Interesting News


Well... two of my fave bloggers Lara from Kirin Notebook and Bianca from Hollabee along with another friend of theirs Teegs have started a new venture..Ink and Spindle.

Ink and Spindle will be focused on creating a yardage screen printing business, with an environmentally friendly focus. Their aim is to be available to anyone who’s keen to have their own designs printed onto textiles, great news for wannabe fabric designers everywhere.

I look forward to following their porgress on the blog listed above!

Good Luck ladies..!

Gocco Swap!


So I just got my group today for the Gocco Swap initiated by Sarah @ http://clothpaperstring.typepad.com/. With over 50 people involved, the aim is to split everyone into groups of 10 or so and each group exchange a set of gocco printed notecards! So good...! So in theory I should end up with 9 different notecard sets.

I have to go get working on some ideas, I am fairly new to Gocco, so it gives me an excuse to get creating!
I will be posting my attempts soon.

Travelling Gocco!

Ok so I wanted to make something special and cool for my brother, who is about to embark on yet another 6 month travel adventure and I decided to combine my love for Gocco and Moleskins and make a set of Travel Diaries for him to take with him.

So this is what I came up with...rather pleased with the result as it was only my second gocco project- the first was a rather rushed 'can't wait to get stuck into it' attempt so I may refer to this as my first.







I save the barcode tags from all the places I have been and I always knew I would have a use for them one day!

My first post on the new Little Letters blog...! So what is this about, after many years of procrastination I have decided to try and do something with all my crafty ideas. It will take a bit of time and experimentation to get there but it should be a bit of fun along the way. I plan to open an Etsy store at some stage when I come up with some things I think people might buy!

There will be some printing, photography and general craftiness popping up as well as some of my favourite crafty people.
