Back of business card

This goes with the previous post as this goes on the back of business card.
This card involves 3 common features of my work- puns and koalas and tea. I love all 3 things and I think this illustration tells the viewer a lot about who I am as an artist. The tea bag is also a Yorkshire tea tea bag tag so people have an idea that I am from Yorkshire as as a Yorkshire born person, I am very passionate about Yorkshire tea. 
 I like it when business cards have a fun design on the back as then I can put it on a pin board for inspiration. I love collecting illustrator business cards and how they show off their wonderful style and express themselves. When I went to thought bubble a few years back, I picked up loads of business cards and put my favourites on the back of my bedroom door for inspiration and followed loads of them on Instagram. I plan on going back to thought bubble hopefully maybe this year and maybe I could even have a stall one day. Have you ever been to thought bubble?

Brew-tiful

Tea based puns are a go to pun for me as a born and bred Yorkshire lass. And of course it has to be cup of Yorkshire tea. As its almost valentine's day, a few cute little love and romantic puns may be getting made by me. So maybe look forward to those. :)

Jamming out


This little jar of strawberry jam is having fun listening to music. Its a little pun illustration which I love doing. It was fun doing a pun that wasn't for a greetings card even though I love doing greetings card puns.

Santa paws is coming to town

Santa paws is who visits all the pets and animals around the world to deliver their presents.  This year i got my cat some licky lix that are turkey flavoured as she loves her daily licky lix even though she's meant to be on a diet but she's a little treat and she's done really well with her diet. 

If you have a pet, do you get them a Christmas present?

Festive cheese

A little cheese celebrating the holiday season. Cheese is a major part of a British  Christmas with the evening cheese and crackers. And then its cheese and crackers for lunch for the next week as well. And I love it. 

What is your favourite cheese? 

I like German smoked cheese, edam and cheddar the best

Cracking day

A couple of years ago I made 4 koala watercolours for Christmas so I wanted to get to that collection a little with another piece. This watercolour shows 2 koalas, all warm in patterny Christmas, pulling a big Christmas cracker. What will they get in the Christmas cracker? Hopefully a bad joke, a little paper hat that doesn't fit and a little toy. Maybe it will be the fortune telling fish...

Does your country do Christmas crackers or is it just a British thing?

Party tree

Is your tree up yet? I love walking around and seeing trees pop up in people's windows. My family always put our tree up very late considering how much I love Christmas.  I plan to get my own tree this year but don't know when I'll get one, maybe this weekend..... guess we'll see.

Festive tea

 

Happy first of December and you know means Christmas is fast approaching. I always create so many Christmas illustrations and this year is no different and I've done so many. I love Christmas and I love tea so this design is a bit of me. It is inspired by a card I made for my boyfriend for his birthday a couple of years ago. That card said "lets par-tea" with a cute little tea bag. Stay tuned for many many more Christmas illustrations.

I'm nuts about you

Last of the sainsbury's valentine's day competition entries. This one was one inspired by a painting one I did last year that I thought I'd do digitally. 
I am planning on making my pun designs into postcards or greetings card but if you want one or a few before I have officially made them to sell, message me on Facebook or Instagram and I'll make them specially for you.

Muffin compares to you

Another punny valentine's card for the sainsbury's competition. This cute little chocolate chip muffin just wants a big hug to spread the love around. 

What is your favourite flavour of muffin? 
I love a mini muffin like the ones you get in the boxes at tesco.

Theres so mushroom in my heart for you

This was originally made for a competition run by Oh deer on Instagram for sainsbury's valentine's day card collection.  Sadly I didn't win but I had loads of fun making the designs. If you have been a reader for a while, you would know I love puns so I had to make pun designs. This little fun-guy has a lot of love in his heart so can show you all the love in the world.

watercolour pun postcards

More puns illustrated in watercolours. 
-you're sew cute
-you did a grape job
-cake it easy 

Really need to buy a scanner so I can scan them in and have proper nice copies of them on a digital space. Can any one recommend a good scanner (maybe with a printer but doesn't matter either way) that is good quality but not too expensive?
