🦋 Say hello to Lily! 🦋
Thank you @sarahdoesdesign_ for naming her.
She started off with blonde hair (scroll across to see that) but just felt more like a red head.
Her sentiment simply says, "Hello Beautiful!" She is talking to you! Every time you look at her you will reminded that you are a beautiful soul. ❤
Available now as a limited edition print. Choose from framed or mounted, or maybe you'd like to send her ad a greetings card?

Hello,
This little one appeared this afternoon.
I'm not sure what she will wear yet or what her sentiment will say, definitely still a work in progress.
What do you think her name should be?
She looks like she has a secret she is dying to tell 😍

So, if you got my newsletter then you will know what this picture is.....
( what do you mean you aren't signed up??? The link is in the bio 😁)
I decided to make a video of an art journal page using my Polly Dolly stickers.
Which I did. Then I had to learn how to edit it - easier said then done let me tell you!!
But there is, out in the land of YouTube a video made by me 😊
Obviously if you're good at that editing business it will be terrible, but I'm chuffed to bits with it!
There will be more, with fewer mistakes,( there are many in this one 🙈) but if you have time give it a watch.
If I was a real Youtuber I'd say, " don't forget to like and subscribe ".... but I'm not 😅😅😅

My book is part of the 'Little Reader' prize pack on Alison Curtis's show!

The Bride and Groom have been around for a long time. I'm always delighted when I hear the happy couple liked the card or print.
Then I added 'Mr & Mr' and 'Mrs & Mrs' , again the couples loved them.
But do you what I am asked for time and time again?
A bride with dark hair!
So now whether your bride is blonde or brunette there is a card or print to gift them.
The new print will be online asap!
So, today is 9 years since T.F.D......
TFD stands for, That Fateful Day.
Thst was the day I had an accident that changed a lot of things. But, as you know, every cloud has a silver lining.
From this came the decision to concentrate on my art and make it a business. That decision came after using painting as physiotherapy. It wasn't instant, it took a very long time, but it turned out I could still paint and all the practice made me define my style.
I learnt to have patience with myself, to be really determined to not let this stop me doing things.
I also had to practice writing with my left hand. So I started to write a story about Miss Polly whose fingers were bitten off by a crocodile.....
8 years later, that book was written, re- written , edited, illustrated and published!!!!
I am very proud of my book, I'm not sure if would ever have happened with T.F.D.!
There is a link in my bio if you'd like to listen to me reading the first chapter.

Happy World Book Day!!
Today I will leave this book somewhere in Killarney......
As the tag says, Finders Keepers!!
If you find it, I hope you enjoy it.

🌸 "Do you sell stickers for your notebooks?"
( The answer is always 'yes' then learn how to do it right?)
🌸 So, after MUCH learning and experimenting I have Polly Dolly stickers!
Now, there is a bit of perfecting to do, but they will be ready very soon 🥰🌸

Say hello to Lola!
Lola is very wise, her sentiment says,
🌸" Whether you think you can or you can't you are right".🌸
She reminds us to think positively, to believe in ourselves and that if things don't go to plan it's ok.
Be kind to yourselves this weekend lovelies. Xx
