Winter Inspiration

Instead of moaning about the weather like most British people do I have put together some winter images to be inspired by! I love the colours of winter – pale blue, lilac, white, green and grey. Beautiful with a splash of contrasting red. Links to these lovely pics are at the bottom of the post!

Image sources: Collage made up of house, girl and flowers. Winter landscape, yarn, girl with red hat, deer and cold girl. Happy weekend to everyone!

Creative Inc. Book

Today I got this book in the mail, "Creative Inc." by Meg Mateo Ilasco and Joy Deangdeelert Cho. It's like a creative business start-up guide, and I've heard it's great. I will post a review after I have read it though!

Brrr!

It's so cold in London! They say it's -2 but it feels so much colder! Even snuggled up in bed underneath a duvet and a blanket I'm freezing... Weirdly enough I look forward to go to Sweden where it'll be even colder, but it's a dryer cold so it doesn't get under your skin in the same way, plus my parents house is really warm!

Never Play Cards With a Man Named Doc

I walk past these wall paintings on my way home from the tube station. Very cool, but I actually liked the bottom one more before, it was much nicer before they added all the skeleton people and I think there are too many elements in the composition now. Oh well, still eye catching and unique!

A Little Package...

came today from Asos, wohoo! I ordered some christmas gifts from their website, so handy! I hate running around in the central of London trying to find lots of different presents, being pushed or stopped by three million other people that are doing the same thing. So I've got most of my presents now online, I've just got to find a few more, but I will do that in Stockholm, much less people!

I couldn't resist ordering a little something for myself as well... so I did! I got these gorgeous rings, only £8 for all three! You can either wear them one by one, or together. I love them!

Tweet Tweet!

The wait is over, you can now follow me on Twitter! :)

The Rejected Flower

Here's a flower I made in Photoshop for a design job, it never got through to the final stage though. It is a collage made up by pink leaves from a tree.

Handmade & Bound

Today Josefine and I went to a fair called "Handmade & Bound." It's like a market where illustrators and artists sell hand made books, prints and other stuff.

I bought this lovely little book called "Birds in Hats" by Whirlygig illustration collective. Brilliant!

Perfection

One more inspirational image this Saturday, this is my favourite Tim Walker photograph, it's so magical! Hope everyone has a great weekend!
