Featured in Etsy Treasury!

I just discovered that I was just featured in another Treasury called "Gotta Get A Goat". My Billy Goats Gruss postcards are included, see.. there I am! Go check it out.

Although we are talking about goats here, this treasury reminds me of 'The Little Prince'. More specifically, it reminds me of the part where the Prince wants a particular sheep to be drawn. "Draw me a sheep!" Have you guys read it? I only just read it over the weekend and it was so inspiring! It is definitely a must read.

Better late than never!

It's taken me ages to finally post this but hoorah!! I call this style of this drawing - light and fluffy because it's so incredibly cute in a quirky way! This drawing I did months ago inspired by the lovely tale of Billy Goats Gruff has finally been posted in my store! Apologies to all who has been waiting for this to come out!! You get 5 postcards in this posting - go to my store for more details!

Sorry that it's been a while for me to post something about my artwork! I've been thinking about getting more into doing stationery work and am in the process of doing up some cute designs for notepads, to-do-lists, note cards, letter paper, envelopes, invites and announcements. THE BIGGEST PROBLEM I've found however is how long it takes to print and ship each design/drawing I do!!!! (about 3-4 weeks - I get them professionally printed - I find my printer at home just does not cut it with the quality I want.) So, I've found a solution (which a lot of other etsy sellers have already started doing!!) and that's to sell PDF designed templates so that all you have to do is print it out yourself on what ever surface/paper/texture you want!!! I may decide to print some of the most popular ones later down the track though!

I'll let you guys know how I'm doing!!

NEW ITEMS

Come check it out! I got the final piece to my 5 set Alice in Wonderland postcards - The mighty scary Queen of Hearts ("Off with your head!"). This now completes my Wonderland set and is available to buy on my Etsy store. (I love them so much!)

I have also added a few more lovely polymer clay jewellery trinkets and a cupcake stationery writing set! This set comes with 10 lined writing sheets with a cupcake design on the back, 10 matching cupcake envelopes, 1 magnetic bookmark and some cupcake cutouts to decorate however you please.

My favourite item? The cupcake bookmark! It's so cute and adorable and USEFUL! I am constantly losing my bookmarks (weird because they're there to help find - does anyone else lose theirs?) but now I won't have to worry because now I have this! The bottom of the bookmark holds a small flat magnet which snaps together the pages you're reading so the mark doesn't fall out! Smart!

NEW ITEMS

A few of my Alice in Wonderland Postcards have been delivered and are now available to buy at my store so come check it out!

Tea Party in Wonderland

All gathered around the table for a tea party. Everyone had their own ideas on a conversation starter:
Alice: "It would be so nice if something made sense once in a while".
Chesher Cat: "Can you stand on your head?"
Queen of Hearts: "Off with your head".
White Rabbit: "I'm late!"
Mad Hatter: "Why is a Raven like a writing desk?"

and The Chesher Cat began: "We're all mad around here"....
