Friday

Nothing like big chunky letters with a big chunky message.

Tis the Season... it is springing up so fast on us. I feel like just yesterday we were

sweating our butts off in the hot summer sun. But, this is one of my favorite times of the

year. I love decorating the house and spending time thinking up the perfect gift... And

than we get to wrap the gift, which is yet another creative outlet for all of you

creative folks. Here are some simple and cute ideas I found around the web.

I just recently finished a really fun project.

I illustrated a bridal bouquet, and then designed bridal stationary with the bride's

new name. What a great wedding gift idea!

The most adorable wall paper.

Had to share.

This week's illustration inspiration features the incredibly inspiring work of illustrator,

Molly Idle. Molly uses exclusively colored pencils in her brilliant work and look at the

beautiful, creamy outcome. There is a subtle texture in her work, which I think adds a

nice amount of 'jitter' {I think it is nice to have a little jitter in children's books, it

compliments a child's mind - anything too smooth and formal feels out of place}

The composition on the T-Rex illustration is fantastic. The tail frames the situation

wonderfully. And aren't you all ready in love with that adoring little ballerina?

So many things to love about the art of Molly Idle.

Thanks for the inspiration Molly! {xo}
