Rose and Thistle Buttonhole

Another thing that I needed to get done was this- it's a rose and thistle buttonhole illustration; I'm getting married in a week and a bit, and these are going to go on my wedding favour bags. I feel that I may have gone a little crazy with the ink, but I am rather happy with how it's turned out.

So I got some more teatowels printed

One using the thistle design that I have on a few other items, and one with a brand new pattern that I made (I started doodling it during an unsuccessful evening at Granny Would Be Proud), a 'cattern'. I'm still trying to find somewhere to license my designs as I could really do with the money, but for now, if you want to support me a little bit, my shop is here :-)

Wedding Invites

So I'm working on some wedding invitation designs in an attempt to find more work! I will be adding various styles to my collection, but this is the first. I find that simplicity is key- there are SO MANY  terrible examples of wedding stationary online that are obviously cheap cheap cheap! Why is it that someone can spend £30,000 on a wedding, and yet think it's ok to spend £10 on design?

Wee Scottish Thistle

Postcard/ greetings card that I have created for my catalogue. At the moment I'm more tempted to use it as a post card. We'll just see
This postcard is now available at here for £1.50

Thistle, Berry and Heather Pattern

So these past couple of days I've been working on some new pattern ideas- this being one of them. I hope to get at least one more done by the time I have my Cultural Enterprise meeting this week, but everything takes so much time! I am hoping to secure funding so that I can get my patterns and designs printed in bulk and start trying to distribute them.

 I am quite happy with how this one turned out, I think it'll make a nice little mug :-) and I'm hoping the little shops that I'm targeting agree! If that fails, I always have Etsy... Wish me luck!
