Thank you!! 😭 😊 That's so nice to hear! It's incredibly validating when a self initiated project connects with people and I had a lot of fun with this one. Thank you again!

This is so great Kayla, thanks for sharing your process! I love seeing how you start with a mind map - I’ve never tried it. Usually I just make a random list of ideas as they pop up, but I never thought of connecting them in the way that you’ve shown here.

Thank you, I'm glad you liked it!! I forget when/where I learned about mind maps, but they are SO helpful in narrowing ideas and making unlikely connections (which is where I think the really interesting stuff comes from). I have a draft post going about using mind maps, I need to get back to it. :)

This is so wonderful!

And speaking of pokemon, did you knew some people paint over their pokemon (MTG) trading cards to personalize them? I had the opportunity to see a couple great ones

Wow! I've seen personalized MTG cards, but not Pokemon! Do you remember which pokemon they were? That's so cool!
