Carambatack

I’ve bought a print from Carambatack Design, I really love this picture!
I have it in my craft room. It’s so nice to have great art and inspirational pictures around me when I’m being creative.
She sells her artwork at Etsy and shows her pictures at flickr.
I don’t know so much about this Norwegian girl only that she creates the most beautiful artwork and from her profile at Etsy she presents her self like this: “Hi! I’m Annette, I’m 35 and I live in a small town in Norway. I’ve been doing various forms of art for the past 16 years. I love to draw, illustrate and create beautiful things.”

It’s a whimsical life

A couple of weeks ago Sweet Pea had a giveaway to celebrate that it was two years since she started to blog. The winner could pick any print that they wanted from her Etsy shop. And I won!!!! Today I received my package from Canada, and I’m so happy! Look at all the goodies I got!

This is the print I picked from her Etsy shop.
"Must have shrunk in the wash"


And I got a cute little bunny! I promise to take care of here and make her feel like home!


Look at her beautiful necklace…


and the flowers!

A bunch of cute greeting cards!

More goodies!

Shadowscapes

I really want you to discover this great artist, Stephanie Pui-Mun Law and her website Shadowscapes. She is extremely talented, I wish I could paint with watercolours as she is doing! She paints faeries, creatures, angels and much more and they are so colourful and vibrant. Take time to go through her gallery, you can sit for hours and just dream of lands beyond…
