Christmas cards 2013

Merry Christmas everyone. These two are my newly designed Christmas cards this year, “These are all mine” and “Not that bothered” with pen and colour pencil illustrations on a navy background. They both have “but Merry Christmas.” printed inside. I’ve been making 2 designs every year for 3 years now so there is a set of 6 different illustrations now. You can see the past designs here. I may continue the same series next year or start a new series, I have a year to think!

Commissioned Controlling Girl’s shirt dress

This is a commissioned piece of the Controlling Girl’s shirt dress calico version from “minus the sun, night all day” collection. The marks and lines are drawn by hand and not actual embroidery, only the elbow patches are hand stitched. It is almost the same as the original but the resin buttons have embroidery inside instead of sequins. Also, it has a different mood because the calico I use is not always the same and I often combine different ones.

“minus the sun, night all day” character postcards

Here are the character postcards of my 2nd collection. The postcards of my 1st collection had a white background with pencil & watercolour illustrations with text describing each character. These have black backgrounds with handwritten design notes in white with digital illustrations. The back side has a girl silhouette stamp logo and address lines made of tiny crosses. Hope you like them. I’m keeping a set for myself and looking forward to growing my collection with each collection!

Selvedge Winter Fair 2013

Here are some photos of my stall at Selvedge Winter Fair which was held at Chelsea Old Town Hall 29th-30th November. There were so many exhibitors with exciting things. I wish I had more time to shop as a customer. Thank you very much to those who visited me there. Hope to see you soon at another event!
