The bubblegum dance- Print

This is a new print you will find in the shop today.
The bubblegum dance

the original was made with acrylics and ink on paper.
I find her really adorabe

And a quick note : Some of you might notice the sale section I have set up on dawanda
at the moment you will only find a few items but at the next days you'll see a few more goodies
there.
Each month you will find different items on sale  this will be the monthly special and
they will have a bargain price. The sale section will change at the begining of every month

A few new ideas

I'm working on a few new ideas for the shop
A sampler stationary set

this set includes 2 of each design envelopes and stickers
I made many test prints and I desided to go with the 90gm colorlock paper
the colors look really bright and you can run this paper through your printer .
The other ide I was working on is a custom notebook
I really love these moleskine   notebooks  and I wanted make one out of my designs
the original idea was to use my gocco printer (that I haven't used for so long)
but then I found this beautifull illustration adhensive paper
I got the samples from my printer yesterday
and this is the first notebook

If you are an old fashioned girl like me  this will be very usefull for
 your little notes, phone numbers etc

and more note cards

3 more sets of note cards

Bonjour note cards with red envelopes and heart shape glossy stickers

"miss teacup" with green envelope and glossy sticker

and "Little red" with blue envelope and round stickers
Well this make such a cute collection.
You can find them in sets of 6  on Etsy
or in sets of 8 on dawanda
and remember until tommorow night all new customers have a -15% on dawanda

Note :
Someone sugested that this is a bit unfair for the old customers and I agree.
but this is something that I can control because -15% it's set from the site to all new customers
So if you'd like to have your -15% of this sale  all you have to do is just open a new account
the system will give you the discount and I don't have any problem with this
so thank you for letting me know

Auer Dult adventures !

I was organizing my holiday photos when I came across these
I was thinking to post them a bit earlier but always something came up.
Auer Dult
is one of the oldest and biggest fairs is munich ,only three times
every year .
I manage to miss every time until this one

childrens theater (i'm not sure about the play )but I loved the paintings

where all the treasures hide !
 this is the spot where they sell vintage items , rare books etc.
I actually came across some great german editions.
A rare dickens for my collection and a very old book about german films
The book is so old that instead of prints has actual fim photos glued on the pages.
(I'm going to show a few pages on a later post )

Everything handmade from baskets to pottery to food and candies
Businesses that pass from one generation to an other. Most of these
people come here for more than 20 years
(I'm a bit jealous I must admit )

the first thing you see as you enter the market


and finally carousel. It doesn't have the vintage image that comes to mind
It's all about cars but it does have some magic.
All the images on top are hand painted with several fairytales.
the artwork is amazing.As they told me this is also one of the oldest atractions here.
kids where riding these 25 years ago !!!

And as all good adventures this one must close with a sweet
Candy apfel  Yeee!
(now you wish you were here)
If you'd like some more info about this fair check out the link of the city of munich.
So from this late night post
sweet and sparkling dreams my dears
