Off on my Holidays!

Hello Everyone!

Hope things are good with you :-)

This is going to be a very quick blog as I'm off on my holiday!! Hope you have a lovely week or so without me around! Some lovely things to tell you before I depart:

I'm now selling my Cards and Wedding Stationery in a gorgeous shop called The Pottery Gift House in Frimley, Surrey. I am most excited!! The owner, Sarah, gave me a hug as she was so pleased to have me on board - what a welcome!!

I've joined forces with a lovely and very talented Florist in Sandhurst called Rhoda who runs the very popular Heaven Scent Flowers (part of the Secret Garden!). VERY MUCH looking forward to getting my teeth into lots of Wedding collaborations with her once I'm back, yipppeeeeee!

more to follow upon my return! Chat soon! xxxx

Something a bit Graphic...

...no no no, I don't mean rude! I mean the latest set of design work I've been working on!! It's called Graphico (mainly because I can imagine it being said in a great booming voice!) and it's quite different from the other designs I produce; take a peek and see what you think!

This range is completely customisable so you can change wording and choose your colour palette to perfectly match your wedding colours. I'd love to know your thoughts :-)  S-A xxx

It's BUSINESS TIME!

Howdy! Hope you're smiling ;-)

Its the beginning of a brand new week which means NEW opportunities and more chances of GOOD THINGS happening (I don't know how these things will happen but I know if I keep trying and working hard enough I'll make it in the end!!).

I'm so happy that I've now gone down to part time hours; it means I can spend dedicated time every week on my artwork but still enjoy the social aspect of working with others, being involved in something bigger than just myself whilst having my mortgage covered; peace of mind AND my own creativity, best of both worlds really! Woo!

I was very excited last week as I sent quite a few bits to print, more on that when they're back from the printers but for now here is my latest range of Wedding Stationery for you to enjoy!

Hey all!

Hope things are sun-shiney out there in Blogland!! :-) I've been REALLY BUSY working away, knuckling down and generally thinking about stuff NIGHT AND DAY with a clear goal in mind of making this business a success. I feel very positive (despite some set backs...) so here goes!

Wishes coming true...

Hello lovely Readers out there in Blogland!

How are things? Hopefully things are happy and well for you!

I really feel that my hard work is paying off and that some of my dreams and wishes are coming true. Firstly, I've just had a major order FINALLY go through (which I've been wanting to tell you about for ages) with Cards Galore, 20 of my designs will be exclusively sold in over 50 stores in London and then the surrounding areas if successful enough! Here's hoping! Hooray!

Secondly I've been offered permanent part time work at McLaren which means I can still pay my mortgage but also have dedicated time each week (that I'm not going to feel guilty about taking) to spend on building up my illustration and design business (new website still being designed!).

And finally, THB and I have been very grown up and after much planning... HAVE BOUGHT A HOUSE TOGETHER! It's still in the early stages but I am understandably, very excited about it! WOO!

New design for you, hope all your wishes come truuuueeee!!

grrrrrrr

Howdy doody!

I had just written a lovely blurb about things that have been going on but the internet went crazy and I've lost it all :-( BOOOOOO! So here is just a nice pic instead to make you smile:

Until next time! Au Revoir! s-a xxx
