World's End Christmas Craft Fair

What a gorgeous afternoon it is. It is my favourite kind of day. It is sunny with a bit of a chill in the air. A chill which reminds us that Christmas is now not too many months away. Weak link? Okay maybe it is but I just wanted to let you know that I have booked another day World's End Christmas Craft Fair.

A little hut will now be home to Katie Sarah on Thursday 24th November. I will be there from 9am until 8pm if you're interested in a spot of late night shopping.

The full list of times and dates that I will be at World's End is now as follows:

Sunday 13th November 10am - 4pm
Wednesday 16th November 9am - 4.30pm
Thursday 24th November 9am - 8pm
Sunday 27th November 10am - 4pm

Have a lovely afternoon and a great weekend!

Ladybug Love

When I was at school, there used to be a tree that was home to a good handful of ladybirds. It was known, mindbogglingly, as 'The Ladybird Tree.'

I don't know a lot about creepy crawlies but if I had to choose a favourite (if choosing my favourite  was ever actually necessary) the ladybird would definitely be up there in the top three! I am talking about the striking scarlet and black, spotted kind; the sort that despite their tiny size, stand out from any foliage.

This card is actually one of my most popular when it comes to craft fairs. It has been bought for birthdays, thank you letters and just 'thinking of you' notes. It has one I rarely stop making!

Legend has it that if a ladybird lands on you, your wish will come true! Where are you when I need you little ladybug?!

I hope you have a good day!

Happy Hedgehog

I don't think I've ever actually seen a hedgehog up close but I think they are really sweet. I'd love to have one of those hedgehog homes in the garden! 

This birthday card was a commission from a couple of years and was really quite fun to make. I make all my cards by hand with a pair of scissors so it involved cutting out a lot of pointy triangles - quite repetitive but also relaxing! These layered prickles together with the hedgehog's head and feet cast shadows and give some depth to the design which I think is quite appealing. 

I hope you have something nice to look forward to this weekend! Have a good one.
