A hint of summer vibrance brought back down to earth with with a deep navy. This colour combo is the definition of striking and choosing a navy instead of black keeps it classy. Hope it inspires!
little mini
A bit slow off the mark but here’s my next guest recipe post over at the lovely Aspiring Kennedy. This time you can have a go at making mini cheesecakes because desserts look so much more appealing in miniature. Or is that just me? Find the full recipe here and there isn’t even any baking involved so there’s no room for over-enthusiastic ovens to ruin this treat. a winter wedding
Hello friends! Happy New Year to you all! To start 2014 I thought I'd share with you one of my ongoing projects from 2013. This lovely couple commissioned me to design the whole stationery shabang for their winter wedding, straddled in between Christmas and New Year. Yes you heard right! While everyone was winding down into post Christmas lethargy and nursing their swollen bellies, this couple was skipping down the aisle. 
This was a lovely project to work on, one of my faves in fact. The brief was loose but I loved their enthusiasm for simplicity. Black print and recycled board runs all the way through and works really well for this winter wedding. I also loved their idea to have a staggered invitation booklet and sweet personal touches like the recipe card with the RSVP.
so that was december...
From right to left...*One 'Freelance Friday' started with a brutal scalpel injury and was followed with a visit to a walk in clinic and lots and lots of waiting around. Needless to say that was not a fruitful day of work! Never fear!...Santa Claus popped some nail glue in my stocking.
* We had such a lovely Christmas back in that place we used to call home. I scored big time with Christmas gifts this year. Not a questionable gift in sight, just pure pressie gold!
* A very happy December Sunday, when my friend Camille was baptised, cheered on by the TW family.
* Trinity West's first public carol service. I did a bit of decoration which mainly involved instructing big strong boys up ladders in the art of hanging giant baubles. A highlight was the kid's chance to get involved in a song, aided by the beautiful sound of clashing percussion instruments.
*Our second London Christmas has been and gone and I'm sure London is the best place to be in the run up to all the festivities. Unless you don't like crowds that is.
Well Happy New Year to you all! Hoping the year has lots of great things in store for you. I spent the last day of the year working on a bit of a blog overhaul so I'm looking forward to getting that up and running in 2014!
Merry Christmas

Why are we celebrating? Do we ever really stop to think for long? Today we celebrate God breaking into this troubled world with a plan to save us from ourselves. He stepped into human history; a real living, breathing, feeling man, destined to live the perfect life we couldn't and pay the price we should have. What an amazing truth to celebrate! Have a very Merry Christmas however you're spending it and I'll leave you with some words from my little bro who puts all this far more eloquently than I'm capable of.
