Two weeks of everything apart from drawing...

Hello my lovely readers :-)

Hope you are all safe and well. It's been snowing all day today and I had some pretty hair raising moments on the drive home today! EEEK!

The past 2 weeks have been rather difficult as my Mum has had an op and I've been living out of a bag ever since. Fortunately she is getting much stronger and better everyday so she's getting a little bit of her independence back which is just lovely to watch. Even though I've been far busier than normal, I've been spending some quality time with Mum which has been super!

So, I've still had some great news Illustration wise (the main one I think I'll be able to share end of next month: YESSSSS!) including my work being featured on Beehive Illustration's catalogue for 2013 and being FEATURED in a magazine (post about that more next time!). Altogether I'm feeling very positive despite my attentions being elsewhere!

I've managed to re-work some old ideas to make them fit for Valentines Day (you can never be too early, right?). Hope you like what I've done!

Have a lovely weekend all :-) xxx

Work sold out!

Hello guys and gals!

How is it going? In my opinion, today was pretty much the hardest day of the year due to January Blues and it being the first proper day back at work after all that celebrating! Ewwww: diets, exercise and work starts but all bring their rewards eh?!

I've just had some wonderful news and had to share! Alboe, the shop I sell in, has actually sold out of my work!!! Well, not all of it but some of the products I had on sale! Apparently the signs I made went down really well and the lovely shop owner Sam has asked me to bring in more! WOOP WOOP WOOP!

Alboe store front! My print can be seen right at the bottom in the middle :-D

YEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS xxxxxx

post Christmas Blues...

Hello all!

Hope you all had a very merry Christmas time :-) I am so sorry for my silence during the past month, it was an incredibly busy time for me as I'm sure was the same for you. The craft fair really started things off well though by putting me in a good mood and I had lots of parties and celebrations on the run up to the big day itself! This was all very well and good but it also meant I was constantly distracted from getting on with some drawing... not good at all! Oh well... Here's hoping 2013 allows me a little more time for my Nanny S-A drawings as the tail end of 2012 hasn't exactly been as I'd hoped illustration wise.

On Christmas Eve THB noticed that my outfit that day WAS EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE REVERSE OF MY CARDS!!! WOOP WOOP!!! What do you think? :-)

Anyways, THB and I are on the downwards slope from Christmas but also on a slightly upwards climb to NYE! Perhaps this little chap is getting balloons ready for the final day of the year?! :-)

Post Craft Fair FRENZY!

HELLO GORGEOUS READERS!

I sincerely hope you're well and feeling in the Christmas spirit already, I put up my Xmas decorations with THB last night whilst listening to cheesey CRIMBO music - HURRAH!

So as an update for you all, the Christmas fair was a success despite it being quiet on the day. I was thrilled with the feedback I was getting and met some lovely people which truly has boosted my confidence. I feel like I can actually do this and do this well! YEESSSSSSSS!

As a direct result of the fair, I've set up my ETSY STORE now which is just so ruddy exciting! I still need to add more items, keep an eye out for future posts!

I'm hoping to sell lots of Christmas cards during the next couple of weeks, I have limited stock but I'd like to sell out if possible!

Pick and Mix from the above stating what designs you'd like and quantities then I'll get them to you asap! You can contact me via my Facebook page:  https://www.facebook.com/NannySApage

1 = £1.50, 5 = £6.50, 10 = £12, 20 = £20 

Thanks!
