Let's peel back these layers!

juliannlaw Here is a closeup of the endpapers in my debut picture book, THE WORKD’S LONGEST SOCK. I work digitally in Adobe Photoshop but the program doesn’t do it all for me! I knit all the pixels by hand! Haha! I do have things I do to help me work quickly and efficiently, though, like using layers. Here you get to see me take off those layers one by one till we are back at nothing but a background. The World's Longest Sock is now available on  Amazon ,  Barnes and Noble ,  Target , or wherever you  buy books !

Seattle Summer Vacation


Last weekend we went to Seattle to spend some time with my family. In this slideshow, you'll see my mom and dad, two of my sisters (Shannon and Missy) and their boys. You'll also see Edmonds Beach, a Mariners vs. Red Sox game, Trophy Cupcakes, a Pirate Party treasure hunt, a couple of Mike and Lu and then even some of me. . . Oh, and something that Seattlites don't want you to know about, FANTASTIC WEATHER. It happens, and when it does, there is nowhere else in the world you'd rather be. . .

Love it! I wish I had made a trip to Seattle this summer. Your family looks great. I bet Jenn was sad to miss this. That youngest boy of Shannon's is edible. My kids had so much fun playing with them at your parents. Too bad we don't all live closer.

Love the scooter ride...I don't dare touch one of those...inevitably it will end with a crash and some blood...Looks like fun though!

Those Trophy cupcakes are yummy aren't they?

Response: Kim, holy cow yes. In the Unofficial Cupcake Taste Test I've been conducting all over the nation in the last couple years, these have been by far my favorites!

Sunny in Seattle? Can those words really go together in a sentence? Glad you had a great time with the fam. Love all the pics of those cute kids!

Man, what a BLAST we all had! And those pics you took are AWESOME! And I love seeing you in some of those pics finally! I also took some fun ones that I'll be sending out shortly : )
You know what is so annoying about people like you? You've got it all! The looks, the brains, you're a fantastic artist and a great photographer, and pretty much you're the nicest person I know. And you have the cutest daughter in the world (don't tell anyone I said that, they'd be jealous.)
Looks like Seattle was a blast! Glad you're back. I expect some killer BBQ's on the way.
