Little Hedgehog tee!

This morning I received a very exciting package in the post - my copy of my Little Hedgehog t-shirt, which has been printed by All Tropical! 

You may remember that I won the All Tropical weekly design competition last month with my hedgehog design - well, this is the result! It's ace to see Mister Hedgehog looking all cute on a real t-shirt. :]

The tee will soon be available to buy for yourself from both Asos and the All Tropical shop.

Flamingo Love tee!

Oh my goshhh, check out what arrived in the post this morning... My Flamingo Love tee, which has just been printed by All Tropical!

You may remember that I won the All Tropical t-shirt competition back in June with my flamingo design - well, this is the outcome! I'm SO excited to see my design printed onto real t-shirts - it looks ace, and the quality is lovely. :]

The t-shirts even have my name printed on the back, just below the collar. Aces. They will soon be available to buy for yourself on both Asos and in the All Tropical shop.

All Tropical | Little Hedgehog Tee.

I just want to say a super big thank you to all of you who rated, commented on, liked or shared my hedgehog tee design over on All Tropical this week. I found out earlier today that my design WON this week's competition, which means my little hedgehog will be printed onto t-shirts which will then be available to buy through Asos and All Tropical's shop. Yay! Super excited! :]

Also, just a little reminder that if you still need Christmas cards, my shop is the perfect place for you to find some, with cards suitable for both lovers and haters of the festive season. I also listed a couple of new prints earlier, so it's definitely worth a peek.

All Tropical | Little Hedgehog.

Hello my lovelies! I have a little favour to ask. A few weeks ago I illustrated a little hedgehog, and I decided he could look pretty cute as an autumnal tee design, so I've entered him into this week's All Tropical weekly design competition. 

All I need now is a little bit of help from you guys! It would be ace if you could pop over to the All Tropical website, and rate my design. If you're feeling extra lovely, then please leave a little comment too! If you haven't voted before, you will have to register with the site first, but it only takes a second and you don't get any annoying emails from them afterwards, promise. ♥

I would love to see my little hedgehog printed onto real life t-shirts, but I really need your votes to make that possible. You can also vote for my design by liking it on Facebook, or tweeting about it on Twitter.  The more of these you do, the more likely that my design will get printed, so please be ace and vote. A super big thanks you to all of you who do - I really appreciate it. :]

All Tropical | Ghosts of Gone Birds.

This is an illustration I created as a tee design for the Ghosts of Gone Birds challenge for All Tropical. Ghosts of Gone Birds is a project which brings extinct species of birds back to life through the use of different artistic mediums, and the challenge was to design a t-shirt which would 'breathe life back into the birds we have lost'.

I chose to illustrate the Cuban Macaw; a bird which was native to Cuba, and which became extinct due to people disturbing nests to capture young birds to keep as pets. The Cuban Macaw was such a vibrant and brightly-coloured bird that it captured me immediately. It was a beautiful bird to illustrate, and also worked well with the four colour limit, which was a challenge in itself! I think it's such a shame that this bird is no longer around to brighten up our world.

So now it's over to you guys! I would reeeally appreciate all your ratings, comments and likes and it would also be ace if you could tweet about it and share the link with everyone you know. My design needs to be in the top 10 rated designs in order for me to be in with a chance of winning, which would mean my design would be printed on real t-shirts and then sold at the Ghost of Gone Birds exhibition in London next month, which would obviously be amazing! So please get voting!

All Tropical | Lazy Frog Tee.

I just entered a new tee design into the weekly design competition at All Tropical, and so once again I have a tiny little favour to ask you all...

It would be ace if you could pop over to the All Tropical website and rate my design (five palms would make me smile the most), and it would be super lovely if you could also leave a little comment. I would love to see mister frog printed onto real life t-shirts, but I really need your votes to make that possible! If you haven't voted before, you will need to join the site to leave your rating, but it only takes a second, and you will be my favourite forever.

You can also vote for my design by liking it on Facebook, or tweeting about it on Twitter. The more of these you do, the more likely that my design will get printed, so please be ace and vote. A super big thanks you to all of you who do! :]

A little update...

I just thought I'd take a minute to update you all on some of the ace things that have been happening recently. :]

Firstly, I recently opened an Envelope shop, which means my illos are now available to buy on tote bags, cushion covers and other fabric items. Yay! The tote bags are definitely my favourite, and are currently available in three cute designs; Flamingo Love, Bubble Girl and Super Squirrel. They're definitely worth checking out and, as with my Society6 shop, if there's a particular illustration you'd like to see on a particular item, then please let me know and I'll sort it out for you.

I also wanted to say a super big thank you to everyone who voted on my Super Squirrel tee design on All Tropical a few weeks ago. Unfortunately I came second, which means my tee won't be printed, BUT I have now made Mr Squirrel available to buy on a T-shirt in my Society6 shop! He's looking pretty snazzy, so be sure to check him out.

Finally, I wanted to mention a couple of features that have recently been posted about my work. Firstly, I was featured by the lovely Jade Boylan in one of her Creative Café posts. I love reading Jade's blog, so it was a really nice surprise to be asked to feature in one of her posts, and, of course, the feature itself is really lovely. You can read the full post here, and be sure have a read of the rest of Jade's blog too - it's packed full of her cute and brightly coloured illustrations.

I was also recently featured on the Tee Gazette in a post which explains my recent experimentation in tee designs, and highlights some of the tee designs I currently have available in my Society6 shop. You can check out the feature here.

News.

I recently completed an illustration for the super Flamingo Magazine (you will see it sometime in the near future), and today they were lovely enough to publish an interview about me and my work on their website. Yay!

So, if you're interested in finding out why I'd like to be invisible, or you'd like to see a very quick illo of my favourite thing in the whole world ever, then check it the feature here.

I'd also like to tell you all about the little shop I have now opened on Society6. There is now a wider range of fine art prints available (more than are currently available to buy in my Etsy shop) and, even better than that, it is now possible to have my illustrations printed on a range of different products including laptop, ipad, iphone and ipod skins, t-shirts and hoodies. How ace is that?! If you're interested, then it's definitely worth having a peek at my shop. Also, if there's a particular illustration you'd like to have printed on a particular product and it's not currently available in my shop, then please contact me and i'll see what I can for you. :]

One last little thing! There's still a while left to rate my t-shirt design on All Tropical, so please please do if you get the chance. Thank you lovelies. xx

All Tropical | Super Squirrel Tee.

Meet Mister Squirrel! He loves biscuits and he'd love to be printed on a tee! Mister Squirrel is the star of my new All Tropical t-shirt design, and now he really needs your help.

If you'd like to see this little cutie printed on a t-shirt, then we need your votes. Pleeease pop over to All Tropical, and rate my design (five palms would make us very happy). If you're feeling extra lovely, it would be ace if you could leave a little comment too. You will need to join the site to vote for my design, but it only takes a second and you don't get any annoying emails. :]

You can also vote for my design by liking it on Facebook, or tweeting about it on Twitter. The more of these you do, the more likely this little fella will win, so please be super lovely and vote. Thank you. :]

All Tropical | Flamingo Love Tee.

I just want to say a really super big thank you to everyone who rated, commented, liked and shared my flamingo tee design on All Tropical last week. Yesterday I found out that my design WON! Yay! This means that my design will be screen printed onto t-shirts, which will then be available to buy from Asos and the All Tropical shop. Pretty ace! :]

Etsy shop | NEW NEW NEW!

Hello! It's been a while since I last updated you about my Etsy shop, and since I listed some new items earlier today, it seemed like an ace time to tell you all about them. :]

Firstly, I finally have some greeting cards available to buy in my shop! Yay! I have been meaning to design some cards for a while, and recently had an ace opportunity to do so when I designed for the Hand-Drawn Tigerprint competition. I've chosen my favourite cards from the ones I designed, and had them printed on some lovely recycled card. There are three different designs available, so if you have a birthday coming up, or just feel like sending some cute snail mail to a friend, then I definitely recommend you check them out.

 Also, I have been experimenting with using shrink plastic as a way to transform my illustrations into actual tangible items. I have created a range of cute monster badges, which are available to buy here - there are three different monsters to chose from, and they're perfect for brightening up your jacket or bag.

I have also designed a pretty flamingo brooch, and these delicate flamingo earrings.

Whilst we're on the subject of flamingos, I just want to remind you to please please pop over and rate or comment (or both!) on my flamingo tee design. I'd totally LOVE to have it printed, but for that to happen I really need your votes. :]

All Tropical | Flamingo Love design.

Last night, I entered this image into a t-shirt design competition on All Tropical. All Tropical is a site where you rate and comment on t-shirt designs, and then every week a winning design is picked to be printed on real life t-shirts and sold in their online shop - pretty ace!

So I now have a little favour to ask. It would be super ace if you could pop over and rate my design (five palms would be awesome!), and if you're feeling extra lovely, then please leave a little comment too. You will have to join up to vote for my design but it only takes a second and you'll be my favourite forever. You can also vote for my design by liking it on Facebook, or tweeting about it on Twitter. A super big thank you to all of you who vote. :]
