So I'm designing some more cards for the cat club

And maybe to sell at my own stall too. Here's a Christmas card I'm in the middle of fiddling around with. I like it when I can make bright red cards, and I feel that I have a reason to do so, although it's a little bit early to be feeling festive...

You are my aorta

Another greetings card idea that came from a doodle a few years back- it makes me happy turning these into actual 'things' after so many years (maybe some are more tasteful than others *ahem*) but yes- onwards and upwards! My greetings card collection is growing a little bit, and I'm hoping soon to send it off, and HOPE that stores (and the general public) are happy enough with it to give me a shot at a very competitive market.

Two for Joy Greetings Card

So this is one of three magpie cards that I'm designing. I want to complete it with "three for a girl",  and "four for a boy" as 'expecting'/ 'new baby' cards, although I guess this one could be for anything. I had myself a little debate with my boyfriend who, APPARENTLY, hadn't heard of the superstition before he met me, and so, said that 'they wouldn't get it up here' because 'it's an English thing' tufffffft.

Well, he's WRONG because just about every Scottish person that I've asked has told me, not only that they'd heard of it, but that it's very common up here too. So I win another one.

 Although this is just about done, I am still considering making the eyes a tad lighter to show up against those black feathers.

Scottea time!

Another little greetings card done! I'm going to need help selecting which ones to get  printed for the trade/ craft fair.

Two Peas in a Pod greetings card



I'm getting closer! Here's a new greetings card that I've designed, I've got a few more to go, and then hopefully I should have my collection in a more acceptable capacity to send on to publishers/ retail to take my images. 

 I received an ink stamp today, so I've made a start on some 500 bags that I've got to get stamped up for the trade fair next month.
