happy new year ! ! !

Happy New Year! May it be the best one yet ! 

invincible spring ... in the midst of a seemingly endless winter . . .

Image
It's like keeping a fireplace (within you) going. Just another log... another floral pattern. That... and 'oh so sweet' family time. That also helps to melt the wintery white.

dog's day . . .

Image
Every dog has his day... and this bunch are having theirs today... in my imaginary garden:).

flow book for paper lovers . . .

Image
A lovely envelop containing ' Flow Book for Paper Lovers ' arrived in the mail. Exiting! As a stationery and pattern lover I think that it's a treasure trove. Cards, wrapping paper, stickers and envelopes... Oh my! Plus, my ' Wild Horses ' pattern is featured in a few places. Pleased as punch:)...

Wild Tea Party . . .

Image
If you need a break from the holiday imagery that seems to be everywhere (not that I'm opposed... but I like variety :)  - you've got it. A wild tea party in paradise is as far from shovelling the drive way or shopping in the mall as you can get. Hope it gives you warm thoughts...

daylight . . .

Image
A bright, scandinavian repeat - to prolong short winter daylight:).

adventure sprouts . . .

Image
Pink is a very happy colour. It didn't used to be a favourite, but I've changed my ways.

holiday gift tags . . .

Image
Here we are in December once again:). 2 feet of snow on the ground -  check. Terrible music in the stores -  check. Winter blues making me buy watermelons in bulk -  check.

bring it on ! . . .

Image
Fifteen cm of snow is what I've been promised to see when I open the curtains tomorrow morning... and so, I  feel that showing you the gift card I designed for Target is the right thing to do. Maybe you'll see it next time you are picking a few things at the big red and white store:).

llama happy . . .

Image
It might be getting colder, it might be getting darker... and it definitely snowed today, but I refuse to be unhappy! Concentrating all my powers on happy work! How do you like my happy llama? 

hello little birds . . .

Image
Did some watercolouring last weekend. Still trying to escape autumn. Works better when I use greens:).

once upon a time . . .

Image
Sometimes, after I read a book, it stays with you a long while. It happened with 'Stardust' (by Neil Gaiman) to me. I wanted to hold on to the magic just a little longer... and so, I made a print . I hope it prolongs the  fairy tale :).

avian princess . . .

Image
The colder the weather gets, the brighter are the colours I choose. We are going to get enough vitamin Grey in the next 6 months as it is:).

sweet semicircle . .

Image
A little abstraction to distract me from the cold wet weather. Maybe it'll distract you too a little:).

the world of two digit birthdays . . .

Image
My sweet middle daughter M a r g o is entering the world of two digit birthdays next week. I've made this little invitation and am looking forward to a house full of noise next Sunday:).

more candy . . .

Image
Eye candy for the fall season. Wouldn't rot your teeth. Wouldn't leave wrappers around. No calories either:).

blue spirit bloom . . .

Image
His royal spirit was blue and there was a bloom in his heart.
