Kanji Cat
A late night doodle.. trying my new watercolour brushes. Does this pumpkin orange kitty mean Autumn is on the way? Hmm..
P.s. Thanks for all your votes in the Connecting Threads contest. My Roselyn design has 132 votes - far more than I expected. You guys are awesome!
Rainbow Sauce
I love spaghetti sauce. Onion, tomato, zucchini, carrot and (of course) garlic. So I drew it. I like how the colours run together the same way the flavours do.
Just a few random updates...
My hubby and I have been very domestic lately. We haven't done much to our new house since we moved in, so it's about time.
So, I hung some art in the bedroom last week. Since summer is here we bought a grill for the patio, and some cozy chairs for the living room will be here in a few weeks. One wall of the livingroom will be covered with bookcases (for his 700+ book collection).
I'm working on some custom fabric designs - unfortunately I can't show you anything yet, but I will when they are done!
Annaliese received her fabric from the Spring Cleaning giveaway - check out her blog post here: http://thepewteracorn.blogspot.com/2011/06/i-got-mail.html
Safari Scrapbook for Project Selvage
Say hello to Safari Scrapbook... my entry in the Project Selvage fabric design contest sponsored by Spoonflower and Michael Miller fabrics.
Sweet safari animals parade across the pages of your scrapbook! Each animal has something to say, so don't forget to zoom in for a closer look. The background features a hand-drawn "scrapbook paper" design of vintage cameras.
Today was the deadline for the contest and with everything that has been going on lately, I thought I wouldn't be able to finish it in time! Thankfully it's done and I'm quite happy with how it turned out.
It looks like the contest may have over 1,000 entries so far. It's amazing that so many people are interested in fabric design. Best of luck to everyone who entered!
If my design is chosen as one of the 75 semi-finalists it will be open to the public for voting. In the meantime, you can see the contest entry page here.
Valentine's Animal Postcards
Happy early Valentine's day! I made some cute animal postcards that you can print out and share with your sweetheart and friends.
There are 4 postcards per page, each featuring a pair of cute animals - bashful piggies, love-struck bunnies, cuddling cats and lovey ducks.
I decided to go with some bright springtime colours for these cards - who says Valentine's cards always have to be pink and red? I really hope you enjoy these. :)
Some suggestions for cheesy sayings to write on the back:
Pigs:
Won't you be my Valenswine?
Bunnies:
Lettuce never be apart!
Cats:
You make my whiskers curl.
Ducks:
I'm quackers over you!
P.s. If you love these cards, share the love by donating a few dollars to help out some real-life cute animals!
Hearts on Noses Mini Pig Sanctuary in Maple Ridge, BC has been caring for abandoned and neglected pot-bellied pigs and other animals since 2002. Each pig at the sancutary gets to live with a friend in a little house with a fenced yard.
We love to go out and visit the pigs and bring them snacks (peanut butter sandwiches, strawberries and popcorn) and give them lots of back scratches. There are few things cuter in life than seeing little pigs line up for back scratches.

How to make a lion happy
Nothing makes this lion happier than going to the salon for fuchsia highlights.
