It's been a wonderful holiday break and have been quite spoiled having my darling hubby at home with me for the past week or so. We've been enjoying several things together, such as morning teatime, blogging, reading creative articles and strolling the streets of downtown picking up our favorite tea and cakes. Alas, he'll be returning to work on Monday and I'll be making my way back upstairs to illustrate away in the studio. Life can be so incredibly busy anymore so it has meant a lot having the extra time over the break to be with Mr. Toast as well as some good quality time with the kids.
With that said, let me share with you a final peek at the hand-painted mini tea-themed custom calendars that are already on their way to my lovely customers. I enjoyed designing these and am considering offering digital ones in my shop. (Like I don't have enough work to do already! hee hee)
Wishing everyone a fabulous New Year. May all of your creative dreams come true! Happy SS!
