This week's been all about getting my new Etsy shop (Free Spirit Designs Print And Paper) stocked up. Although i'm using my fabric collections as the basis for my printable paper designs, i've been making alterations and additions along the way to make sure they work well in this new medium so its been quite time consuming... i'm pretty much up to date with my design back catalogue now though - phew!
*BTW*Any Etsy regulars who like the look of my new craft papers, it would be lovely if you could drop by my FSD Print and Paper shop and sprinkle a few hearts around... its feeling a bit like the new kid at school at the moment... :) thank you! xxx
Gardener's World Printable Craft Paper
This set of twelve gardening themed papers is available for instant download for £3.50. I've stuck pretty closely to the designs i used for my fabrics, although there is a new addition to round the collection up to twelve...
This mixed veg design featuring carrots, beetroot and runner beans is now also now part of my 'Gardener's World' fabric collection which you will find for sale over at my Spoonflower shop (here's a pic of the sample swatches i got recently, i have to say i'm really happy with how lovely they look in 'real life' :))
Black Cats Printable Craft Papers
Next came the cats. I decided to split them into two collections, starting with this set of six black cat designs (available for instant download for £2.50).
If you're a regular visitor to my blog you may notice that the new arrival in this collection is the mum and cheeky kitten design...
I hope you like it!
Colourful Cats Craft Papers
Next came the 'colourful cats', a collection of patterns featuring curly tailed cats, paw prints and love hearts. The palette is five bright colours - pink, green, yellow, purple and blue.
I came up with three new designs to complete this collection for paper - two stripy paw print ones which i thought would work equally well as a background for scrapbooking or cut into strips for things like borders in card making...
...and this diagonal design which i thought was fun!
This collection of twelve papers is available for instant download for £3.50 from my Etsy shop (If you are interested in any of my cat designs as fabric, you will find them for sale over at my Spoonflower shop).
As always, i look forward to hearing your thoughts on this week's creations in the comments!
Time is such a valuable commodity, i really appreciate you using some of your precious moments to engage with what is going on in my creative corner :)
Have a wonderful week all, and don't forget to drop by Handmade Harbour to check out this week's fabulous crafting adventures!
I will leave you with this cheeky chappy i spotted having a crafty snack from the bird feeder... such ingenuity means he definitely deserves the title 'crafty'!
