Lets relax

Here are two cushion covers I have made, I tend to prefer using materials quite alot and am really happy how they have turned out. I like the retro flower one more think it has more too it than the other. I sewed sequins and buttons onto this one and used stiching to enhance the outline or inner circle of the flowers. With the other i added buttons rather than a zip to add for more decoration.

Greeting and Gift Cards

One of the first things I really got into was creating cards for all events, I really enjoyed it and poeple seemed to liek getting more personal cards. Here are some that I have made for different occasions.

Crazy Keyrings

While in Spain I totally forgot I found these keyrings!! I only bought three, but just thought they were really amusing and different.

Full Glass

I had a glass paint set as a gift and spent some time doing some glasses!! Some glasses turned out better than others but it makes them look so much more intersting. I made each one different.

Been away a while.... look what i found

Ok I'v been really busy lately so haven't really posted, however while I was away I got some good images, postcards from spain and some photo's I took. Below are some postcards I bought while in spain and have scanned in, I really love the one with pants and top on the line, I think it is unique compared to the others. All of them are quite different and these certain ones caught my eye.

Below are some photo's I took myself while away. the first too were actullay of me and my boyfriend at the harbour but both times my camera took twice and I LOVED the outcome thought they were sooooo cool!

The next two are of paintings we found on the wall while going through one of the towns, I have seen them before but these had loads of detail and looked really remarkable.

The last photo I thought was good beacuse I like the scenery and the way the bench kind of works with it.

Taster of what I like...

I love Alex Pardee's work!! I just think it's really unusual and some of his illustrations are really bizarre. I wouldn't say he inspires my work cause its not my kind of style but I still think what he does is great.

You can see more of his work and technique at http://www.eyesuckink.com/

Another illustrator is Sophie Robert, I just really like how they are quite simple butthe technique is quite nice...

Autumn Whitehurst has some amazing work. I really love her technique the pieces look so real.

In The Office...

I have been working full time at Delta Labelling since my summer started. It is a labelling company and design labels and other types of sale points for clothes and the shops. I have worked here before and gave Ivan the designer a hand. He asked me to draw some stuff for him to put on labels. He told me what he wanted and below are a few of the drawings I did.

Some of the designs I did were used on labels for Heaven Sent and Ribbon.

I drew the cherubs, sheild and banner in the one and then the crown and banner in the other.
