A gift for you

Here I have a little gift for you! It's a vintage telegram, which once was a telegram to congratulate my mum & her brothers birth. I scanned this in an cleaned it up so we can all have some telegram love so you can just take it off my blog and get writing a telegram to your friends!

This wonderful design of birds and owls is a by Barbara Jones, who designed all sorts of other wonderful illustrations back in the 50's & 60's.

Also, I hope you're liking my new blog layout, I decided to go back to "draw glue glitter make" since I now have my She Draws shop, but also my freelance illustrations as Laura Figiel and this will be a great grounding for inbetween both these projects. I think it has given me some direction too as i'm a bad blogger :(

P.S I'm giving lots of goodies away with sales in my Folksy shop for very nearly reaching 300 sales. I'm just two away and I will be giving goodies away with sales upto 300 but also a few after to keep the buzz! There are some tshirt bargain too.

Laura Figiel - Designer/illustrator

I have often been asked to do some small designs and illustrators for people and more recently I have been asked to do some more exciting projects, so I thought it was time I pimped myself a bit more and get an online portfolio of my work for you all to see!

www.Laurafigiel.co.uk

My She Draws shop is filled with some of my illustrations but there is still a lot more to me and so this portfolio website should give more of a idea of what I can do.

It's still work in progress as I have lots of design work and illustrations to finish and add, but please get in touch if you are interested in any design or illustrations.

Thanks all!

Some quick questions.

Hi Folks,

Sorry for not being around too much on the ol' blog.

I've been doing lots of shop cleaning up behind the scenes and i'd love it if you could help me out with some questions to help me improve my shop even more.

Just click on the image above and it should sent you to the questionnaire.

Thanking you all!

On deck.

I wish the weather would stick to the boating kind so I can wear more of my deck shoes :)
