\u201cWhen I was younger, I could remember anything, whether it had happened or not; but my faculties are decaying now and soon I shall be so I cannot remember any but the things that never happened. It is sad to go to pieces like this but we all have to do it.\u201d
\n\u2014 Mark Twain<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

My card-making activity stretches back before intact memories. How early? Press me too hard and you might hear me claim that I started before learning to write my name. <\/p>\n

Currently, my crafted greetings tend to fall into one of three categories: <\/p>\n

\u2022 Series Alpha<\/strong> \u2014<\/em> combines scrap letters, often with traditional hand lettering arts.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Series Omega<\/strong> \u2014<\/em> features my conventional collage technique, applied directly to the folded card.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Series Pi<\/strong> \u2014<\/em> attaches an ultra-miniature dimensional collage to the card, like a little square-cut slice of \u201cPizza Pi.\u201d
