Dundee Jamboree


Well the Dundee Jamboree mini market has passed and I sold quite a few cards and badges. There was some really great artists selling their work and the level of professionalism was impressive but somewhat intimidating. I think for the next one I'm going to have to step up with my level of presentation and packaging of items. It was also very apparent that everyone had a definate, individual style which made each stall very different. I said in an earlier post that I wanted to try and get away from my four by four drawings but now I'm thinking that I should continue with this style as its something that makes my prints a bit different from everyone elses. I think a little day of drawing is in order.

Cards



So the wee Jamoree craft fair is this Saturday and I've done all I have time to do. I've made more shrinkle badges, have just finished wrapping some cards and sliced my thumb with a scalpel.

Badges

I started making a few shrinkles ice lolly badges today. I'm really pleased with how they turned out and will definately be making more.

Dundee Jamboree...again

As I said in my previous post I spent a few hours yesterday and today hand painting some frames. I did this as a present for my friend at christmas and quite a few people said they really liked them.




I might do a few more leopard print ones in different colours but I also have an idea that incorporates the clay ice lollies I've been making.

Dundee Jamboree


Yesterday we spent the afternoon having a wee craft session in order to make things for our stall at the next Dundee Jamboree (http://dundee-jamboree.blogspot.com/).

Inspired by a recent drawing, I spent my time making wee clay ice lollies which will hopefully end up as brooches.


I've been my usual indecisive self when it came to picking a colour. Along with my wee shoes drawing from the previous post, I'd like to sell these as digital prints as well as cards. I'm working on a few more drawings in my four by four digitally coloured style and I've also been busy hand painting different patterns on wooden frames (which I'll post pictures of tomorrow).

There is a blog showing our crafting in progess which can be found here: http://tbadfcommunity.blogspot.com/
