Yey I finally finished my latest card set and here’s a little mosaic of all the illustrations!
I will show the full pictures at some point too.
They are for sale in the shop now as a pack of six cards, and I have to say I am very proud of my little self : )
Like a lot of my pictures, they tell a kind of vague story, I suppose this one would go…..
….Girl meets bear, they dance, she looses her hat, then they have a cuddle and go to sleep!
What’s that all about then?!! LOL
I hope you like them, I have enjoyed making them in between shifting furniture and entertaining my youngest.
I have another set on the way which I will share with you soon!
Other news is that yesterday I went for my second ever horse riding lesson!!
Ooo It was so exciting! I am loving it, I got to ride a beautiful big white horse called Gulliver It was fab!
Today walking is odd, my legs are not sure what has hit them.
Hope you are all having a great week so far!

What a lovely set of cards-might be most appropriate by the end of the week looking at the weather forecast

Caroline …these cards are beautiful..making me smile…LOVE the story…
I esp like the kissing one, and the swinging high in the air one…and where the bear ends up wearing the hat!!!
The movement in your drawings is FABulous.
Can I buy some from you direct????
or is that being cheeky?

Hey there!
I’m kinda dropping by randomly (& kinda dropping by to hit you with my EC) to tell you about this new selling site I found. It’s called ArtFire.com & you should check it out.
It’s still really, really new (still in beta) but it’s heading in a really good direction! They are already buying advertising online & in print magazines to bring in traffic to the site. (It’s already got almost as much traffic as indiepublic.com)
It’s got stats for shop views so you know where your customers are coming from! I know! Gasp! Faint! Right? hehe
& it’s just $7 a month (for the first 5000 artists) to list & sell as much as you can FOREVER. $7 a month no matter what! I signed up on that alone! haha
Anyhoo, it is new so there aren’t zillions of people using it (which is good & bad) but I thought you might want to take a look at it. With the ad campaign they are working on kicking in soon (or so they are saying), I think it’s going to be a good place to start listing!
If you sign up, give me a yell & let me know what you think!
Always,
Amy

November 23, 2008 at 7:37 am |
Yes fiona,

I love these! They would make a cool short animation, all set to music. You should write a little book based on them. Of course, I would want 5% of the profits for thinking of the idea!” lol
