Her second book, A Cat called Camouflage, was published in 1970 and appeared with engraved illustrations.
She believed that the printing processes did not do justice to the fine detail so, for a time, she decided not to do any more engraving.
During this period, she made some striking paintings of the Norwich fair, which impressed the owners so much that they commissioned her to paint some displays for their rides.

However, by 1973, she was engraving again and decided to buy her own press and find other ways of marketing her engravings.
The Arab press, which she acquired in 1977, enabled her to produce greetings cards, letterheads, and bookplates, both on her own initiative for general sale, as well as commissions.
