from sketchbooks to handmade cards















I'm often asked about how I design and make my cards.  My sketchbooks are where I develop my ideas.  At the moment I'm developing my watercolour and drawing techniques...little Sailor is a joy to draw!

Here is my illustration of a fox which became "What a Fox" and yes I do embroider all the hearts individually and cut them out by hand!
