Listening to Furniture. Check.

Hot mug of green tea. Check.

My workspace just got a little more cuter with my new bear pad warmer, a winter gift from my husband. It’s a nifty USB gadget that heats up your “mouse hand”.

The gadget really works, much to my amusement! Though I would have preferred Mr Bear to be even hotter (he’s only slightly warm). But for cuteness factor, I think he has surpassed my expectations! So bonus points for Mr Bear!

I’m so tired! I’ve just finished with all my market preparations and I’m going to sign off for the night soon! Just wanted to show you some picture of the mess I made.

Thankfully Niina came over to help me…with the monotonous task of punching gift tags! Thanks dear!

If you’re down in Perth, come check out our booth at Perth Upmarket today, 27th June. I’ll be upstairs at Winthrop Hall, UWA 10am – 4pm selling all my Little Mo stationery and goodies. Hope to see you there! xoxo

Wow talk about total handmade spirit. I carried this whole stack of paper goods home from the printer. I had to make two trips. There’s about 120 over notebooks and calendars in this stack.

Yes you heard correctly, calendars! It may be a little early (or maybe not), but I’m taking these goodies to Upmarket to sell on Sunday!

Each book is pocket sized and will fit in your handbag and shirt pocket (if you like stuffing things in your pocket). They feature my original illustrations of Little Mo and her adorable animal friends. I’m a bit obsessed with pocket sized things lately…so expect to see more mini creations soon! You can get your pocket calendars here. Enjoy!

I’ve just finished working on a custom illustration for Carmel, the owner of Golly Golly Gosh. Her new shop will stock handmade bibs, kids clothes and cute accessories.

I decided to illustrate something fun and colourful to express her kiddy brand! You can see more pictures here.

While working on Carmel’s project, I’ve realised that it would be fun to draw more commissioned portraits for families, couples or pets in my own illustration style. They can have their artwork framed or turned into unique cards to send afar.

I am also very tempted to introduce other children characters in my stationery and art range, which is something I’ve thought about for awhile but have been a bit nervous to take the leap. What do you think?

Yaay this beauty creases papers and booklets beautifully!

In the past, I’ve either had to borrow the scoring machine from my printer or use a bone folder to crease my cards, which is great for small jobs but it’s not very convenient when you need to score about 100 over cards in a hurry.

For my birthday gift, my husband asked if I wanted a heavy duty scorer or a new Wacom tablet. I opted for the paper scorer (he can get me the tablet for Christmas hehe!)

This heavy duty scorer can score documents as large as A2. All you need to do is slide the paper under the creaser and pull the lever down to imprint a crease mark on the paper. Perfecto!

Bye bye bone folder. You’ve been good to me but I think I found a new best friend.

Hello Mo friends!

We’ve just sent off a bundle of goodness to our new stockist.

If you’re a student at Edith Cowan University, you can pick up some Little Mo stationery like our greeting cards, postcards and notebooks at the ECU bookshops! Available at the Mt Lawley and Joondalup campus. Hope you enjoy!

Remember this? I’ve just finished inking my little birdies and tree print, as part of my nature series. I’ve decided to try a summer palette for this design, what do you think? I’m hoping that the marigold will come out nicely during my test print.

I think colouring foliage requires the most time for me and although this design looks simple, it actually took me awhile to ink in all the leaves and shade them.

Aside from making notebooks, I’ve been thinking about turning my nature patterns into greeting cards or postcards. Would they be too plain for cards? Any ideas?

Clockwise: Autumn Wild Berries, Summer birdy, Spring Wild Berries, Cherry Blossom.

I have Little Mo stamps now! They are adorably cute! I’ve been using them this morning for some orders.

It’s the same screenprint image from my tossing paper planes bag.

I’m in love!!! I’m actually laughing / smiling / bouncing with glee as I type this! Gah!

Picked up my new postcards from the printer and skipped back home with joy!

I am sorting through the lot now and rounding off the edges nicely.

My ‘Home’ postcard set is now available in my shop. You can get it as a single card or in a mix pack of 6. Happy mailing!
