The Drawing Board.

If you follow my tweets you will know that lately I have been spending lots of time designing new cards. I have made a start to 24 new designs, these include a really fresh summery range which is going to feature lots of tasty summertime treats and a special age range for 16th, 18th, 21st, 30th, 40th Birthday etc. Taking a break from my usual sized cards (10.5 x 14.8cm) these will be square 14.5 x 14.5cm, but still made from luxurious eco-friendly card and envelopes and wrapped in biodegradable packaging.

I thought I would treat you all to a sneak peek of some of these new designs. The photos are taken at odd angles so you can't quite make them out. I am still adding colour to these, but here are some close-ups of my black ink drawings.

Nelson Street Graffiti

The other week, I wandered into Bristol to see Europe's largest street art display, the brain child of Banksy collaborator Tom 'Inkie' Watson.

The project 'See No Evil' is a permanent fixture in order to brighten up what is a very down in the dumps area of Bristol, just a stones throw from Broadmead and Cabot Circus.

There was so much to see, lots of hidden gems, so I will give you a link the full press article, and just show you the photos from the day.
