Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes.

Ilona, at I Drew This,  has started a digital blog version of one of my favourite games, Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes (the paper version is played by someone drawing a head, they then fold it so no one can see it, the next person draws a body then hides it and so on till all the body is finished. Then you can look and see what madness has been created). I was lucky enough to take part in last weeks digital game - such fun. The theme was "Red". Here is the final bonkers image. The head is created by Ilona's Dad at Geoscoperlous and the legs and feet are by Moira Milman. The body is by Moi. Fab hey : )
STOP PRESS: Ilona has just started a blog dedicated to the Head shoulder knees and toes game called Flick'n'mix, Why don't you pop over and get involved : )

007

Tomorrow is  Global James Bond Day. It's 50 years since Dr No premiered. I love all the Bond films, the glamour, exotic locations, the action, the cars and gadgets and of course Mr Bond. This is my favourite scene in all of the 22 films. Sean Connery is the coolest. Off to see Skyfall in a couple of weeks, can't wait!

The things you get roped in to do...........

..........mugs for my sons school. I used the children's drawings to create the artwork for a school mug design. I love the skipping girls and the children standing on their heads : )

Slugs and snails and puppy dogs tails

Well that's what they say boys are made of : 0 ) Here are the boys cards and wrap I designed for Jodd's cards. Copyright Jodd's cards.

Sugar and spice and all things nice

Some girls stuff I designed for Jodds recently :  )

Anna Karenina

Anna's story is told in an unusual, quirky way through the use of stages in a theatre. It's also a must for the costume, beautiful sets (look out for the petrol blue damask room, it's divine) and tragic romance. With the screenplay by Tom Stoppard and direction by Joe Wright (Atonement - I looooooooooved that film), it promises great things and for me it delivered. It's a classic made brilliantly into a film. A perfect night out with the girls and pick'n'mix.

A super dooper idea

These cards (from South Africa) are impregnated with flower seeds so you can bury your card when you have finished with it and hopefully, in time, the seeds will germinate and grow.  The card will naturally decompose, a perfect gift hey?
