The Wedding Order

The personalised wedding card commission is complete! Twas a lovely job to do and here are some photos of the finished order...

Weddings and Babies

The next issue of the magazine is in production so I am back at the computer looking at my lovely new flat screen monitor which arrived yesterday. It looks very fancy!

Apart from designing, I am working on a lovely commission at the moment to make 16 cards for a customer's wedding guests. Each card has the recipient's name(s) included and some of them are nicknames which makes them even more fun and personal. I am about a third of the way through the order so I'll post some photos of the finished collection soon!

The wedding and new baby season is in full swing it seems and it has been a busy time for Personalised cards. Here are a few of the latest Storeyshop requests...










Well I better get back to my fashion layout. I can't believe it's friday again already. DIY and card cutting this weekend I think and hopefully the odd nice meal out. We have a new restaurant recommendation from Postmaster John to try!

New Monkeys

I've been busy making monkeys between design jobs. Much as I like designing, it makes such a nice change to make things again and get away from the computer. The weather has even been nice enough to take Storeyshop production into the garden some days! Here are few of the new monkey designs..

They are all available to buy online now! They will also be for sale at the Chainbridge Honey Farm's 'Charity Vintage and Classic Rally' in Berwick Upon Tweed on Sunday 31st August 2008 (contact me through my shop if you would like more details)

Great Swim

I have just had confirmation of a place in the Great Swim on September 13th 2008! I'll be taking part in a mile long open water swim in Lake Windermere. I better get training. Weights tonight and swimming at least twice a week in the local outdoor pool..

I'll be taking part in aid of Marie Curie Cancer Care and am aiming to raise as much money as possible for this great charity. Please sponsor me but clicking the link on the top on the right.

Thank you!

Something Lovely!

Blue Spotty monkey is now available to buy on Something Lovely. It's a fab online shop with lots of beautiful things! Let's hope he gets lots of admirers and does Storeyshop and Something Lovely proud. Storeyshop monkeys are still jetting off around the world. Two went off to Las Vegas this morning and two emigrated to Canada last week!

I am still stupidly busy with the new magazine, logo designing and Storeyshop but it's fun and definitely keeping me occupied. Beca and I have just signed up do do another We Make craft fair in London at Christmas time so I'll be packing a case full of Storeyshop goodies again and trundling down to London. Will keep you posted..

Oh yeah, click here and here for a couple of photos of Storeyshop's stall at We Make London in June!

The Postman Brought Treasures!

The post has just arrived and included lunch time treats! I love my rose bobby pins that I bought from creamrose at We Make London so much that I had to buy more..





Here is my collection. How nice are they? They came in a lovely little box too and with a freebie.

Have a lovely weekend! Ta ra

Neopolitan

Here's my new Etsy treasury with a Neopolitan ice cream theme! I am up to my eyeballs in magazine and logo design at the moment so blogs will be a bit few and far between but check out these lovely items here.
