Highland Cow Prints

 
Harvey the Highland Cow is now available as a print!
 
 
£15
Available Here

Harvey was originally made using wet felting and needle felting techniques. Over the past year I have had many of my felt pictures printed as cards, notebooks and a 2013 calendar and I have now branched out into having some single images made available as prints.

The quality of the print shows the fibres and stitch in great detail so that it is hard to tell if it's a print or an actual original felt picture.

Image measures 19x21cm and comes with a quality mount measuring 31x33cm. The mount colour is 'Hayseed' and has an attractive little border scored around the aperture. Print is initialled and dated.

Your print will come wrapped in cellophane for protection and well wrapped in bubble wrap and extra cardboard for a safe delivery.

All my art is handmade in Scotland and I use a professional Scottish print company to do my printing for me.

Art Tokens and Other News

The lovely people at ArtTokens.co.uk are working very hard to promote their new site.
Art Tokens are like Book Tokens, but for art!
Go and check out the site and sign up if you are an artist or designer/maker looking for more outlets for your work. (You can also play 'spot the sheep' on the front page!)
ArtTokens.co.uk


Talking of sheep I am working as hard and as fast as I can to produce more pendants for both my online shops as well as some of my outlets here in Scotland.




One of the sites I use to sell online has undergone a massive overhaul and is looking fantastic.
You can visit my shop at Folksy.com here and see how snazzy it is looking. 
Among other new listings are a set of ten printed cards including two new designs.




The cards are selling for £2.50 each or five for £10. When you buy ten, however, you save a bit more by getting them for £19.50. I have had customers telling me they look great framed and others giving the set as a gift.


On a completely different note, I found this map of the world the other day and was showing it to my children. I found myself saying, "Oh, I've sent one of my pieces to that state and that state and that state" so I thought it would be fun to trawl through my Etsy sales and put a dot in each state that I have sent things too. Wow!




It has certainly improved our geography of America. Now we need to find a map of the world!
