It is happening!

well, my badge maker and parts finally arrived on Friday! I have spent this morning trying it out, at first I had the parts in the wrong way (yes, always wanting to jump in without reading the instructions...) but after a quick read it was all on. Here are some of the badges I made featuring my own illustrations, I am having the packaging printed at the moment so, they should all be available for sale very soon via my Etsy site keep an eye out for the canvas prints too.

Almost Happening....

Hooray my badge maker is almost here, it shipped last night! soon I will be able to put up some buttons for you to see along with some canvas pics too. I have also ordered a few magnets and keyring backs, so we will see how that goes with delivery time.

I went Perth upmarket on the weekend
www.perthupmarket.com.au
It was great to see so many creative people in one place, with such beautifully designed things. I am really hoping to take part in the next one, if I have all of my stuff ready to submit in time that is...

My fav's from Perth upmarket were;

Rubbergob
Such lovely work and so professionally packaged, really great owl designs. I love the cards and tags, the notebooks are also very nice. I am a stationery nut!

j2aney www.j2aney.etsy.com
This is some of the cutest stuff I have ever seen! so tiny and so detailed, I would not have the patience for this!

Oli B Designs

When I have children I want them wearing funky stuff like this.


here it is!
