Hand Drawn Wedding Location Maps

 

I love the personalised wedding maps Ive seen all over the web so i thought id have a go at drawing my own for the wedding! Im so chuffed how they turned out as i dont class myself as a good drawer at all - my old art teacher used to hold up my drawings as examples of what not to do :(
But i just drew it a few times (try 10!) in pencil on some blank post cards and then went over the best ones in pen and then coloured them in. I scanned them on my brilliant Epson X-412 and printed them onto more blank post cards - so easy and its saved me the £20 it would have cost me to print regular maps instead :)

Cress garden - update

 

My Postcarden cress garden is going strong. Bit worried the cardboard base might rip though as it was a bit delicate when i moved it to be photographed... Probably my age old issue of over watering causing me problems again!

Postcarden

Have you seen these amazing Postcarden? Theyre so clever, its a little box postcard that opens up into a 3D 'garden'. It comes with absorbent paper and cress seeds so you can grow a proper little garden. I know youre supposed to post it to someone but i had to keep it for myself! I cant wait for my orangerie (thats what ive decided it is) to look like something out of a post apocalypse film - where plants have invaded all the buildings!

I'll post an update when the cress starts to take over...
