Life Update, An Inspiring Idea (And a Tiny Bit of New Art)

The words of the image titel are lace storybook style in the middle of a whimsical drawing in watercolour of an autumnal clearing, complete with red squirrel.
Sticker available at Redbubble


Hello there

With huge apologies, I'm back, though still playing catch-up. Having been struck by a lurgie (including loss of voice-so no videos either) last week, there's not nearly so much to show you as normal.

However, I wanted to stop by and show you this cute little design that started life as an art journalling entry and with which you can craft (without any words, just the art and your own ideas) here.

The art journaling piece though, came about when I started to cheer myself up after the said lurgie, and to stop myself scrolling through endless social media displays of people's "fairy-tale" lives. 


And then came a more inspiring idea...

Soon enough, I shook myself, and remembered that no-one's life is a complete fairy-tale from start to finish. And then, from somewhere, an altogether more cheerful thought crept in as a result,

"Remember that for 
someone, somewhere, 
there is already a part of 
your life that seems like 
a fairy tale..."

And it's that thought which is illustrated in the sticker above (and other goodies, if you click on the link).

I'm going to leave it there for today, as am still getting back into gear, as it were.

But thank you so much for being here, and there *will* be,

More soon.

Hello there, and hope you're doing well and thriving.

And an extra- special welcome if you're one of the many new people who've found out about BoundingSquirrel recently-I really appreciate your having taken the time to subscribe, and to read this.

In what's becoming a bit of a tradition, this fine Friday brings another free illustration for you to use in your projects, in the shape of the cute choccies featured above. Most ways you might want to use it as an individual,  crafter or small-business person are fine (take a peek at the my angel policy for details). 

Yes, they're obviously great for anything with an upcoming Valentine's or romantic theme. But what self-respecting chocolate-love wouldn't enjoy this illustration year round?

There's also a matching physical sticker with all sorts of uses (cards, presents, adding to a letter or card to cheer someone up, personalising your laptop, using it in your chocolate emporium (!)...the list goes on...)

Finally...

Finally, as am writing this in the run-up to Valentine's Day, if that happens to be the event that's brought you here, then my previous posts about this free teddy and hearts background, and Valentine Ecard, might also be useful.

Hope all this helps you in some day-brightening way in any event.

Have a lovely weekend, and more soon.
