I’ve recently been working on some more ‘handmade’ products to add to my stationery collection. I’m really enjoying doing calligraphy and also being able to put my watercolour skills to use so I’ve been trying out these calligraphy place settings. These new place setting cards are made with a lovely heavy weight watercolour paper with […]
Watercolour wedding invitations
This watercolour wedding invitation was one of my favourite projects to work on and has become one of my favourite designs. My bride had ordered a sample of my watercolour roses wedding invitations and wanted to have the same styling and layout but with new watercolour flowers and foliage. I love an excuse to get […]
Art Nouveau Style Wedding Invitation
One of my recent bespoke designs was for a couple who wanted an Art Nouveau style wedding with invitations to match. It was an exciting challenge to take on as it’s quite a detailed and very distinctive style. I have to admit I was quite nervous sending over the initial proof as it took a […]
My new hobby – Modern Calligraphy!
Modern calligraphy is my latest obsession! It all started after I did a workshop last year with the fantastic Emerald Paper Design in Cheltenham.
