Our favourite shopping haunt of February will undoubtedly be ANTHROPOLOGIE. We join them on the eve of their decision to open a second UK shop plus an online european store.

Featured for February because it’s the month of LOVE we have these vintage styled Valentines postcards that look sooooo much like Alice Magazine’s Vintage Valentine’s Accordian Books…..ah well, if it’s eye candy who cares?

Latest Custom Poster Design – Maybe Myrtle Tyrtle

Kathleen Opium — Sat, 14 Nov 2009 22:39:22 +0000

I finished this poster for Maybe Myrtle Tyrtle and Trees Are Good Creations at the beginning of the week following a crazy day of computer problems and physical memory nightmares.

When you have a lot of images to produce for the printers you get to the point where you need to image dump onto DVD or CD just in order to do anything. I opened Photoshop ready to work on this and had to spend almost an entire day “dumping” and filing images into the archives. When you get busy you get lazy on your admin! And so I spent the following day working on my back catalogue – deleting all the trash.

Anyway, none of this was Maybe Myrtle Tyrtle’s fault, in fact they helped me to re-organise. And as you can see from the poster they will be playing at Newcastle Students Union on 19th November with the Monster Ceilidh Band so go and see them.

Free Vintage Beauty Blogger XML Template

Kathleen Opium — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 11:35:21 +0000

I made this template in June 2008 and it was sold as an OOAK design through my design store.

The lady who bought this has ordered a re-design and kindly donated it back to me so I am offering it as a free download.

The template is pink and grey featuring butterflies and a vintage image of a woman. You can preview it or download it from the links at the bottom but before you do know this:

* the images are currently hosted by me but won’t be forever so to avoid losing them save them to your hard drive and upload to your own hosting accounts then change the links.

* a title can be added to the header image using an imaging program such as Paint or Photoshop.

* please leave the credit link at the bottom of the template.

* any problems just email me!
