So I have had a few hours to play with my new cutting machine … the Silhouette Cameo. Took me a while to get to grips with it but once I managed to get the blade in the right way up (don’t ask) I had some fun … ok they are pretty simple but hey it’s my first attempt …
Lee has been busily making some cool stuff with Das clay … I sourced him some cool tattoo inspired cookie cutters and we love the results so far. We are going to paint them and make some cool fridge magnets … I think they are soooooo cool!
Our Angelus acrylic paint for leather had just arrived. We ordered from Germany at a really reasonable price. I have sourced some proper vintage leather bags which are so beautiful and Lee is going to be painting some vintage inspired art on them … Maybe some big red roses or some flying hearts or swallows … Thing is will I part with them after they are finished?
Lee has taken delivery of some wonderful colours today … so bold, bright and beautiful ❤️
Definitely time to book in for some new ink don’t you think?
Feeling very excited to play with my new toy this weekend. I blame my sister for this expenditure after a little visit resulted in a big spend. All it took was her showing me the software and how easily it could translate Lee’s art onto card, paper, felt or material and cut it all out beautifully and out came the credit card! She promised me some Skype tutorials and I was sold (and it was sold to me). Some fun and unusual projects on the way …
We have had some gorgeous new cardigans in by Banned. They are super cute in red with cup cakes motifs or blue with cocktail motifs. We are selling them at just £15 each with £2.85 postage (or of you live locally you can pick up from the studio). Seriously these are a real bargain … the fabric is so soft and the sleeves are lovely and long so can be turned back! I just adore them!
Lee has been doing some really cool ink this week. This skulls and pistols tattoo is just so damn cool.
Lee is so talented. He can create amazing tattoos in whatever style the customer desires. However, this is just the sort of ink that Lee really loves to do …
