Feeling BETTER!

Hey hey!

Thanks for your lovely comments on my last post guys; I feel so much better today :-) I need to learn to stop being so hard on myself when I feel low, it only makes things worse. ANYWAY I have a weekend of fun to look forward to; tonight I am seeing an old school friend and tomorrow I'm helping my sister put up a wall art sticker I bought for her very first home... hence the creation of this piccy which I'm making into a card for her:


Hope you have lots of fun plans too for the weekend! Nan xxx

Feeling sorry for myself...

Hello Everyone,

Apologies for this being my first post of the week. *sigh* I'm not sure why, but I'm finding it really hard to pull myself out of a long stint of grumpiness and feeling low. I've not even wanted to draw this week which goes to show something isn't right. Just wish I knew what was wrong so I could get on with sorting it out! Maybe I need to take a leaf out of this little chap's book:

Lucky me :-)

Hey all!

So after a week of EVERYTHING breaking (my car, camera AND phone all went crazy) and generally feeling a bit sorry for myself, I decided to be a bit kinder to myself and just give myself a break! Sometimes we just have a bad week and I guess this was my week. But, as soon as I relaxed, things started to get better! My car was fixed FOR FREE, I got a full refund on my camera and my phone is now fixed and even better than before! It made me realise the problems I have are minute and I am actually very lucky indeed :-)


Have a spiffing weekend :-) toodles! Nanny xxxxx

I'm pooped!

Good Day all! Or perhaps that should be Good Evening if you're reading this later on tonight :-)

I'm not sure why but this week has really tired me out! I went to the gym earlier this week and went a bit mental on the cross trainer... maybe that's what did it?! ha ha!

I've been quite busy sorting some wedding invites out for a new friend; I love doing this sort of thing but it does take up quite a bit of time! Anywho, what I'm trying to say is I've not really been up to drawing for the pst couple of days so I don't have anything to post about today :-( But, for those of you who haven't already visited, why not check out my other blog, THRIFTY NANA for tips and general chat on making the pennies stretch further?? :-)



I'll do my best to post something BRAND SPANKING NEW tomorrow, ttfn! Nanny xxx

MMMMMMMonday

Hey all!

I had such a lovely time this weekend in Bournemouth celebrating THB and I's 6 month anniversary, I feel so warm and fuzzy inside! The downside to my weekend was that yesterday was also the 6 year anniversary of my beautiful Granny's passing :-( I was a mess on Friday but managed to stay positive and keep smiling all day yesterday. It's so weird that she's gone, I'm not sure how we've coped....

Anyway, I know Granny would adore the fact that I am creating artwork based on being in love! She was such an old romantic :-) Here's today's love-y based design:



Happy Monday :-D xxx

Finally I can submit!

Happy Friday all :-)

I am in such a jolly mood today! Despite the cold weather I managed to get up early this morning to go to the gym and it really has set me up for the day! YIPPPPPEEEE!!! I'll no doubt be quite tired later on tonight but it'll be worth it. I'm going to try and get fit this year, my wobbly bits seem to be taking over and only allowing me to wear half my wardrobe which is not good :-( So far I've lost 4lbs which isn't bad!

Anywho, back to why you're here! ILLUSTRATIONS! I have literally just submitted these designs to Tigerprint, oooh I hope they like them!! You can see all 5 designs (I've tweaked 2 of the ones I posted about if you're interested) by clicking here.




Hope you all have a super weekend, I'm sooooooo excited about the trip to the seaside with THB!
