Yay! My new Anthropologie gift guide came in the post yesterday. It has a lovely die cut design and pattern on the front cover. I want everything in there please!
Weekly Admirations
I recently stumbled across some really lovely illustrations by Teri who is a designer, illustrator, stylist and crafter at http://thelovelydrawer.com she also has an etsy shop which can be found here
These are a few of my favourite illustrations among many others in the Illustration part of her portfolio. She really is very skilful in many areas of design and her online portfolio and blog shows this.
I will definately be following her blog for more wonderful design updates!

Watercolours
I love using mix media in my work so today has been a watercolour day! I will scan this in and use the painterly floral elements in photoshop combining lovely textures and line work to create the final piece.

Rain Rain Go Away
Hello my soggy friends,
Living in wales really is great, I love the beautiful green countryside, the historic castles, Caerphilly Castle, Castle Coch and Cardiff Castle to name a few. Brecon Beacons has some wonderful walks, mountains, lakes and waterfalls. Wales also has some of the most beautiful beaches in the UK.
I hear a 'but' coming....
BUT all these things would be so much nicer if it didn't rain quite so often! I love going for walks with my little pug friend and she who won't go out in the rain (she is a bit of a pampered madam). Soggy feet are a common occurrence in Wales. Now that I have lived here for a good while I have had the good sense to purchase multiple umbrellas, a good quality rain mac and waterproof boots!
Here's a little illustration for all of you that have been caught out in the rain far too many times.

Weekly Admirations
Hiya Readers,
This week I would like to feature Dawn Bishop. She is a very talented designer specialising in Children's Wear, Print and Stationary. Her character work is adorable and it's great to see the process from initial design idea to final product in the shop. Here are a few designs by Dawn Bishop which I particularly admire....
