LOVE

Happy Tuesday everyone, today we are pleased to announce that our LOVE cards are now available to buy in our online shop. The cards are 150mm square & have been professionally printed on to the popular GF Smith board (300gsm Accent Callisto soft white). Each card is decorated on both front & back with soft blue tonal accents on page 2 & 3 (the inside has been left blank for your own personal message). The design is perfectly complimented by a Manilla envelope.

Here are a few quick Instagram images. The cards are priced at just £2.50 & are perfect for various occasions such as weddings & anniversaries.

Inspirational window displays...

Good morning everyone & happy Monday!

One of the many great things about living in Leeds... the beautifully designed shop windows! Every season there is new set of inspiring displays to gawp at & around Valentine's Day they were especially fantastic! A couple of them have a vintage vibe showing that vintage is still ruling the trends for 2012! And of course lots and lots of hearts were used, with beautiful reds and pinks to make them pop! My favourites include the Clark's, Thornton's and Clinton's displays, you can't go wrong with vintage bicycles, birdcages and typewriters. I also especially love the HUGE cupcake display in Louis Vuitton! Yum! Pictures were also taken from Debenhams, Diesel; FCUK, Dr Martens, River Island, Monsoon, Louis Vuitton, Thomas Sabo and Paperchase.

Enjoy! Kelly :)

Love!

Happy Friday everyone! With Valentine's Day fast approaching I thought I'd showcase another lovely selection of design work from our many surface pattern e-course students. These particular pieces are from the Tigerprint design competition called 'What is Love'.

This particular collection are from module 1 of the The Art & Business of Surface Pattern Design.

Tigerprint run fantastic design competitions every month, you can follow their Facebook page here.

Valentine's Range for Marks & Spencer

Apologies that the 'Wedding Wednesday' theme has been postponed for a little while. It's been rather hectic at the #surfacepatternecourse HQ & with licensing & running my own label it's all gone a bit mad! I LOVE the unknown & the craziness of it all. I wouldn't have it any other way...:)

Still on the theme of 'love' I'd like to share with you a selection of snapshots that showcase my pattern on a Valentine's range for Marks & Spencer. It's such a great feeling when you see your designs in the shops! (I have been known to watch over people when they buy my work, I stand there grinning...people must I'm a very strange)

I designed the surface pattern & this Valentine's card for the talented Tigerprint studio & much to my surprise my pattern swatch was used across their whole range of gift bags.

Thank you Tigerprint!
