No I think you have it covered for text. Visually I would square the bottom of the tags instead of rounding the corners. Time management wise I might even square of the entire tag if they have to be cut by hand. The brads are kind of neat, but again take more time then just a simple staple.  Since they are a one of a kind item though you may not want to lose that element.  Do think maybe the flower could be a bit bigger.

#53 Looks close to some pictures I've seen of him but then in others he looks closer to #59. Remember that the colors shown on a computer screen are very deceptive.  Best thing to do is do a test dye on a small piece of your fabric.  Make sure that you make enough of the mix that you can then dye more or write down the recipe you end up using. Even following a recipe can yield slightly different results.

Not bad considering that he had never puppeteered before. I have to admit though I had to look Frazer Hines up. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frazer_Hines I am a Doctor Who fan but did not remember him.  Of course I did not find Dr. Who till Tom Baker was the Doctor so that could be why.

Looks like you had a pretty cool set up.  How did the tennis shoes sell?  Sorry to hear the Zombuddies did not sell well but I would not give up on them.  They look cool... may just need to find the right market.

How cool is that? It is!   I do have one suggestion though. Could you make the background white? While parchment looks cool it is really going to eat up the ink when printing. Ok I have more then one.  Put your website url on the pages. Granted you would think that folks would already know but could be someone would print of a bunch for use in class or with a group of kids.
Re: Fur Question Posted in Fur Question on Apr 23, 2013
I have used sharpies on fur before to color small areas although I did not use the method described in the link Julie provided but simply "drew" on the part of the fur I wanted colored. I've never colored a full piece.  I think you are best to find a piece of fur that is the right color to start with. Since most all faux furs are synthetic they just do not dye easily with normal dyes.  You need acid based dyes to color synthetics and they are really toxic and hard to work with.  So I would say that the answer for most to this question would be no.
