A little bit krafty....

Hi everyone....I hope you all had a fun-filled Halloween and Guy Fawkes' Night?! I spent the whole time feeling VERY under the weather, so missed out on all the excitement this year...the dreaded obligatory change of seasons bugs...boooo...hisssss; have they got you yet?!!! :( 

Anyways, must carry on, so here are a few snippets from a latest set - I've tried to simplify things a little bit; using plenty of flat colour, but compensating with lots of pattern and combining with an element of kraft...what do you think?

Who's for cake?

- Another birthday post; time to blow out those candles!!

I hope you all managed to enjoy some lovely pancakes last night; I managed 5 in the end...though they were only very ickle! ;) Mmmmmmmmmm...'til next year!

Lots of pretties from London town...

A last lickle post from my weekend...I had to share with you all my pretty finds:

- I was in heaven when we visited Liberty's - so many gorgeous things to buy; I wanted them all! Matt treated me to these pretty little bowls from their Target range - they were far too lovely to leave!  I think they'll look fab in our revamped kitchen! :D

 - We also spotted this great cushion from Michelle Mason - it particularly caught my eye as it had my surname on it!! Check it out on sale here

- still on the London theme, this colourful greeting card really caught my eye!

- the building itself was rather impressive too....love the tudor style!

And last, but not least.....

I received quite a few gift vouchers from all my lovely friends and family this year (hooray - shopping!!) and the first things I treated myself to were these adoreable little necklaces from Accessorize:

Lots of sugary summeriness...

Hope you all had a lovely weekend - it was so nice and warm; I made the most of it and spent the majority of my time outside. :) I had a gorgeous day with my friend on Saturday - we spent the whole afternoon and evening out in her garden....enjoying the heat, homemade smoothies and butterfly cakes (made by by own fair hand) 

I hope there'll be more summery weekends to come; Matt and I picked up this little gem earlier in the week from British Home Stores - he was working at the weekend unfortunately, so no opportunities to use it yet, but I can't wait 'til we do! :)

- I LOVE the pretty rose pattern...

 - excuse the blurriness of the last image (oops!)...hopefully you can still appreciate how gorgeous this little hamper is though! Bring on the picnics!! :)

Now, after much relaxation, here's hoping it'll be a very productive week....

A curious phenomenon......

I had to share this with you as it's so bizarre.....we had a covering of snow again last night, and I woke up this morning and looked out of the window to check how much had fallen when I noticed something VERY strange....our car had a strange grid-like formation on top of it made up of dots!! There is nothing on the roof of the car; no sunroof, nothing, so what could have caused such a thing?!

Take a look and see what you think......

...so perfectly spaced.....WEIRD!!!

Countdown to Spring Fair 2010....

As Spring Fair draws ever closer, it's full throttle for the rest of the week. I'm currently back on to Christmas, but this time focusing on the true meaning....

Here's a small taster of a new religious set I've been working on; I've quite enjoyed it - I think it's because it focuses heavily on pattern; my favourite thing! :)

Calendars galore!

After the success of the craft fair a couple of weekends ago, I've been busily working on an order I received. I have 12 new calendars to create, and here's a little taster......

 - I think one or two people may be receiving these in their Christmas stocking this year! :)

Decisions, decisions!

I seem to be going through quite an indecisive spell at the moment....the latest quandry being the background colour for my latest designs......hmmmmmm...what do you think?

Medallions galore!

Hi - the brief for this month has not only been for cats and dogs, but medallions (!) and food...so here are my latest offerings, hope you like! :)

Summer's here!

The current weather has inspired me to turn my attentions to all things summery.....here's a little selection of my most current work.
