Pebeo Porcelaine Pen : Mixed Tape Mug

I've been drawing on things in the kitchen again! Find out more about my Mixed Tape Mug over at the Creative Collective Blog for my final post of the September "For the Boys" project.

Have a fabulous weekend!

VW Beetle and Mini Minor Car Stamps

This week was my first venture into printmaking with car shapes. I love the older car designs so chose to carve a VW Beetle (or bug) and a Mini Minor. 

I then also played with some ideas as to how you can use the stamps for a boys party. You can find further details on this over at the Creative Collective Blog as part of their September theme " For the boys".

Composing photos from Grandmother's sewing tin

 I do have two boy themed stamps to show you later in the week but in the meantime I thought I'd share with you some pics I've been creating from my Grandmother's sewing tin contents.

Pretty coloured spools of thread

(boil proof for when you need to wash items in your copper!)

Tube of pins. I love this Cross Fox trademark.

So much to be said for simple strong graphics on packaging.

My favourite app to use is Photo Studio but there are lots of others to choose from. There are more photos here on Webstagram.

If you have your Grandmother's sewing kit too I'd love to see some pics! Please feel free to share any relevant links to posts or pictures in the comments below : )
