Just a little post,tonight i am off to babysit my gorgeous nephew Sunny! He’s the same age as Juniper (3 weeks apart) and super duper cute!
Had a bit of a crappy start to the week,hard times with Tyler J,just being a whingy yelling toddler n all that. I had a moment of wanting to put him in Kindy full time and go get a real job *YIKES*,but then i’d have to do it for Juni too and don’t want to do that! Luckily i got over that thought and will move onwards and upwards with my work from home and try to make the most of my time here…and just keep thinking ‘this is just a passing phase’…


rain rain don’t go away

i am still loving this rainy wet weather we are having here…it’s been super perfect conditions for staying indoors and drawing and drinking too much tea n coffees…
i think our little getaway to sydney was also very inspiring to me,just to have a change in the regular routine for a few days,was a breath of fresh air. Ahh i need to do that more!

i don’t often post my sketches,but i have sooo many i’m going to start doing it. i have books full of them,some are crappy some are cool…some are plain weird. here’s a few from lately


sunday sweet treats

dear kittens,long time between posts…it’s sunday afternoon here,Juni is sleeping,Tyler is playing games and it’s raining –i’ve got a cup o coffee and ready for a quick blog post.

here’s a re-cap of the haps…

josh and i went to Sydney for a quick ADULTS ONLY trip to see the super amazing Mike Patton’s Mondo Cane. If you don’t know what it is,please check out this youtube video –he is simply amazing!

The show was amazing. It was at State Theatre which is a beautiful venue,i would love to see more performances there,but i’m not sure they could top what we saw. I highly doubt anything could top what we saw. Am i saying amazing too much? Well that’s because it was!
After the show on the Monday night we met up with friends and the night didn’t end until very early in the morning on a rooftop of a crazy apartment block –good night with lots of shenanigans,this happens when you have been captive in home with 2 small kids for a long time.


everyones talkin ’bout resolutions

but me!
here’s a cute pic instead!
HAPPY 2012 mah peeps!



happy woodland girl

the past few days i have been snazzying up a series of new cute woodland girls…here is the first one…she makes me happy


shit girls say

OMG it’s christmas time soo soon! It’s come along so fast,i can’t believe it.

I’ve started WALKING in the MORNING! Gasp! And i’m loving it! I’m going *almost* everyday between 5am –6am for about 20 to 30 mins. Lots of silly hills up my way so it’s a good walk and a great way to start the day. I like listening to podcasts…do you know any good ones to make me laugh or motivate me to start the day? I’ve found a few that sound good but turn out to be duds :(

Already have lots of projects coming up for next year to work on,going to be very exciting.

I love this little vid! It’s too fun.


moo cards and stickers

Yesterday Mr Postman delivered some moo cards to me! I got them as a special deal from having an etsy store –they were free! You just had to pay for the shipping which wasn’t much,so I also had to get some stickers too –they turned out cute and I am happy. The cards had an annoying band down one side to promote MOO which I knew would be there,but it’s not so bad.

The photos don’t really do them justice –i need my trusty photographer Jules to help –or invest in a super good better camera.

Have you had moo cards made before? I think they are a great idea. I like how you can get a lot of different images printed all at once,it was linked up to my Flickr account so it was easy to select and do. I think you could do it with photos and on the back it has your contact details –great idea really.

The stickers are about the size of a button –i think these are great for promo or giveaways.

Other things happening,I have just finished a commissioned job and have been volunteering my design skills to Tylers Kindy and created a cute little recipe book for their end of year fundraiser. Hooray! I’m also working on another verrry cool project but will keep you posted on that later!

I gotta get ready,it’s kindy day today,hooray!
