We were SO excited to announce that our Paperfest is being held at One Marylebone, London's premier fancy pants venue for super duper Weddings.

Eeek!

It’s My Party & I’ll Cry If I Want To

I didn't of course.

But I could easily have done 'cause I was so ruddy proud of my team and extended team of suppliers.

So I got merry instead which is infinitely better than crying although both activities leave you with a fuzzy head, feeling sorry for yourself.

Can't wait to see the official pics.

A Super Sunny Week

Doesn't the sun make everyone happy?

Well it certainly does moi.

Inky Fun Calligraphy Workshop

I hosted my first Calligraphy Workshop with the lovely Imogen Owen at Ink and Thread at the weekend.

We had a ball.

Well to be more precise we had a lot of inky fun.

Can't wait to run another in the Autumn.

Papergirls Rocked The V&A

Amen to that.

So much so they have asked us to return in October.

Tickets on sale soon xo

I Never Promised You A Rose Garden

But I did promise myself I wouldn't let another plant/ bush/ floral thing die at my hands.

As much, as you know, a huge fan of the cut flower, I am awful at keeping the darn things alive in my garden. Alas my green fingered luck has turned a sweet little corner and I, for the second year running can offer you white roses.

I literally squeal with delight when I see another little bud blossoming, in the back of my mind pondering how such a miracle occurred with little tendering - but lots of optimism - and so there goes another life lesson.

Easily pleased as my Father would've said.

Papergirls Rock the V&A

wAHHHHHHHH!

So listen, did I tell you? it's our first SELL-OUT Fabulous in Business workshop at the Victoria and Albert Museum. Yes, you heard right - in the hallowed halls of the V&A.

The week I got new trainers

And it was momentous.

I can honestly say that all the designer treats I've had in my life have not bought me as much joy as the-neon-pink-nike-pieces-of-heaven.

I know, I know - I may be *slightly* exaggerating but I had totally forgotten how exciting it is to behold shiny rubber and leather having only bought white {obvs} Converse for the last god knows how many years.

I also had a lot of fun in Manchester at GF Smith Colour in Context - more to come on that in a later post and worked on some gorgeous client wedding designs.

But the icing on the cake of a super fun glitter filled week? MY WRAPPING PAPER IS GOING INTO SELFRIDGES.
SELFRIDGES! ON OXFORD STREET.

HELL YES!*

I sold designs with though yellow-bag-holy-grail but it was as part of a collaboration so excuse me whilst I DANCE AND SING like a crazy person.

Have a super duper weekend xo

*excuse caps #sorrynotsorry

Oooh Betty

Super excited to share that we have added the fabulous Betty Ed. the lovely Charlotte to our Paperfest line up.

Whoop-de-doop! xo

Carry on Camping

After a crazy week should always be a crazy weekend.

Cue camping with the besties - my gorgeous school friends and my BFF - we have been friends since the first day at play group - all those years and still as thick as thieves.

Love xo
