New Work
« Previous EntriesThank You!
Thursday, June 19th, 2008Cakeify is here to say THANK YOU. I think he’s thanking you for continuing to read my blog. I was faffing yesterday and read a thread on the Etsy forums about appreciation pictures in feedback. As a buyer, I never leave a picture with my feedback because I often haven’t done anything with it yet. […]
Sketchbook Nonsense
Tuesday, June 10th, 2008I’ve got too many ideas going on in my head right now. Lots of them are gocco-related but I need to make sure I work them through properly and not just rush on and waste materials. With that in mind, I have been doodling in my sketchbook the last few evenings, just to settle my […]
I Love Buttons
Friday, June 6th, 2008Hands up who loves buttons? Well, the fabric gocco prints have been ironed and tested in the washing machine and can be revealed as drawstring bags! There are two colours available - natural cotton and a pretty aqua blue - both with a print in blue. They’re around 9″ square so there’s plenty room to […]
Gocco experiments
Thursday, June 5th, 2008Well, here is one of my new gocco prints. If you remember the button drawings I did the other month, I finally got around to doing something with them. I have a plan for them involving kraft paper so this was a test print to see how the ink showed up. I think it’s looking […]
Travel Journals and Father’s Day
Wednesday, June 4th, 2008Summer is most definitely here and I’ve been working on some summer-themed items for the upcoming Poppytalk Handmade market. I’ve been collecting up some vintage maps so today I made a couple of travel journals - they’re covered in sections of a 50s vintage map of Central America and embellished with vintage stamps. They’re lined […]
Moooooo!
Wednesday, May 28th, 2008No, I haven’t gone mad - it was just one of my favourite days today; the day the Moo MiniCards run out. I love making new Moo cards but sadly it’s not something I can afford to do just for fun. So I am always rather delighted when my box is empty and I can […]
Gone to the beach - a giveaway!
Monday, May 12th, 2008Okay, I am off for my holidays today, hopefully enjoying some sunshine at Minehead beach above, seeing some great bands, hanging out with my good friends and shopping in London with my sister. I’ll be back on Thursday 22nd so try and manage without me :)
While I’m away, all orders placed in the shop and […]
New gocco prints
Sunday, May 11th, 2008I managed to finish a new batch of gocco prints today which are now available to buy. I’ve used different colours than last time; a rich purple wth subtle hints of gold. These prints are roughly A6 size and printed on white cartridge paper with a deckled edge. This is a small edition of just […]
Random update of fun
Saturday, May 10th, 2008Well, kind of. Here is some news!
<> Further to my evangelising on the greatness of Shopify, they just added an awesome new shipping feature. From now on all orders in my shop that total £20 or more now get free shipping anywhere in the world! You don’t need to enter a code or anything, just […]
Introducing…Cakeify
Thursday, May 8th, 2008I do love the internet. I opened my big mouth a few weeks ago and rashly expressed my wish to bake Shopify a cake, never thinking they might be reading and hold me to it. But they did and kept at me until I had no choice but to actually make them a cake. Since […]
