Happy #arkday I took a writing class that was about the work of Amy Krouse Rosenthal. I came into it never writing and I ended it with the biggest appreciation for who Amy was and what magic she brought into this world. So, for Amy, I wrote a poem using all and only the letters in my name.

Happy #kidlitartpostcard day! I'm Denise, an illustrator who loves creating sweet illustrations for baby board books! This is from my latest baby board book, Chef's Kiss, written by Jeffrey Burton published by Little Simon. ❤️ niseemade.com ❤️ Rep'd by Alex Gehringer at The Bright Agency

A child with a long braid sits in a blue chair at a pink table filled with cake decorating supplies. She is shaking blue colored sprinkles in her hand to put on a cake that sits on a turquoise cake stand. Cute sprinkles cover the table in hearts, dots and lines. There are squeezed icing tubes on the table, as well as bowls filled with edible pearls. The child is smiling and enjoying the process of decorating sweet treats.

The Craft, 10 Things I Hate About You, Clueless, Dazed and Confused, Empire Records, Suburbia and Party Girl were my 90's teen favs!
