TIS the Season!!!!!

Reindeer are one of my favorite things about the Festive Season (she says, resolutely trying not to mention the C word) - I like to think of them as a symbol of the working woman - in a very Post Feminist way - (only the female deer keep their antlers all year round, the males have to grow a new pair every year to replace broken bits from rutting etc, so ALL of Santa's reindeer, as traditionally depicted, are GIRLS!!!) they are cute and fluffy and consummate career women!
All the stamps and whatnot with reindeer that i have been able to find this year are really tiny - so here is one that you can make AS BIG AS YOU LIKE!
I hope you like her : )

I'm getting better!
OK I can see that I’m still making some mistakes - and clearly I can’t do faces yet, but awwwand the next one will be even better.

I'll have lots of time to practice after last night's riding lesson - wide horses do not agree with me : (

wee tug boat!


I’ve just finished making my first EVER digital stamp! There has been a lot of nauticality this last month, things being made and coveted. I got the idea of making some kind of sea-sidey doorstop for a friend (for which this stamp would be the template) who’s decorating her brand new downstairs bathroom all blue and white stripes. I realise that there is limited wisdom in making a doorstop for a room with a lock on the door that you want to keep closed, so I’m thinking again! Maybe a little mosaic picture (mother’s hobby not mine), or a little mobile? A window transfer? – Perhaps ill still make the ‘doorstop’ but make it smaller and stuff it with lavender for the windowsill? Not sure at all.
I know my digital stamp is a bit rubbish – but if anyone likes it please use it for anything and everything you like! Hopefully the next one will be better – I need to figure out how to make my edges smooth next – I’m using inkscape, not just because the logo’s cute and its free (honest) – does anyone know of a good online tutorial?
