Happy Birthday to us!!!! :)
Today is our blog’s first anniversary! So to celebrate such a joyful occasion, we decided to do something special for our readers and supporters.
The activity of choice was “draw another member’s portrait”. Some names were drawn from a hat, some chose to illustrate each other, some people were buried with deadlines and couldn’t make it, but all in all we all feel the outcome has been fun, exciting and rewarding. We hope you feel the same way! :)
Enough of the talk, let’s show the ARTZ! :D
