SNAPPY CHRISTMAS!

It's been another busy year, mostly looking after the little ones and squeezing what creativity I can into into the little gaps of time I can find. The loss of nap time with our littlest meant that gap of time got even tinier but there is big change ahead, for the little one starts preschool next year!!!

As much as I will miss our time together, those 3 hours every day is going to be heavenly and I can't wait to fill it with creativity :)

Snappy Christmas everyone and see you in 2018!

Quacky Christmas!

Here are my Christmas cards for this year, starring my boy and his alter ego. I got them printed surprisingly early - first time for everything!

Wishing you a magical Christmas and a happy 2013!

This year, my little boy learnt to walk and talk and dance and sing, and is growing and changing each day! He started nursery, which meant for me enjoying a little slice of freedom and getting back to my other love -  making pictures, hooray!
This was one of the first images I made, inspired by a certain carrot loving little boy :)

Happy Christmas!

Wishing you a lovely Christmas and a Happy New Year!

in my shop!

I've added a couple of things to my Etsy shop - limited edition Giclee prints of "Autumn Bunny" and a set of Christmas cards.
More things to come soon, including felt toys and more limited edition prints :)

My new shop

My Christmas cards are now available in my brand new Etsy shop!

The colours came out a little darker than I expected...it's tricky getting the colours right, from screen to print.

Lesson of the day - must be more organised and not leave things till the last minute!

Christmas cards

I saw this Christmas card of mine for James Ellis Stevens at Paperchase in Goodge Street today yey!

Do people send Christmas cards to their teachers??

This design is also available as a pack of 5 mini curved top cards here.

Here are the other cards. Some are available addressed to people such as grandson, granddaughter, friend, special couple and the one I love.

(This one is also available as a pack of 5 mini curved top cards, although it doesn't seem to be listed on the website.)

These cards are available here and here.

Let it snow!

Oops, I forgot to crop the images so please excuse the messy edges...

Anyway, here are some personal Christmas card illustrations I've just done. I've ordered them to be printed as greeting cards. I hope they come out ok...I am a little nervous!! Typically it's all last minute stuff with no time to spare for any mistakes. hmmm.

But I like to at least make an effort each year. I enjoy sending Christmas cards as it's a great chance to get in touch with people and actually write something using a pen :)

I also have some Christmas cards for sale here.

They are the cards I worked on for James Ellis Stevens at the end of last year. I mentioned it in the early days of my blog. There are 6 different designs. I'll post about them properly the next time...(it's 3am and I need to go to bed!)

Christmas chaos

From October '08 to January '09, I worked on some Christmas cards for James Ellis Stevens. Can you spot the cards taking shape amongst the Christmas chaos in my studio?
