Long time no see!
(I got stage fright)
Goodness me I seem to have not posted for *checks watch* 5 months!? Ooooopsie.
Here’s what you’ve missed:
I launched a new calendar!
This is the second edition of The Big Brave Girls Club calendar, with 12 new illustrations for 2026. It’s twice the size as last year’s calendar, folding out to A3, with plenty of room for writing all of your big girl plans. AND I’ve just introduced a multi-buy deal so you can save some pennies if you’re buying calendars for your friends too.
I made some Christmas decorations!
These fellas are all laser cut, sanded, hand painted and finished with bakers twine. They were a true labour of love and I’m really very pleased with them. They’re now available online.
Sad news: Santa has already sold out.
The Holly Jolly Vending Machine!
I created 12 brand new mini print designs for Wendy, my mini print vending machine. They’re also available online, but the catch is that your print will be a surprise! Thank goodness they’re all cuties.
Fuddle! A food themed exhibition at Colours May Vary, Leeds.
I got to work on the exhibition identity, I created a new print to exhibit AND best of all I designed the packaging for our fuddle Tony’s Chocolonely chocolate bar. What a very lucky girl I am!! The exhibition is up until January, it really is delicious so please go see it.
Almost three years ago I started working on a project for Shake Shack and it’s wild to finally see it out in the world! You can see my artwork inside their new King’s Cross station restaurant.
One for the journal girlies: Martina’s Tiny Store has a new sticker book coming out, and I’m one of the featured artists! The Sticker Book Vol. 2: Whimsical World will be launching early next year and I’m so chuffed to be a small part of it.
Okay those are the headlines! I will try my very best not to disappear for so long next time.
As a big thank you for reading, here’s a little gift from me to you: 10% off everything on my shop with the code SUBSTACK10 <3
(the code expires one week from today!)
