Hmmm cake

I've been using a lot of collage in my work recently. These are two ideas from my sketch book and what better subject matter to use than cake!

HaPpY nEw YeAr

I know it's a little late but just wanted to wish every one a Happy New Year. Hope 2012 is going to be a good one!

Christmas Cards

I love designing Christmas cards. Below are some I've previously had published by James Ellis. The faint snowflakes on the reindeer and snowman one are glittered, these were printed as mini cards.

It's being to look a lot like Christmas

I can't believe it's the 1st of December today, this year seems to have flown by. Here's a Father Christmas as we start the count down to the big day...yay!

Character development

Here is a birthday girl character idea I've been playing around with in my sketch book. Just messing with a different painting technique to the normal one I use. Below a girl using the same stencil technique listening to some music.

On a previous post I mentioned a bottle design being used on a notebook. This design and three others that I have done can be personlised and purchased on the fabulous 'not on the high street' website. Just click on the link below.

Christmas is coming!

Wow I've totally neglected this blog, sorry. Anyway I love this time of year when Christmas is sneaking up. I'm currently working on some ideas for Christmas cards, in my work recently I've been using a lot of collage. So I've been spending a bit of time cutting out reindeer and snowflakes etc.
