heart spotting

My heart radar has been in full swing this weekend!

Not long ago I started a Flickr group named 'Fortutious Heart' it's a happy place to share your fortutious heart shaped encounters!

Please feel free to tune your heart spotting radar and join along!!

check and knit

One of my recent book purchases, 'check & knit' is from the Petit Pattern Book range. Not only do I love the range of patterns showcased, I also love the included CD with the eps and jpeg files of the patterns featured. You can print any of the patterns to make your own cards for friends or wrapping paper or whatever your heart desires!

my creative space

Or perhaps it's a little more like what's on my desk, which is in part my creative space. Lots of books to inspire, I hope to give a sneak peak over the next couple of days... stay tuned.

Thank you Kirsty for hosting 'my creative space'!

trend-spotting

I've noticed of late that the humble donkey is making a comeback. I'm inclined to think that the donkey is becoming the new owl in the design world, if ya know what I mean!
