Ay Up Its Chris'mas

Arrrggghhh!  Christ'mas is in the shops and it made me feel completely inferior as I haven't thought about Christmas and my family whatsoever - yes I know its early but it was only summer like yesterday and now its mid October! Must get organised this year... must get organised....

Royal Princess Naming Ceremony WOOHOO!!

Soooooo yesterday 13th June - I was VERY lucky to go to the naming of the new cruise ship ROYAL PRINCESS which was named by the Duchess of Cambridge (Kate - Prince William's wife).  IT WAS SHAMMMAZZZZZINNNNGGGG!! Still on a high but need to get back to work at some point.  I could quite easily get used to swanning around in a posh dress drinking champers!

Cumbrian Postcards

So my Cumbrian postcards are now on sale all over Cumbria and are being really well received.  I totally love the range and am so happy to see my work going into lots of lovely shops and big stores!  We are again getting a lot of competition it seems there are new businesses jumping on the regional card wagon every week.  We have been doing this for 3 years now and have a loyal following of lovely stores and customers so our new strap line is "the original and the best"!  Good design will see us through!

All you need is love

All you need is love.  Luv Yer Babe was done for our lovely Scouse customers and A LUV YET PET is a revised design for our Geordie Customers - we also dia a mug - A LUV YET PET - but they've all sold out!  Happy Valentines everyone - I'm just hoping for some pink fizz!

Progressive Greetings Baby!!

We are very pleased to say that we have quite a big feature in this months Progressive Greetings Magazine in the design section.  Its great that we are up there with the big boys!! WOOHOO!!

Manchester Range - North Divide TICK

Very pleased to say the North Divide Range for Manchester has now gone off to print, copyrights all lodged with our agent so we are GO GO GO - well in January we will be when it all goes on sale. The range is really quite big and will include cards, mugs and coasters. The few sneaky clients who've seen it already have all loved it and want it so reaction is good. Thanks to lots of Manc folk who I've rang up and said "would you say this" and "how would you spell that" when getting the dialect and sayings just right. Still go the brochure, all the webstuff and promo to do for it so no rest yet.

GeordieMugs are lush (OFFICIAL)!

Very nice to have a mention in a really fab blog by JoJo Kirtley - a fellow Geordie lass now living in Manchester who's deed clever and writes great stuff including PLAYS - oooooohhherrrr.  Ch-ch-ch-check it oooot....  click on this text  JoJo's blog
