Good morning! How do you do? I am writing today to both inform you and ask for your help… Almost a year ago, some lovely friends of ours – Russell and Janine – lost their son. It was such a tragedy and I can only begin to imagine what they must have gone through, and are in fact still going through. I’m not a parent myself, but I would think…

Facing fears

Picture 14

Well hello there! How do? I’m currently on holiday but I’m gunna write a blog post in any case. You lucky bugger. So I’m at Center Parcs – having a ball might I add…well…despite all of my war injuries, but, whatever. Anyway, we’re filling our days with activities, which in the main have been fun, but a few days ago, one of these activities was the high ropes. Now, where…

You Knock My Socks Off

you knock my socks off

So tomorrow is valentines day, a day to show some love to your other half, although I think this should be done everyday, no? I wanted to share with you the inspiration behind my bestselling valentine’s day card:     I adore this phrase with all my heart, it’s just such a sweet way of saying ‘I love you’. Anyway, the inspiration behind it.  A friend of mine who goes…

Wedding Inspiration: Rustic Barn

Wedding Inspiration - Rustic Barn

Hello and Merry Christmas one and all :) I hope you are all having a wonderful festive time and getting to relax a bit. Remember a little while ago I blogged behind the scenes shots of a photoshoot I organised? Well…I think it’s about time I blogged about the actual shoot, you know, with the professional photos taken by the rather talented Mr. Melia…don’t you? The shoot took place at…

A little reminder…

              For those of you who know me…I love a good quote. There are so many I could have used for this post, but when it came down to choosing one, this was…you know…’the one’. We all get lost from time to time and end up questioning ourselves…it doesn’t make us weak, it makes us human. It’s all too easy to allow yourself to…

The Designer Wedding Show 2011

Wedding Stationery

Wow. I’m not quite sure where to start with this post. There is so much bubbling around in my over-excited and totally proud little head right now that I fear this is all going to come spilling out in complete gobbledygook – who knew that was an actual word?! Love it. See what I mean?? 4th sentence in and I am already off on an unrelated tangent. ANYWAY. This past weekend…

Well hello there, remember me? I know, I know. This little blog has been well and truly neglected, but I am here to make it all better. It’s not that I don’t have anything to say or share, because trust me, I do; my problem at the moment is finding enough hours in the day to do everything I need or want to do. Blogging isn’t a small task you…

a weekend in pictures

phone 118

I have come to discover that I really do need to get out of the house more. I am a bit of a workaholic and could quite easily spend days on end in front of my computer designing away and filling my head with pretty things found on the wonder that is the interweb – in fact – that is exactly what I do. I tend to feel a bit…

Meet James Melia

2011-05-25_0021

Where to begin with this post – I have SO much to say about this man. James Melia is a photographer who I just love. His style is absolutely gorgeous and if truth be told, his photographs make me a little giddy. I recently had a stationery shoot with him and he was an absolute pleasure to work with. (A preview of the results of that shoot can be seen…
