Pancake Treasury

I made a pancake inspired treasury on etsy as pancake season is coming up fast. YUUUMMMM.

who knew there was so many pretty items inspired by pancakes!

Business card design

I have been designing some business cards for my mum. She is a childminder and although she has no problem finding work as she is brilliant, I thought I would design her a business card anyway :)  (excuse the watermark)

I have used my little bear as I wanted to include a cute character to reflect the fact that the business is about children. So even though its the parents that will see the card, it is still child friendly. It is also fun which is always good!

valentines

I have been busy busy and so I have not been doing much blogging! Which is rubbish as I miss my blog. 

Well I have done a few simple valentines card designs.... they are purely computer designed so no collage and cutting and sticking like normal with these ones... I have handmade variations in mind though. Cant keep away from making a mess. 

These don't have to be just valentines cards though of course. They are for any day that you feel the need to tell someone how you feel. :)

be-lated christmas wishes

merry late christmas!

blog feature

Well it was a lovely suprise to come back from a weekend at my parents to find that a piece of my work had been featured on this lovely blog over the weekend... take a look here! 

Thank you so much Iona!

Christmas Cards

I have started squeezing in some time to make some christmas cards recently, so I thought I would share them. One design is for sale already in my etsy shop, so go take a look HERE! :)

halloween cakes :)

The past few days have been RUBBISH! yesterday morning started with a flat tyre on my car which meant i was late for work which meant mooorre overtime so lessss time making cards and things. From then on it has been a hopeless few days.... BUT I am going home for the weekend tomorrow and spending tomorrow evening with my good friends who I do not see enough. So I have decorated some halloween cakes for them :)

It was my first attempt at piping icing. not bad i think. :)

anyway thought I would share them with you.... well a photo of them.

im still here. promise.

Well full time work seems to have been keeping me busy over the past month, hence no posts and sadly not much illustrating. 

I have had a second sale on etsy though so this has made me happy and got me making again and today I AM going to be making some christmas cards. 

I am going to try and fit more blogging and etsy-ing and making into my schedule again. I think it just took a while to get used to my new full days. Am enjoying my job and am already looking on etsy for christmas presents to spend all my money on. hehe. 

i haaaaaave a job! fiiiiinally!

Woodland List

As I have some time on my hands (inbetween job hunting of course), I thought I would make another etsy treasury list :) I love making them because I love looking at beautiful things that people have made. 

It is a woodland inspired list as I love walking or riding my horse through the woods. It is one of my favourite places actually.
