Bunny Workshop

I'm pretty excited to say I'll be a part of an amazing group of artists for Market Collective's 6th Anniversary this Sept 5 to 7th.

This market was the start of my journey to pursue my love for crafting. Pushing my creative bounds in my illustrations, which also evolved my desire to learn to knit and crochet all on my own. I love it.

Be inspired like I did. Visit Market Collective in the East Village Sept 5 - 7. You can check out the list of artists here.

And extra bonus points if you join the bike scavenger hunt!

You heard right! It's not a food truck, but a mobile truck showcasing handcrafted work from passionate artisans. An Indiegogo campaign is alive and kicking to raise funds to get it going and it would be great to get the support or share it with others. Here's the campaign link.

I'm pleased to say I'll be participating in this amazing adventure. I feel so humbled and excited to join in the journey and here is a sample of other amazing artisans participating in this new venture.

Maple and Oak Designs, CA Jewellery Design, Anne Tranholm and Piggy & Bear

Lots of things are happening, so when I get more news, I'll be sharing like crazy. 

Love hand crafted goods. Shop local.

I know it looks like I was completely off radar on my blog, but I needed the post holiday break to relax and enjoy time with family and friends. I'm ready to get back into things and I'm so happy to announce a new location will be stocking my merchandise.

A selection of my block printed cards are now being stocked at Willow & Whimsy. A gorgeous floral shop and ethical gift boutique in the Bridgeland community.

I know the location because my day job used to get our coffee from the 'A Taste of Italy' for office expresso machine, so it was so good to see the space transformed into a beautiful new floral boutique.

The selection of ethical flowers at Willow & Whimsy is beautiful and I know I'll be going back to get one of their tea cup plants. They are stunning and will look great in my small condo. Mind you I wouldn't mind visiting just to see their adorable cat, Issy. So, go check out their shop. They have an online shop as well, if you need any gifts. 

I'm so humbled to do what I love and to be able to have people in my local community being so supportive. I'm in the midst of working on a new line of greeting cards and brand new products that I hope you'll enjoy. I'll have more at Willow & Whimsy in the near future, which I'll keep everyone posted about. 

Follow us and support local shops.

Yup, I've been learning to crochet and my first attempt are some cute coozies. I love how it's turned out and I'll be introducing them this Saturday, September 28 at Mercer Collective in Edmonton. There will be some other beautifully crocheted and knit accessories. 

I have good news! It's been in the works and I can now finally say some of my work is now at The Uncommons in Calgary. I adore this shop that caters to well designed goodies from State bicycles to local clothing from the likes of Camp and Slzy Apparel.

Tattly had a two year anniversary sale over the weekend and I couldn't resist. I bought some tattoo sets not for myself, but for my cousin's kids who are just going to love them. Thank you Tattly for all the designy temporary tattoos!!

If I wasn't signed up as a vendor at Market Collective, I'd be going to this DIY workshop. Love terrariums and the amazing Kyle Chow from PLANT TERRARIUMS will be the instructor.
