E sting..

So at college we've started our specialist projects, ive never been so excited! todays been a pretty good day.

I wake up to find my boyfriends making breakfast while i get ready!, philidelphia on toast! my fave and a nice cuppa tea, made just the way i like it!

Then off to college to see my gorgeous girls, who both had gleaming smiles today! it couldnt have been a better start :D

So back to the point.. the task set for the next couple of weeks is to make an E sting -( for all thoose who dont know what i mean - the ten second little shot inbetween shows that advertise E4 ) the most recent being the one with the mouth ?

So me and my girlies did some brain storming and came up with a fab idea, ya'no how in costa coffee, they sprinkle cocoa powder ontop of your drinks if you want, usually there in the shape of a heart or a coffee bean.

We've adapted this idea, and we've decided to make an E4 stencil and do the same, we're so excited about it , we did a rough try today.

sorry about the poor quality of picture!

i will deffinatly keep you all update and be sure to post the final outcome when its ready!
Happy Blogging :)

Printmaking

One of my friends mums, loves making cakes, and just recently in printmaking i made a print of this cupcake, i decided that i was going to adapt this and consider what it could be used for, so i made this little logo..

hopefully there will be more on the way!

Printmaking!

i made this using photoshop and illustrator.

Baby Picasso!

so as you may be aware for christmas i brought my little sister a chalk/drawing board, and she loves it!
she's using it non stop, but thats not the reason ive written this blog, just recently we decided to do a remake of her hand prints with paint, after we had i decided to let her play with the paints and do a spot of painting, and she loved it too, shes like baby picasso!

it was way too tempting to join in so i did, unfortunatly, she decided she'd paint her feet and then go for a wonder around the room, but luckily we have laminate so nothing was ruined, but in all it was fun and games! and there are some beautiful out comes!,, i now know who i can turn to when i need some help painting!

happy blogging :)
