My dream has come true. I thought I’d been blessed when my hubby got me Adobe Illustrator CS3…but this is even better! Today, I proud to announce I now have Adobe Creative Suite Master Collection! Now…this is sweet! I’ll be up all night playing ;-)

I was chatting, with my hubby today. He was on Skype talking to me and I used my computer to type my responses since I don’t have a mic yet. It was very weird. Funny thing was, my friend, Sheri, was on my US phone line talking to me too. She’s very cool. Anyway, I was telling my husband that I was very excited about one of my newest illustration submissions to my portfolio with Shutterstock. About six months ago I submitted, what I thought, was a killer illustration. It was two hand-prints in blue holding a hollow red heart. Would this not be an awesome logo for a charity or kid-friendly organization? Well, this was when I had just Photoshop and no Illustrator. (click on the hand-prints above and you’ll see the illustration.)

Well, today while my Internet was down I pulled up my Illustrator (thank you friend in China) and redrew my original illustration that was rejected 6 months earlier. How dare they!!!! Actually, when I pulled it up - they were right - rough edges. Well, everything happens for a reason. Today, I designed the hands and heart in my new Adobe Illustrator program and I have to tell you…I did a BANG-UP job! I am so excited! I even did them in 3d! So cool.

Ugh! I tried to upload it here but…I haven’t quite figured that out yet. Sorry. I’ll post the link as soon as its accepted and you can see it for yourself. It really is very cool!!! If you want a copy just shoot me an e-mail at from_diana@yahoo.com and I’ll send it to you ;-).

Hugs, D
