Often craftspeople and artists discover a new interest or mode of expression--- precisely what happened to me after I had heatherjeany from Etsy create handmade Gocco invitations for my wedding. Before I knew it, I was having a Gocco shipped from Japan (they're currently out of production) and was smeared with ink and covered with paper cuts. It was a great excuse to explore old books for vintage illustrations and play with words.
My Gocco cards and prints have been so well received that I am currently transitioning from jewelry to paper goods--- all items can be found at my new Etsy shop under the name Paper Menagerie.
Ooooh, I love your Gocco stuff! Best of luck with the new shop.
