go to the Botanic Gardens... you will find a tropical paradise in the hot-houses. These leaves are so beautiful and other worldly..I had to take a picture of them. They are so cheering...I hope they cheer you too!
