A little bit of romance for every day and Valentine's Day. A combination of free, public domain and bought resources, vintage and modern elements combined to make this illustration. It's the kind of thing I used to doodle at school. :-)

Crafting

It's been a couple of weeks of crafting and all sorts of little things, in preparation for Christmas.

These are last week's fruits of my labour:

Hearts, 

birds 

and stars, wooden shapes covered in fabric (birds), paper and glitter: Ready to hang.

This is how I started off yesterday:

These bits of tissue paper became

flowers:

 and then were attached to a wire frame:

 which in turn was covered in at least 40 but more like 50 flowers to hang as a wreath on my door. :-)

These little fellows and their fellow bambi wooden shapes were first fixed up with some brooch pins and little hangers (or in the case of the bambis relieved of their bits of string),

 then covered in a couple of coats of paint:

before they were painted individually, little owls

 and little foxes

and bambi had a coat of glitter applied:

They all still need a coat of varnish, then they can go off into the world, except for the bambis, the first lot of ornaments and the wreath, those are this year's Christmas decorations. :-) If you want a little owl or fox (pendant or brooch, colours available are brown, white and black), give me a shout, otherwise they'll go in my Etsy shop soon.

I had a bit of fun with vector shapes, patterns and the lovely Amatic font. I wanted something that is simple and complex at the same time and felt this would work perfectly for a wedding invitation, or an anniversary card or just because. I am happy to personalise these for weddings and anniversaries. Just send me an e-mail either through the contact button on the right-hand side or through any of the outlets below.

Hearts everywhere!

Hearts seem to be a naturally occurring shape, maybe that's why it's such a pleasing shape or maybe it means love can be found everywhere? I found this 'chip' and just couldn't resist taking a picture of it. And doesn't it look pretty after I added some colour adjustments and textures? One of the textures is a picture I took of Angelina Fibre. :-)

One for you and one for me. I knitted the fingerless gloves from a pattern I found on Craftsy for a friend for Christmas. The dragon was a present for me from a friend. :-) Little wave to uniqart.

Happy New Year everyone! Hope all your wishes come true.
