I have officially become a 'twitteree' seems I cannot hide from it anymore! 

But YAY, Follow meeeeee! I have many interesting things to say...

J'adore Ma Bicyclette!

One of my ingenious friends Nicola semple decided recently that she wanted to set up a blog that would be a mixture of all of our friend's skills and talents. And that it would be an all round blog that specializes in everything from art and music to just life in general! 

Thus Ma Bicyclette was born!

So go and check it out, it is just getting started but we all have our own little parts to play and guess too which lucky son of a gun had the pleasure to write their blog topic on valentines day? Felt Mountain Studios non the less!  So go and check it out, it has huuuuge potential! :D

Owl love you forever

Happy Valentines day all! 

Whatever your plans today- be it a fancy dinner for two, a tub of ice cream for one, or if your working all day (like me) today is the day to let your heart free and do its thing!

So Tell your partner how foxy they are, 

Tell the ice cream guy how much you dig them,

Or tell yourself your looking pretty fly today... 

And when words don't work, you can always say it with an owl :)

Pentagon Party

I really like it when people use shapes in their work, sort of giving a retro/ 80's feel. It looks really effective yet its so simple! So of course I though Hey why not give it a go myself?

So using some of my fave pics I came up with these... 

One artist I really like is Citoyennes du Berlin (http://www.etsy.com/shop/Citoyennes) which I came across in my Etsy Shop. She really has got some ace talent

and certainly inspired me on the shape front. I really like the cute whale design, and she does more too with clouds and apples galore. Check her out, you'll love it :)

Frame me baby!

Finally have my new work available in framed form :)

Only have pics of these 2 yet but there are definitely more to come!

Take a look, they are available to buy from my etsy shop- YEY!

An all year round smiley print :)

Especially in time for valentines :)

Draw me a Dream...

New in to the lovely Etsy shop are these lovely little A5 notebooks, Ideally designed for jotting down those dreams!

So far there are 4 designs to choose from , 'Every Cloud has a silver lining,' ' All you need is love,' 'Home Tweet Home,' and 'You are such a hoot,' 

But I am sure there will be even more to choose from soon- YEY :)

Time for Tea?

After trying to go outside and appreciate the weather in all it's rainy glory (see below) I decided that try as I might, winter time = Hermit time. 

So whilst snuggled up in my bed with a peppermint tea, I came up with a design that brought the sunshine to me.... Bring on the summer!

Rain Rain...

I just heard this today- and thought hmmm how snuggly that saying fits into my life right now... (seen as the weather has been doing its best to keep me inside the past month!)


"Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain."


mmm yes me thinks it is about time I go outside and catch some rain...

Granny Splash

A new Project recently came up from the lovely colander girls of Slaithwaite (our projects seem to be endless!)
And one lovely lady in particular Pam Wilkinson decided she wanted to do a children's book called 'Granny Splash and Walter Blue Wellies' in which a lovely little grandma makes a friend for life with some groovy talking wellies- and they play together in the snow and rain, and just generally have lots of fun! 


Anyhoo she asked if I could do the designs for it, and along with that she had some drawings that she would like me to incorporate too- already done by the fabulous kids from Neilds school in Slaithwaite itself. 


So here is the finished result... (and for my first ever bash at a book- I think its bloomin marvelous!)


If you are interested in buying a book, they are available from my shop and are £5. All proceeds go to Meals on Wheels Slaithwaite and help to bring a good home-cooked meal and some fab company to some of our local elderly folk- a really, really fab cause. 

Hello Deer

I am really enjoying everything to do with the print and pattern world, and as such I thought I would do a few festive cards to help Christmas along in our house...
