Paper bead update - at long last

It has been a while since I released some new beads. There should have been a new collection in the spring but my mojo just couldn't handle it. So they were abandoned. Now, at long last, I have created some autumn themed paper beads. Harvest, trees, fruit and all things autumn. Autumn is my favourite time of year and I think that helped me choose these images. They have certainly been very popular so far.

Wildlife greetings cards and stickers for a new dawn - hopefully.

I did it! I finally got some greetings cards and stickers made up with my art on. I can't believe it! For years I wanted to have my work on greetings cards - even submitting my art to many card publishers. Much to my disappointment, I was rejected each time. I was approached by a card company a few years back to design a card for the RSPB too - but after initial contact from the company I heard nothing more. As a result I am horribly nervous about putting my cards out there now.

This is just a small run to start with but I am hoping to add new designs over time.
