A poem about insomnia, the passing of time and motherhood

Sugar seed baiters!
Another prop from @acaseforbooks latest novel ‘Alice with a why’
3 passes on the press for the front image and many more swear words trying to get the type to curve nicely like the lines 🫠 a little bit of masking off for each one on the 3rd layer.
My colleague @dunn_roaming is a superstar and cut these brass strips to 0.918 for me and anneals them at the school of jewellery university campus so I can bend them with ease.

Papers for Fox. Without them, you can’t be let through.
When my wonderfully talented oldest pal @acaseforbooks wrote a sequel to Alice in Wonderland, I was eager to make some real life props from it - I mean, what a dreamy genre!
I was even more delighted to find the typeface I’d decided I was going to use was in the Mrs Beetons cookbook from 1913 when I was doing a bit of research.
For any Alice fans - you’ll love this novel, it’s beautifully absurd and nonsensical. OUT NOW!

Back at it. it’s been a couple of years since I made a winter print after some back to back maternity leave, and there was a point where I swore to myself I’d never attempt something like this again. But when it’s all locked up I quickly forgot that. Home made bent brass rules for the win again thank to help at @soj_bcu
Wishing you all a wonderful mid winter!

Edible Christmas gifts, but extra ✨
Made using homemade annealed brass rules, bent around my bike light for the curves and a lino print for the centre infill.
Inspired to make this after attending an @annieatkins workshop this summer on props for film, so thank you. And as always, inspired by the artistic printers of the 19th century, and, packaging from a patisserie I visited in France this year.
I had to learn to make chocolate filled truffles for this one - Maple and pecan praline and salted caramel

@barnabykent makes some incredible chipotle from home grown chillies and I make the labels for it.

I’ll be selling hand printed letterpress goods @thejointworks as part of the @bhamdsgn Christmas market on Friday 15th November. It starts at 5pm! Joining me will be my 2 year old, keeper of the money box.

Moses, our forever puppy, the dog that made all my childhood dreams come true.
There’s a deep sadness in my heart at his loss, the house is too quiet and just doesn’t feel right without him pottering around and at my ankles. He brought us joy every day for 5.5 years, he was the most gentle uncle Moses to our girls and the worlds top snuggler. Moses, there are so many more crumbs around this house without you around.

This is an ode to Moses, a book with all the names we used to call him.

My daughter and I will be heading to our local library on Saturday morning to plant these bookmarks for the #libraryartdrop
Our bancrupt council would like to close 25 of our 35 community libraries 👎🏼
This bookmark was inspired by our newly purchased bike trailer, now that Coco can sit up independently, this is the summer freedom I have longed for! As it turns out, it is not as waterproof as I first thought. Sorry kids.
