WHAT HAVE I BEEN UP TO?

This week
I finished the Steampunk Nipper girls collage sheet. I made enquiries about T-Shirt printing for some of my designs. I went out for the day with my mum to Chesterfield and spent the day with Amber in Derby yesterday. I've been trying out some beads that I want to make into necklaces and bracelets and I carried on with graphics for the website. Oh I also got a few more baby clothes to try designs on and I made some little scratch mitts with a cake design on!

Weekly Round-Up

I've decided to do a weekly review of things I have been getting up to during the week. This week has been a busy week... I got myself a badge-maker! My first big investment for The Octopode Factory. I've decided to start making little baby clothes... I got a few mini t-shirts to try out in size 12-18 months (they are super cute!) and..... wait for it! I sent images off for the first pressing of real-life rubberstamps made from Octopode Images! I've also been working on some graphics for the octopode factory website ~ can't wait for it to open! Other news is Amy received her doll in the post and is in love with her, I've been asked to sponsor a couple of challenge blogs and I'm starting work on some new dolls, first will be a commission order of a cerise doll and a purple and black doll.

My week in pictures
Amy's doll
It looks like Amy likes her!

first little t-shirt which is pale yellow in size 12-18 months
(because I draw on them all the t-shirts will be original and cute of course!)

The Yellow Doll

This doll is the only one of her friends left. She's getting lonely on my shelf so i thought it was time to introduce her(she's been very excited to make her internet debut on my blog)... sooo, here is THE YELLOW DOLL.(as she is currently nameless)
She is looking forward to appearing on etsy; which will be very shortly!
