Cosmo Cards is on the blog... It must be that time of the month.

So, thanks for looking, I am in the very early stages of trying to establish Cosmo Cards and make it a viable enterprise, and online promotion is gonna be a big part of that, this is the start... I plan to update at least once a week, keeping the world up to date with what I'm up to and making, and if I see any other cool stuff I might stick some links up too.

Just to give you the 411 on what I do I thought I'd mention a few projects and things that I have done and what I'm currently working on, will get some pics up asap too. Whist studying Fine Art at NTU I mostly worked with folding paper, this ranged from repeat process folding of a single sheet to create geometric patterns, to building machines from card. I also dabbled in elastic band weaving, coin tossing, model making, and a few other bits and bobs. I have made cards for my friends and family for as long as I can remember, why buy something when you can make it yourself? I work as an Art Technician in a north London secondary school, but am hoping to go full-time into creative pursuits at the end of the school year.

As well as designing and making new cards at the moment, I recently made the decision to start learning leatherwork. So far I've done a few belts and am gonna start work on a case for my iPod touch over the weekend. Very excited.
