Studio update

I've been working on some custom orders for monogram initial artworks. It's nice to know they are going to lovely homes. I have added a few more of these original artworks to my shop! Custom orders are welcome!

Postcards

The postcards I ordered arrived last week! I wanted just a little something extra for my lovely Etsy and Madeit customers, so will be including one of these in all my packages along with a stamped thank you gift tag and hand written note.

Some new things

New Thank You tags made with hand carved stamps, for my lovely Etsy and Madeit customers.



And my new logo stamp. I really love it, especially when I stamp it onto textured white cardstock or kraft paper. I am a paper/stationery nerd.

My Mother's Things

I am a hoarder, my mother is a hoarder and her mother was a hoarder. As a result my parents house is filled with beautiful old knick knacks and things. Pictured are vintage wooden soldier skittles and a wooden toy dog on wheels, my Great Grandfathers cigar tins and old books, and a collection of broken shards of china and ceramics found in the backyard when gardening. I'm lucky to have such sentimental family members who hold on to these things.

New Website!

I now have my own website here www:ameliaherbertson.com
There are still lots of changes to make (once I figure out how), but there it is. I will still be updating to my blog here as usual, the website is more so I can have a central point for all my places online, but mostly so I can have my own domain on my business cards and feel important!

Shop Update! New Cards

A new card design hand printed with a block I carved last week! These are now available in the shop, I hope you like them.

Card Set - Red Heart Block Print

Hand printed with my own linocut design. Now available in the shop. I have a new greeting card design that I am printing today and will show you tomorrow!

Etsy Faves - French

Harley had a birthday last week, and I made him French inspired paper goods/flags/straws to go with dinner, cheesecake and a pancake breakfast and make it a bit more special (this was a big deal, I am a disaster in the kitchen). Here are my favourite French inspired goodies from Etsy at the moment.

Collection

Postage Stamps

A collection of postage stamps given to me by a lovely friend of mine. I know it's nerdy but I've always loved stamps. They're like miniature artworks. These ones have beautiful colours, and so much detail.
