Xmas Cards

Puppy has completely taken over my life!!!!

While she was sleep this morning i quickly made some Xmas Cards to keep my hand in. Have listed them on Etsy. I think i'll make all of my xmas cards this year! It costs a fortune to buy them and how long do they stay up???

Ibuy5 Section on Etsy

Above is one of the items in the ibuy5!

Everything is $5 for this weekend only!

Go check it out :) There have been so many sales already!

I have a section in my shop

Mini Moo has whooped the art out of me!

It's been a week and haven't created a thing!! I've had sleepless nights, messy carpets, crying puppy, bitten fingers and toes, jabs, vet visits and its been great! We're all still adjusting....but getting there :)

This weekend i hope to paint something, although painting on the floor will be a no no from now on unless i wanna create some puppy art ;)

There certainly were fireworks last night

In the form of Mini Moo....she arrived!! And oh wow! She is beautiful and the most loving little bundle of fluff...but omg....its been 14 hours and if this is half as hard as having children....i'm glad i didn't!

She's still only 8 weeks old and very dependent, playful, inquisitive and we got about 5 hours sleep! Every couple of hours she's awake and crying :) She's not toilet trained yet...so a few lil accidents! I have training pads everywhere lol! So...she's asleep right now after having a mad few hours playing so thought i'd quickly update :)

I have many thoughts going round in my head....is this the right thing to be doing is the biggest!

I've just got used to having the fish....and getting their tank around to a healthy state (new additions were 2 snails to help rid the algae problem). But....all of a sudden...this lonely flat has become a cozy home! And hopefully in May next year i will have a house that i so want...and especially for mini now :) Then thats it...i'm done....a wee family is all i needed :)

Colourful new cushions

I purchased these from Veedubz (the purple and green ones). Her cushions are fab! Go check her out!!!

Might list this painting on Etsy today, even though i'm on Etsy strike (SCAB SCAB lol)!!

Autumnal Afternoon Out

I had a really lovely afternoon out at Audley End House yesterday, with my mum and aunt! What a stunning house!!! My Nikon is all back on track but the images are a little dark. Autumn has been beautiful this year....the colours are amazing! And the top pic is my little 'sunny' molly! Such a happy little greedy fish :)

ETSY STRIKE!

I am officially on Etsy strike! If the Royal Mail can do it...then so can i!!! Kinda burnt out with all the promoting i've been doing. I've had to give one refund this week as the item has not arrived (stupid postal system). The annoying thing is, i have no disclaimer (stupidly) on my shop, therefore, out of good will i'm open to refunds. I'm hoping there won't be any more!

There is only 4 days left to vote on my poll (see below) Would just like some feedback on my website that i worked so hard on! :)

Feedback poll

I spent most of the weekend working on my website. Getting the design i wanted...but i'm still not sure it works. I would love some feedback on this!! How can i make this better? what would you like to see? would you use it to see my work????
