Christmas Cards & Shoegazer

The lovely blog shoegazer has featured my Christmas cards yay! Thanks ever so much!

My Christmas cards will be available on etsy until Dec 15th, only a few more weeks til the festive day! I officially started my shopping by buying wrapping paper yesterday, so at least I made a start.




I can't believe it's december already, where has this year gone?!

Patterns

I made a pattern! Hopefully I'm going to screen print it at some point, so I'll keep it black and white for now.




I actually joined a print studio recently, I'm so excited, I can't wait to make prints! They'll all probably end up on my bedroom wall, but it'll be fun!

Possum in the tea

Because I was feeling silly.

I heard the song 'Possibility' by Lykke Li for the first time the other day while watching the new twilight film and as I wasn't paying proper attention I thought the lyrics said 'there's a possum in the tea' hehe, it's actually 'possibility' but I'm daft and easily amused and a quick scribble soon appeared...
It's actually a lovely song, the whole twilight soundtrack is rather wonderful infact, I'm very much enjoying new Death Cab and Grizzly Bear (and if you take our the killers it would be perfect!)

Christmas Cards!

I was feeling very festive so I made Christmas cards this year!



They're available on my etsy shop until December 18th. Cards are available individually or as an assorted pack of six. They're professionally printed on 300 gsm, with a matte finish and come with seasonal red envelopes. Inside greeting reads 'Have a lovely Christmas & Happy New Year'.

Enjoy!

Illustrativo & blogs

My hummingbird has been getting some love from the kind people at illustrativo, this was posted 3 days ago, but as usual, I'm not with it (click!) yay.

And some lovely people were nice enough to reblog it. These are a few of my fav blogs I've come across tigerroll.tumblr.com, airwavesuperhero.tumblr.com, larobotique.tumblr.com, sleepyghosts.tumblr.com, and misterpeace.com.

Much love!

AphroChic feature

I realise this is fairly old news as it was posted in July, but I've only just discovered it! A very lovely feature on AphroChic's blog [ click]. I came across it when I was googling myself - (like you do!) I was just checking to make sure my website comes up in google.... hehe (which it does, yay!)

I'm very flattered and thank you ever so much to the lovely AphroChic. I love her blog, it's full of beautiful and inspiring things, I could look at it all day

itslikeart.net

So I finally got around to redoing my website! It's fairly simple but its easy to use. There's still a couple things to edit but for now my website is no longer on a hiatus! (I know its taken me like 6 months to do anything with it, but I promise I will try and update it more often)

Ballad Of

So I've been doing a bit of work with the lovely girlies at Ballad Of Magazine, and they're having a party to celebrate their new issue, for which - I've designed the poster! Fuun!


The party is on the 24th Nov at Bardens Boudoir in London, there's a group on facebook you can join if you'd like to come. There'll be lovely artwork to look at and live music to listen to and interesting people to see. I'm excited!

Screen printing fun! Part 2

I took a better picture of my little hummingbird screen print :)

I have lots of test pieces of the seperate colours which are really interesting by themselves, I'll get a picture of just the outline, Im really pleased with how they came out.

Screen printing fun!

I love screen printing! I printed my little hummingbird illustration today, as an edition of 5 (how cool is that - an EDITION - of FIVE!)

I twittered this picture earlier but I'll try and get a better pic up soon, its quite dark, I took it on my phone. I think I'm going to join the print studio as I have many plans for printing in the future! Plus, I will have more time to experiment next time.

London tomorrow! Excitement!
