The prints are all made using acrylic paint and the fabric ones have been heat sealed. There is a standard size pack (images less than 5"x 3") and a pack of larger images (over 5" x 3"). They may be purchased in my website shop: fabric here and paper here.
I can produce a customised version of any of my products which you may want for a special occasion. Examples of previous commissions can be seen here. Email me to discuss your ideas.
Following a customer request I have added my new collage design, "Girls just wanna have fun" to my greeting card range. It may be seen here and purchased here. The 10" x 8" mounted collage of this design may be purchased here.

I continue to add to my range of Greetings Cards and have retired some designs.  My current range can be purchased online here. I am selling the retired designs in mixed packs of 20 for just £10! They may be purchased here, at the bottom of the page.

I have two more large bags of rubber stamps mounted on wooden blocks available free to any UK based crafter who can use them. Contact me and we can make arrangements for their handover. I will have free bags for Chicago area contacts later in the year.

I have an ongoing requirement for new or used envelopes. All sizes are welcome and any quantities will be gratefully received. I can also use any hard back books including atlases or maps and fabrics including bed sheets that you are able to donate. I can also use in my printing any papers or card such as calendars, unused paper pads, coffee table books, magazines made from heavy weight paper,  unembossed wallpapers etc. Thanks to Carole, Jane and Gallery 23 for their latest contributions.

We have had a mild but wet winter in the UK and my garden is well into the spring now. At present I have good showings of Camellias and my Rhododendrons have started flowering and they can be seen here.
If you have any questions on any of these matters feel free to contact me.
