I’ve stripped out a bunch of my old screens, destapled them and installed a whole new screen.  They’ve been coated in pretty green chemicals and I’m just waiting for them to dry.  Hopefully I’ll have some time tomorrow afternoon to burn in the new images.

Here’s a peek of whats to come…

Attention Fans of Kitsch

I’ve added some of my new line of magnets to my Etsy page.  I’ve created them using clippings from vintage magazines and newpapers.  I pick out the things that seem funny to me and hope that they make you smile too.

Here’s a sneek peek at some of them:

Now in Red!

I just finished up my yellow and brown quilt last night and I’m just beginning to cut pieces for my next one.  I’m really digging my latest screen print design, so I’ll be integrating it into this newest piece.  The colour scheme for this one will be red and white (predominantly white with ultra cool red accents).

 

Anyway, here’s a sneak peek at my newest print in RED!

Newest Print

I just wanted to share my newest silk screen print with everyone.  It’s my own design, but I’m the first to admit that it’s heavily influenced by the work of Lotta Jansdotter.  Her work is so beautiful and absolutely refreshing. 

 

I created this graphic using a combination of hand drawn illustrations, Photoshop and Microsoft Paint.  I’m pretty darn happy with the way it came out.

 

Right now I’m incorporating the design into a quilt I’m working on, but I have a feeling it will show up elsewhere too!

And Your Little Notebook Too…

Its always super exciting to pick up my freshly bound book from Staples.  Last week I had six or seven put together, but quite a few of them sold at Skeleton Park. 

 

The process of creating these is a lot of fun.  I get to ravage local thrift shops for cute as kittens books.  Then I get to relieve all frustrations by ripping those sweet little books apart.  I get to incorporate a little sewing, scissors and my handy dandy laminating machine.

 

Check out my Etsy site to see some more details on these fantastic new pieces!

Hot Fruit

I’ve wanted to make soft toys for a long time now.  Months ago I bought a fabulous book called Softies.  Definitely one of the cuter books in my collection.  A while later I bought another book called Plush You.  That put the need for toys in overdrive.

I’ve played around with a few designs that I thought I’d like, but I was never super super pleased with the results.  Then I spent sometime with Photoshop and created a small cast of the worlds most awesomest fruit pack.  I call them Hot Fruit in homage to the notoriously funny show Strangers with Candy (please do not allow small children or your grandmother to watch this program).

Here’s your first chance to meet my newest friends….

I’ll be posting them on my Etsy soon enough.  They’re also being sold at Made 4 You in Kingston, Ontario.

I hope you like them as much as I do!

Girlie Prints

I’ve ravaged a couple of containers of clothing that I’ve had for a while and turned them into something a little more interesting.

I’m thinking that I will be adding these to my site, but I have to take some time to consider pricing and such.  These may also show up on Etsy.

Here are some of the pieces that I really dig.  Soon I’ll be sharing some of the men’s pieces that I’ve been working on.

I found some time today to sand down and then photograph some of the resin belt buckles I’ve been working on.  I thought I would take some time to share my new pieces with the big ol’ world.  If you’d like to check out an album of photos you can click here.

Here’s a few of my favourite samples:
