Brightly Coloured Fun

This week I've been having fun making bright and colourful things just for fun! Here's two of them for your viewing enjoyment:

Tea + Jam

I spoke to a little shop selling locally designed and made cards and various other crafts and they said if I could come up with some cards for spring/v-day season then they might take some on for me.

The link above will take you to the post with my work and the sketch it was based on by FitzFitzpatrick. It was an interesting exercise and I'd definitely like to do it again. :)
