The month of hearts.....

Seagulls using my fancy new printer/scanner :)

For Christmas I received a Brother printer/scanner which I have just trialled with some seagull scribbles....it's super speedy, super quiet and pretty much awesome! There will quite literally be no stopping me scanning/printing/repeat patterning now! This is all towards the next step of my Wedding Maps business.....(the scanner, not the seagulls!)

I've just set up a Twitter account too.....so once my website is up and running and complete I will be able to shout about it with tweets - just bear with me, I'm in the process of getting it just right! :)

Wedding Map Details

With each map I create I try to include as much detail as the customer requires, to enable as much information within the design. This can include a colour scheme, flowers, a drawing of the venue or church, local landmarks or subjects and the date, names and postcode of evening venue. I am happy to make the image full and busy or neat and simple depending on the wedding theme.

Here are some close ups of detail within the maps I have created so far, to give you an idea of how I go about creating a piece.

Newest Wedding Map :)

This will be the 3rd official map I have created for a wedding now, with the idea of the map to be placed inside the wedding invites for guests to use as means of finding their way to the church/venue/reception.....and to take home as a keep sake of the couples special day.

I am planning on setting up a website in the new year for my Wedding Map Designs as I hope to create more for couples who are planning their big day.

Falmouth Christmas Festival!

I will be holding a stall at the magnificent Falmouth Christmas Festival this year on Events Square.

December 15th - 18th

Come along and join in the festivities the weekend before Christmas......

Local crafts, food and Christmas fun!

*NEW* Button Cards!

A slight take on the buttons I have been creating, nice for a change (especially when making 6 of each - only one of each for these!) I have so far designed 'Merry Christmas' and 'Thank You' cards, but more in the making for when the Christmas season is up :)

Currently being sold at Crowan Crafts in Crowan, Cornwall.

Each card is a mini card, with envelope in a cellophane package.

A Homemade Christmas Advent Calendar.....

My niece Elsie is now 2 and a half....old enough to join her big brother in having an advent calendar to count down the days to Christmas! Seeing as though I made Toms advent calendar it was only fair I made her one too....here are the results: (think I may be making some of these to sell for next year!?!)
