CATS CONTINUE TO BE WITHOUT SLACKS
Thus far the cats in slacks are not exactly a rousing success.
I am having some problems getting my gocco to print. I made the print master just fine but when I tried to use the stamper, it just refused to cooperate. I am doing my best to follow the instructions...

....but I gotta tell you, they do not make it easy on a person.
The blocking peeled off the screen and made some of the edges fuzzy. Plus it used a buttload of ink. A it got all gloopy and kept clogging the screen. I am not at all happy with the results. I only got two prints that were vaguely identifiable as feline, and those are just plain lousy.

I mean, really. Look at those. The one on the right looks like he's winking at me. I don't know why that eye just won't print. He looks like Popeye the sailor cat.
So I am officially declaring this phase of the experiment a non-success. Except for this:

My desk has not been that organized in months.
Today I am going to try a different approach to printing, and see how that goes. Cross any body parts you're not using.
By the way, on Friday we are going to have a Very Fun Announcement (Hurrah!) here at Polka Dot Mittens, and so you should come back and see what it is.

The last thing you want is some half-dressed cat winking at you. I mean: salacious.

What a disappointment. I hope you soon learn Japanese, or Korean, or whatever it is you need to learn in order to read the instructions! ;)

Oy! They never make instructions easy to use. I know nothing about using a Gocco, or I'd help you out. The only thing I can think of is to do a Google search for the instructions in English. But then I'm Captain Obvious. ;)
Good luck and I'll be crossing everything!
(And thanks for commenting. Wheeee!)
