HANDMADE STATIONERY AND BESPOKE PRINT-ON-DEMAND SHOP
Kimenink has dozens of ‘Ink Re-Cap posts, some numbered, some dated. The goal of the round-ups are to share our latest projects, how life and Kim+Ink is coming on, and/or our plans for the future. Plus, of course, our freebies, which are typically digital art that we design ourselves.
If you don’t read any of the posts during the week, our Saturday Re-Caps will get you all caught up. We usually send out email reminders to everyone on our list when we publish a re-cap, just so you don’t miss out on a little kimenink every week.
Because, and we can’t stress this enough, we depend on our readers to keep us going. When we ask for prayers, you come through. We’ve never hit a situation that God hasn’t helped us through, and we know it’s not because we’re the warriors. From that angle, our Re-Caps are a way to connect and get our message out there. Even if that message is a cry for help, we appreciate your interest so, so much. It’s not actually the stress of work that does us in. It’s more the challenges of Kim’s autism and anxiety. With some OCD and mood disorder to complicate things. And as needy beggars, we know we can reach out to you and you’ll reach back. Thank you so much.

‘Ink Re-Cap 172.Random Sketches and ScribblesTime to catch up with time… where did it go? How long does it take to fill a traveler’s journal? Depends how many pages it has. I used to, eons ago, write a diary page a day. If I’d done that since the last time we did a re-cap, we’d…
