As I was browsing through art.com I discovered the beautiful vintage style photography of Mandy Lynne and I thought it was so pretty and girly that I just had to share it with you!

I suspect that those who love using instagram and who generally like a girly vintage, 1950s/ 60s look will like these photos too!

Every day I enjoy finding a new talented individual who creates beautiful things. Today, I discovered the artist Pamela Gladding who creates stylish flower paintings amongst other beautiful paintings.

Here is a selection of my favorite floral paintings by her:

Today I discovered the beautiful macro nature photography work of Sharon Johnstone.

I love how she captures the brilliant colors of nature, the beauty of light on water droplets and how she achieves it all with a touch of feminine softness.

Today I discovered the beautiful work of artist Jane Purcell who specializes in floral animal silhouettes and other pretty floral designs. Jane even does personalized custom pet silhouette floral prints, which I thought was a fantastically original and thoughtful gift idea!

I created this Bird Family art collage from gift wrapping paper, tissue paper and paper doilies. It is my first ever collage! I had lots of fun making it! ^_^ (more…)

Today I discovered the talented Serbian photographer, Dragana Knezevic who produces photos of the most beautiful, glittering, magical flowers and I wanted to share of some her beautiful work with you!

I’ve been a member of the website, Cafepress, for a couple of months now. Cafepress is a great website that enables anyone to become a designer for a *huge* range of products, from t-shirts to jewelry, and from iphone covers to car license plates!

Today I signed into my account after being away from it for a couple of weeks and I discovered that they’ve expanded their already broad product range to include an opportunity to design your own bedding! For someone like me who has enjoyed designing things from a very young age (I remember begging my parents to take me to places where they let you decorate your own plates and mugs as soon as I could talk!), the prospect of being able to make your own bedding filled me with excitement!

After a couple hours of playing around with designs, I created these, my very own duvet cover designs and pillowcases: (more…)

Have you ever heard of RedBubble? I discovered it about one year ago, when I first opened my Zazzle store. I had a quicky look at the site, and I thought “that’s not for me”.

However, today I changed my point of view.

I don’t remember if RedBubble were already creating iPhone cases when I first checked their site, but after I had a closer look at their cases, I totally fell in love! I decided then, to give a try at their marketplace and added a few of my designs to it:
