The other day my mum and I were in TK Maxx and I noticed that Joanna Basford’s ‘Lost Ocean’ postcards were vastly reduced. I decided to buy them for travelling or my hospital bag.

However, when I unpacked them I found that they are probably the most intricate designs I have ever seen – very beautiful, but very difficult. So I decided to set up a little project and log it on this blog. I’m going to aim to colour one or more of these postcards in per week and then send them off to people who have had a significant impact on my life or who I haven’t seen in a while.

I’ll keep posting about this but I’ve already finished the first postcard. It was about the most intricate thing I have ever done.
