Free Printable: September Calendar


So, it's almost that time! Autumn will soon be here and you need a new calendar to print out, so feel free to take this one! It seems like summer has raced by so quickly, but I do enjoy crisp autumn days, and it means Halloween sweets are that little bit closer.

Penguins


Who doesn't love cute penguin chicks! This is the illustration I made for last weeks Colour Collective and the selected colour was 'Payne's Grey' which I thought would be perfect for an icy/snowy penguin illustration. I added the little sled as a tribute to Pingu!

Superdry Festival Fashion Competition with The Style Rawr!

A bit of a different post today, but The Style Rawr are currently hosting a rawrsome competition in association with Superdry, and this is my entry! The idea of the competition is to choose a t-shirt from the Superdry range and base a festival inspired outfit around it. Now, I have to confess that I've never actually been to a festival (I just don't like mud!) so I've tried my best to come up with a comfortable look that I think would be suitable. 

You would definitely need a spacious backpack to store all of your gear in; and you can't go wrong with a classic leather jacket. I chose this red one because it matches the floral embroidery on the t-shirt pretty well and it's a little more exciting that a typical black one! Comfortable footwear is a must so these cute trainers fit the bill perfectly, I love the colorful laces too! 

If you'd like to enter the competition or find out more about it, make sure you check out The Style Rawr's post right here! There are some great prizes up for grabs!

Pink Sugar Bakery




This is a little self-initiated project I set for myself based around an imaginary bakery! I wanted to try and create some postcards/posters that could be used for branding and business cards. The last image is probably slightly strange and might not totally fit in, but they are supposed to be gingerbread rabbits!

Pink Flamingo & Chick


Here is last weeks Colour Collective and I think it's one of my favourites so far. Flamingo chicks are just so cute! The chosen colour was 'Magenta Haze' which I used quite sparingly on the leaves and some of the flowers.

Snow White


This weeks princess is the iconic Snow White. I've always thought that Snow was one of the prettiest princesses even though the film itself does freak me out a lot! Anyone else find that?

Be Curious


Today we have a curious little space kitten, just chilling in the solar system. I've featured star kitten before, but I really liked her so I wanted to make a new illustration featuring her. I hope you like it!

Baby Seal Release


"A young seal looks out of a box on the island of Juist, Germany, on July 28, 2015, before being released. The seals were reintroduced into the wild from a breeding station in Norddeich on the German coast."


This is last weeks Colour Collective! I decided to base it on the above photo because I just fell in love with those adorable seals. The chosen colour was 'Champagne'.

Jasmine


Today's Princess is Jasmine! Aladdin was one of my absolute favourite Disney films growing up; I even had some weird handheld video game based on it. I hope you're all having a great week so far!

It's a Small World!


If you're not much of a Disney fan, then you may never have heard of the It's a Small World ride'. It's one of Disney's oldest rides and was partially designed by artist, Mary Blair. It's basically an indoor cruise where you travel to different countries all over the world and there are singing dolls in each country. I've made it sound a little creepy, but kids love it! If you've never heard the song attached to it, do yourself a favour, and don't google it!

Frog Pond


Happy Frog Day! I hope you've all had a great week. So, this is last weeks Colour Collective piece and it's one of my favourites so far. The chosen colour was 'Forest Green' which really inspired me to design a cute pond with some froggy inhabitants. I've recently been uploading my work to Redbubble because they now sell scarves and I think this type of decorative design works really well on them! My mum even ordered one and she said it was really silky!

Hey! Arnold


I don't know about you, but I used to remember watching Hey Arnold! every day after school on Nickelodeon. It was one of my absolute favourite cartoons! I decided to make this little tribute the other week and I'm going to add it to my Society6 because I think it'll look really cool on all over print shirts!

Mary Poppins


Yay, Mary Poppins! Mary Poppins was one of my very favourite movies when I was little, and I still think it's great even now. If you're a fan, I'd definitely recommend Saving Mr. Banks too!
