My brother-in-law called my attention to The Pinup Blog. Jaime Caudill has written a blog post I can relate to.

My amazing husband, Mark Ludwig, created this for me: (sorry for the picture quality-it was early! and I couldn't use a flash due to the finish) Mark was kind enough to write out his process: December 19 1. First, I enlarged the CurlyRed Logo to approx. 2' x 3' in Photoshop. Because the image was […]
