The Royal Crest

I marched straight into the neighborhood stationery shop to inaugurate my career in fine printmaking. Atop the smooth cedar display, I discovered a gilded tin of rose-gold stamping ink and a petite wooden stamp shaped like a royal crest. Lifting that wooden block required monumental poise—pure physical labor!—but I pressed it down onto a creamy linen tag with absolute conviction. Squish! A radiant, glittering crest bloomed across the card... though it tilted scandalously to the left. A dusting of gold glitter clung to my robe, perfectly chaotic. True artistic genius is simply an ordeal... sighhh.
