Competition ends 1st September!



Just to remind everyone that if you wish to be in with a chance to win a set of Fairy Wings Postcards (value £5.95) just visit my website http://www.corinnephillips.co.uk/ and sign up to my newsletter. Three lucky people's names will be drawn out of a hat on 1st September which is the closing date of the competition.


On other news, thank you to the organisers of the Home Spun Fair in Portscatcho earlier this month. My daughter and I had a fabulous time - and it was great to meet up with Viv from Hens Teeth in person. The joy of blogging that it is like meeting up with old friends even though we've only corresponded via the blog! I did actually manage to lose my husband, son and older daughter. Well - you see - I needed to go into The Sea Garden - purely to ask directions to the Fair obviously - and OK I may have been a little longer than I'd said. So when Evie and I went to where the others were supposed to be - they were nowhere to be seen! Evie and I waited for 5-10 mins and then went up to the Village Hall - but we couldn't find them anywhere. So - what to do?! - well shop of course! And of course, a cup of tea and piece of cake to stem the worry!
We did eventually find them - they had taken the blow up dinghy and rowed over to the other beach and back - and no cross words were exchanged - honestly! Amazing!

Long time - no post!




Well I am just surfacing from my first week of the school holidays. Why is the weather so crap!

I thought I ought to touch base before we go on our Summer break to Cornwall. I am hoping to visit the Home Spun Fair - and let's hope the sun does manage to break through.

I think I've mentioned that Up-Front are currently doing an Altered Book challenge (which will hopefully be on show at The Small Gallery, Hereford in November/December). So I thought I'd share the latest book I've been working on. The theme was The Sea - and - with the holiday in mind - I chose to focus on bathing belles at the Beach. Probably wishful thinking!
I've also been experimenting with making a 3D fairy. She's coming along slowly and I'll publish photos shortly.
So, for everyone who's taking part in the Home Spun fair - good luck and hopefully see you there!
