Matchbox Labels No 8

 I haven't posted any of my vintage matchbox labels for a while, so here's a cute little Dutch set featuring alcoholic drinks for your delectation - enjoy!

Illustration Friday - Sneaky

Temptation proved too much for Tim and he couldn't resist a sneaky peek!
I've not had time to submit anything to I.F for a few weeks but here's a quick one for this week's topic.
I can't believe it's only a month now until Christmas, I suppose I'd better get on with making my cards and buying presents etc!

Open All Hours

I have just opened another little shop for my gocco prints on folksy, the U.K version of etsy.
This birdie and some of my other prints are looking for new homes.  You can check it out here.
There are lots of lovely handmade shops to discover there, just in time for Christmas shopping!

Wedding Music

I recently illustrated an article on choosing wedding music in the latest issue of Destination Weddings and Honeymoons Magazine.

The issue is just published, although I haven't seen a copy so I thought I'd post my 2 favourites.  Ipod dj or live band?  We had a band play at our wedding and they definitely added something special to the day for us so I would choose live music every time.

Kids Drawings

I recently went to visit my little nieces, they both love to draw and did some lovely pictures for me while I was there.
This is Daisy's princess, it's her 4th birthday tomorrow so Happy Birthday Daisy!
















Here's Pricilla, a very special bird indeed!  Drawn by 6 year old Louisa.  I love the colours and all the details, she has even got eyelashes!
They both look at my blog so I'm sure they'll be excited to be published artists!
