Suzanna Anna

Rise Above

I don't know why it took me so long to post about Suzanna Anna beautiful Etsy shop,
I found her link after re-organizing my bookmarks and had to put things right!

The images are printed on textured layers of acrylic paint
and available to buy framed or unframed,
I love that you can create your own wall art by collecting
individual prints but, if making a decision is too hard,
there are also ready made sets for you to take home.

Please Note:

The following pictures may cause the
viewer sudden cheerfulness, delight and joy.

Enter the magical world of Limoon Land,
populated by whimsical characters and adorable little
creatures.

Happy Week-end!

A Paper Trail

It all started with this video I came across while searching Youtube for nothing in particular (as you do!) ...

This sent me on a wander, searching for pop-up books and I came across some other great finds, I was clicking away for hours and could have clicked some more if "real life", stupid things like eating and sleeping, didn't get in the way!
To keep a long story short here's a link to some pop-up books history at Ping Mag.
While searching I ended up on flick'r and
discovered Paperform, I truly recommend a visit to their site
to have a look at their amazing pop-up work.

Still on flick'r I stumbled on Crankbunny's beautiful and humorous pop-up cards, she has a shop on Etsy and a blog, where you can keep up with all her paper puppet news.

I never imagined that a cardboard cut-out could bring tears
to my eyes, I'm not ashamed to admit that In Limbo
creations did just that ... they are so touching!

Nadia Flower

Delicate, beautiful, loose and detailed.

Needless to say I love Nadia Flower illustration!
More examples of her work are available here.
Also, check out her Blog and her Myspace page.

Starlight Spotlight!

It seems this post is constantly getting bumped to Saturday,

when it happens at all that is, but that's just me, I like to keep you on your toes!

I love specimen drawings and these are quite beautiful.
The rest of A Field Journal is a little gem, happy reading!

I love purple, I love shoes ...
purple shoes therefore are just perfection!
Thanks, again, to The Sartorialist!

Desktop Inspiration

On my desktop there's a folder where I save all the
pictures and inspiring tid bits I find on the Web.
Here's a small collage of my favourites.
Some pictures are from flick'r while other
come from here and there on my web travels
and unfortunately I don't have links to
where they came from.
