Happy October!
By the light of a magical moon autumn has arrived. It's time for the sleepy fox to kiss her cub goodnight as they prepare to settle down for the winter ahead.

Over at my Etsy shop it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. This year there are four new card designs to add to the collection, plus my 'Nutcracker' design has been released as a gift wrap just in time to make those special presents pretty. 
Cards are available as singles and packs of 2, 4, 6 and 12 to mix and match and many have a matching gift wrap design.  

Here on the blog I am sharing what's new
​and what is back in stock for this festive season...

First up, the four new card designs to add into my mix and match packs of A6 cards.
There is a theme of peace and folk art for these new additions to the collection.

Next, is a closer look at my new 'Nutcracker' gift wrap...

There is plenty of stock in of festive favourites to help add a special finishing touch
for a 'Blooming Lovely Christmas'...

I hope you enjoyed having a closer look at this year's Christmas collection.
It may feel early but with postal lead times and early bird Christmas shoppers spreading the cost this year more than ever - this month seems like the ideal time to share this with you all.

Wishing you a very lovely October!
Best wishes

Happy April!

This month's wallpaper focuses on April's birth flowers.  
Delicate Sweet Peas to symbolise blissful pleasure, gratitude and kindness.  
Sweetly pretty Daisies to symbolise innocence, purity and true love.  
There is much to feel love and gratitude for as spring blossoms!

March has been a productive month for getting stuck into some new designs.

As well as beginning to add lots of new flowers to my language of flowers collection, I have also started creating a collection of gardening and nature inspired occasions cards to launch my new Thortful profile.  

My plan is to also make this collection available on my Etsy and Folksy shops soon, but have a few more designs to add before getting the collection printed and listed.

Meanwhile, I am delighted to share with you the progress on this collection so far for a closer look...

I am also sharing here a closer look at the new additions to the Language of Flowers collection, added to my Etsy shop in the past couple of weeks.

Introducing
​Hydrangea, Forget-Me-Nots, Sweet Peas and Sunflowers...

On the subject of Sunflowers...

Seeing lots of the art community coming together last month to raise donations for The British Red Cross to help the humanitarian efforts in Ukraine, gave me an idea.  

So I released this 'Peace' illustration (originally created as a stand with Ukraine Instagram post) as a printable from my Ko Fi shop - where you can donate what you like, with a minimum of £3, to download and print this artwork from a PDF file.   

As copyright owner, I am also allowing usage of this printable artwork for any charity fundraising for Ukraine.

If you think you can use this image on posters, cards, t-shirts, whatever, to help raise donations for Ukraine, go right ahead.

Usage for profit however is not allowed - strictly personal and charitable use only please....
​

​That rounds up the new designs I have been working on in the past few weeks.
I hope you enjoyed taking a closer look.

Wishing you a very lovely April!
​All the best!
