No I did not make my logo, I know I have the ability to draw and do things digitally as well, but I unfortunately can't take credit for this. My logo I chose of me as the 5 of hearts was part of a wonderful art project by my friend Dapper Dan McLaren who's other wonderful work can be seen here:

He had a very cool idea to make his friends into a deck of cards. I chose the 5 of hearts mainly because 5 is my fave number and I'm kinda a girl about romance sometimes (even though my comic makes people think otherwise) so I chose hearts. Seeing as I worked with Dan at my art store he saw the colourful 80's style clothes I wear and referred to me as "Strawberry Shortcake" or sometimes people called me "Rainbow Brite" which I don't mind, seeing as I loved those shows when I was a kid, so he made my outfit very Strawberry Shortcake inspired which I love! I want the hat, heck, I want the whole outfit! I didn't know when I picked the number that 5's in the decks all had to be chefs which was funny at the time 'cuz all I did then was get take-out, and toast and microwave everything, I never made time to cook or bake. I never knew even then that I'd develop a fondness for this stuff to the point where I was told to start a blog about it. Maybe I have Dan to thank for this, I dunno, but either way, his stuff is awesome and you definitely need to check out his art and other card deck projects like the ones he did of cool musicians! Just go to his link already! :) More on Dan here:
