Lack of sleep and a whirlwind of a week have left me feeling exhausted and a bit miserable. Tea and cupcakes would definitely cheer me up. Especially in these colours, to counteract the grey sky.
I have a serious love for all things Rob Ryan... It started with a card I bought M about 2 years ago, and the love has continued. Little S has a Rob Ryan print in his room, and I'm hoping that my birthday (or valentines??) might bring with it a little papercut gift..
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend, I'm off to the country (home!) for a few days so will be back with posts at the end of next week.
Last weekend we had a fabulous time at the seaside. The snow had left Brighton (but we saw plenty from the train) and in it's place were grey skies and misty rain. The type of weather that is only perfect at the seaside..

I just want to add a quick note here about Haiti. As the days roll on, the true scale of the devastation in Haiti is becoming clear. I don't need to write about it as I'm sure you all watch the news and read the papers. I would like to link to an article from The Guardian though, in a sign of the times it's a tweet history of Haitian write Richard Morse. I read it over the weekend and it's simple and powerful, the tale of a place falling apart in 140 characters. It makes you realize how lucky you are, purely because of geography. Read it, please.
My heart goes out to each and every person in Haiti, or with loved ones there.

I'm an English girl with a love for all things visually exciting. I love to glue, cut, sew, photograph, write, draw and make. I love sunshine and rainy days in bed. I love being silly with my new husband and holding hands. And enjoying the littlest addition to our family!
