By heather at 7:11 pm on Friday, January 20, 2012. This is your (belated) holiday card :) Hope you had a happy and safe holiday with your family and friends! Was fun making Christmas Cards out of some of Hera’s old drawings, a great way to reuse them. Hera & I glued the drawings down onto cheap holiday cards from the dollar store, then once they were dry we cut them out and did potato stamps on them. No Comments ». Feed for comments on this post.

I’m still here… sort of! By heather at 7:33 pm on Wednesday, February 6, 2013. Well I’ve definitely fallen off the social network bandwagon! Down the track I expect I’ll be able to start illustrating and blogging again, but for now, if you don’t see me posting… just assume I’m too busy enjoying my kids to do so ;) Here are some happy snaps of what I’ve been keeping busy with the last 12 months… and to officially introduce Ruby Rain Castles, born July 25, 2012.

Crafty Big Colour & Play Drawings. By heather at 1:22 am on Friday, February 10, 2012. The play aspect comes in with stickers and paper dolls. Kids love to decorate and stick (and peel, and stick, and peel) stickers, and this big play surface is fun for their imagination. Once they get unsticky, we glue them to stiff paper and cut them out and reuse them as paper dolls. This is the first one we ever did, Hera drew the first hill and the rest evolved from there!

Inspired by Dave DeVries Ugly Mermaids. By heather at 5:59 pm on Tuesday, June 7, 2011. Lately I haven’t had much time for illustrating, as being a mum of two little kids takes up all my spare time. I’m enjoying the occasional creative outlet with drawing things for my daughter to colour… mainly her riding on dragons and dinosaurs! I did manage to squeeze in this illustration… I was inspired a while back by Dave DeVries. A few months back Hera. With a Dagi Stylus and Sketchbook Pro. 7 Comments ». I’...

Review The Cutest Face. By heather at 8:42 pm on Thursday, December 9, 2010. I had the pleasure of receiving a copy of “ The Cutest Face. 8221; by Toronto illustrator & Author, Rebecca Zak. I grew up in the Toronto area, and the best complement I can give this book is that it truly captures the “diversity & equity” of the classroom experience I experienced then, and students still enjoy now. The book was designed by Dave Zak. 1 Comment ». Pingback by The Cutest Face Rebecca Zak. Greeting Card Design Tips.
