Fame at Last!! Featured in Giftrap Magazine!!


Great news for me this month, I was featured in a full 2 page spread in the retailer's magazine Giftrap!
The editor Gillian Samuel loved the images of my new Quirky Kooky range that I emailed her and a few weeks ago called me up out of the blue for a phone interview!

Never done anything like that before so it was a bit daunting, but she's a great journalist, really easy to talk to and before I knew it we'd been chatting for about half an hour and she had pretty much my whole life story and how I came to be making these quirky cards!

I've never had anything like this happen to me before, it's so exciting!
Already had loads of emails from people who've seen the article!!

The story is online at the Giftrap website or on Twitter.

Fantastic Creatures!!


I've got a new range of cards and I just LOVE 'em!

It was a dream that inspired this range, so it was quite surreal to finally get it into production...They are based on the idea of story books, the kind of wild fantastic creatures that appear in children's books.

The text that you can see is the story and it's as if the animals have come to life from the printed page...kind of how it feels when you're a child!

Then I've finished off the design with some 3D handmade items, to give them a real crafty look.
What do you think?
