Apologies for that!</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Well doors are starting to open in terms of freelancing opportunities, which has been so deeply encouraging. Two companies have been in contact asking to work alongside them (one of which have offices in NY & London), which is amazing. I had been sending work off for the past year and more and would either not hear anything back seeming like my work was going into some kinda 'void' or then receiving a response but only to be greeted by a 'no', I felt rather dejected. Well, the last few months things have proved to be a very different story. Firstly I have signed up with a licensing agency, who this past week were exhibiting at the Surtex Show in NYC and next week will be at the Progressive Greetings Show in London (here's hoping something will come from either one or both). Secondly, two companies who I had applied for freelance work actually got back to me with a positive response! Hoorah! So, at the moment I am trying to work on some designs for these two companies, which is very exciting and a real dream; especially with the one company who want me to work on designs to do with fashion fabric print and homeware. Wow! Good opportunities to say the least. In the meantime, here are some pics of some pieces of work I had worked on for a commission and another design for a baby grow...hope you like...Have a good day now x</div>Lizzie Beehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01186411766218666363noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1242852454690964652.post-58810610944273566222011-03-08T16:59:00.016+00:002011-03-08T17:44:10.788+00:00Weddings...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4qJdJrOnP0hzTsHp5t-sYEhD0BEh_Wi8tmIEqAwJ7AWcxuWr1fWiNwp8QO6ZoHg8yNIfpbbHge3vacV7sCkkKPW_DTtc_4E23y4YGYJhneOlTEoR9ISMLJcBHMr3rEQatHlC0O5AfRm4/s1600/CONFIRMED+-+2+-+SAVE+THE+DATE+-+1a+-+NAVY+TEXT+copy.jpg"><img style="display:block;

All for which my creative juices have been overflowing! I have uploaded some pics from the engagement shoot. It was so so cold that day, but the couple were great and so patient! It helped we stopped for a cuppa and cake in between shoots to warm ourselves up - got us ready to brace the cold for the next round. All in all the pics turned out well, and the couple were pleased (which is the most important thing). An image was then chosen to be used as part of the wedding invite. It was a single card with the image on front and the invite wording on the back, this was overlaid with parchment paper with the printed verse, then tied together with jute string. See pics.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Along side of this wedding I was working on another, which is the Save the Date design. I will eventually upload the images of the 60th Birthday surprise gifts as soon as I get them off me phone! I designed and made a table runner, serviettes, cushion cover and two cards. Was so good to be challenged with such varied projects all at once...let's hope more will come from them all. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you would like to see more images of the engagement shoot, go to the Cinnamon Toast fan page... <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Cinnamon-Toast/126571144053471">http://www.facebook.com/pages/Cinnamon-Toast/126571144053471</a></div>Lizzie Beehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01186411766218666363noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1242852454690964652.post-28587953434239614742011-01-17T14:12:00.003+00:002011-01-17T14:23:55.550+00:00Runner Up!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2j91BooiFI3qoWB6br_UPku3HOHtYo2Gd36IyI48zTo7V4B5od7O-mP-Dr-c9R8PBykjCtidnzh8_cP8lSIRfDfigDrkeu8AEHtB2yV-0IjopqC7yaPEK2inUqUSqzQ9fU0Vs0aTsgdk/s1600/Spring+flowers+%2526+spots+copy+copy.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 388px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2j91BooiFI3qoWB6br_UPku3HOHtYo2Gd36IyI48zTo7V4B5od7O-mP-Dr-c9R8PBykjCtidnzh8_cP8lSIRfDfigDrkeu8AEHtB2yV-0IjopqC7yaPEK2inUqUSqzQ9fU0Vs0aTsgdk/s400/Spring+flowers+%2526+spots+copy+copy.gif" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5563160258601779986" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Well, I received some lovely news on Friday.

I hope they were still able to accept the entries after deadline time...But if not, it was fun to get back into again.

Gosh. Well, it has been with good reason that I have neglected the blogging. I have been literally attached to my sewing machine for the last 2 months (with exception of the Christmas break) sewing up orders from the '@home' parties. The Cinnamon Toast@ Home parties went well back in the UK, orders were taken from each of the parties and the feedback has been really encouraging. Thank you to all the hosts, once again, for opening up your home to family and friends. I am so grateful for the opportunity to get my work seen and out there. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">So, having completed the orders in good time to be sent ready for Christmas, the parcels were sadly delayed (and some still are) with the snow. As beautiful as it is, it caused a great deal of mayhem. I just now pray that the remaining parcels get to their destination safely and securely. Though, sadly too late for Christmas. Well, it's lasted that little bit longer I suppose! </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I hope you all had a good Christmas and New Year. 2010 has been a year I shan't forget, an extra special year! I started the New Year in a country I love and headed off to live in a city I had always dreamt about living in, NYC! Then I come back to the UK to only leave again and live in another great city, Dublin! With the support and encouragement of friends and family, I end the year living out another dream...designing and making textiles for the home and accessories out of my very own fabric - who'd a thought it! It's not been easy to say the least, and at times I got incredibly frustrated, but perseverance prevailed and at the same time was reminded to be 'thankful' of all that has happened and will continue to happen. So, as we start the new season and year 2011, it's time to dream big! And I encourage you to dream big too. A friend once wrote me this quote when I was studying for exams, and it has always stuck with me...'you are never given a dream without the power to make it come true'. So go and live out your dream! Happy 2011 x</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">And a final thank you to all who read this and for your lovely messages of support, my family who have been an amazing support - their belief in me and encouragement and to the friends who believe, support and encourage (you know who you are)! Thank You!

Should keep me very busy for the next few weeks, then it will be time for Tour #2 (five parties in one week). I have learnt not to have expectations, even in the 3 I have already done. Each one has been so different; audience, sales and response. But it is all very much a learning curve right now - especially acknowledging the areas I love and those I don't love as much! Enjoying this experience though.</div><div><div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Not long til Christmas! I love this time of year, the lead up to Christmas and the shop windows brightly decorated with beautiful decorations, twinkling lights and colours. However, I've taken a break from Christmas and created a few new designs. I have printed the mopeds onto baby grows and the pants onto drawstring bags to make pants bags! But they would also be nice on a card too.

From designing to sewing and now to yesterday evening which was the official launch party of Cinnamon Toast. And what a great evening it was, more than I could have possibly hoped for. After working on the designs for so long and almost becoming immune to them, after many moments of frustration and 'not seeing', after many late nights of sewing and after the anxiety of what it would become, last night I was able, through other people's eyes, to stand back and appreciate it all again and acknowledge why I have taken this massive leap. The feedback has been amazing.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium; font-family: georgia; "><div style="text-align: justify;">So, I wanted to say a huge thank you to you for supporting this page, the facebook group and fan page, for the orders that have already come through and for those 7 parties I have booked in the UK and am about to tour with over the next 2 months! This journey has been incredible, and I know that this is only just the beginning! Hope you continue to enjoy what comes from Cinnamon Toast and the journey it will take.

They look amazing. Now all I have to do is get on that sewing machine...ahem. So, it's gunna be a busy couple weeks; next Thursday will be the very first Cinnamon Toast @ Home party (the actual launch party). Can't wait. Live music (from me bro <a href="http://www.facebook.com/ginoskotv">Christopher Ryman</a> & friend Amy Coonagh), plus cinnamon toast and mulled wine shall be served, games & a prize draw. I hope everyone will have fun and enjoy browsing through the designs as much as I enjoyed designing them. The following week I head back to the homeland and host two further parties in Wales & England. It's all go from here on. I have also set up a shop on Etsy too, so I will be uploading the goods very soon. LOVE IT.

I have finally completed this years Christmas card collections that will be available to order. I am currently discussing production with a printer, so all will hopefully come together very soon. It has taken longer than I thought, but I wanted to get this right. Quality as opposed to quantity - right?! So, I have 6 collections (some contain more designs than others); Berries, Christmas Eve, Doves, Tree Line, Nativity and Typography. They will be sold either individually or as packs of 8. You can choose 8 cards from one of the collections to make up a pack (either 4 X 2 designs, 2 X 4 designs or 8 X 1 design). However, the quantities can be more! I have put together a montage of the designs, with at least 2 from each collection. Hope you like. Have a great day x</div>Lizzie Beehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01186411766218666363noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1242852454690964652.post-44996928147743283712010-09-08T15:56:00.001+01:002010-09-08T16:00:15.755+01:00Design Montage<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiskQMEevdSpP5ReLPnx_I6mJf-5vKfhgtUzWyZQNICXYacxLvfZ1l6Cgk5po9D6jep4zkg677wvoB2UA6XUZxtw6KNZADo2DxE2A1sBDbROW1KBLxxQ45YyXB6F8bemI2-AAb7q9LNjLo/s1600/BLOG+MONTAGE+copy.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiskQMEevdSpP5ReLPnx_I6mJf-5vKfhgtUzWyZQNICXYacxLvfZ1l6Cgk5po9D6jep4zkg677wvoB2UA6XUZxtw6KNZADo2DxE2A1sBDbROW1KBLxxQ45YyXB6F8bemI2-AAb7q9LNjLo/s400/BLOG+MONTAGE+copy.gif" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5514557412003521746" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">I realise I have neglected Cinnamon Toast blogging of late, apologies! But it has been for a very good reason, I have been working on some new designs and planning! At the end of September / beginning of October Cinnamon Toast will officially launch. With a new website showcasing designs and offering handmade items for sale, this has been a rather busy but exciting time. I thought I would put together a montage of some of the designs I have been working on and what you can expect to see...hope you like!

These aren't quite finished just yet, as they still need some tweaks here and there, but thought you may like to have a peek anyway! The design with the underpants on I thought would work well for a belated birthday..."Oh PANTS!"

A tradition held for the new mum to be 'showered' with gifts for their first born from friends and family. In the US it's not unheard of to have a gift registry (much in the same way as a wedding registry for gifts). It just helps new parents start out, as it can be costly.

I have placed emphasis on the 12 days of Christmas and used the words to create the shape of a Christmas tree in two of the entries below. I think these would make lovely cards, and also felt that wrapping paper using the background would be nice too, so I used a mixture of the background with the fonts to fill in the stars (above)...what do you think? I am also currently working on a logo for Cinnamon Toast - the colours used in these designs might just give you a clue to the colours of 'Cinnamon Toast'!

I love bows, I love to see them adorning plain garments as an accessory...they really can make a garment! And I don't mean the BIG bows of the 80's, just petite and pretty bows on cardigans or as brooches, they are ever so feminine. And of course I mustn't forget how a bow lends itself to the excitement to the opening of a gift! So why not as wrapping paper too!!

They are very much the popular sweet thang going on right now in designs, so I thought I would have a go at incorporating them into mine. I do love afternoon tea and cakes on cake stands (I have 3 of em!) - they are a must for any good tea party or just a simple gathering of friends and family. My sister-in-law makes a good gluten free cupcake! Bring on the cupcakes... Hope you like the designs too! A Birthday card with matching wrapping paper. Have a good day now x</div>Lizzie Beehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01186411766218666363noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1242852454690964652.post-6722581666830349062010-04-21T10:07:00.008+01:002010-04-21T10:30:54.782+01:00Notelets & wrapping paper...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP3GOf952xqzt3VwmR_gZyLTdo9w4ktd6BpgIobPm2lYi8pP1Z0-0OESOehmAFYBLEJLfW2vhAdlQ5kalL3IjphE-7KwnPYF2v0iJtJFtT77NuIq9Wv4eZ20oIzjpjtIh-9qVqXqAQFtU/s1600/leafy+wrapping+paper+copy.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP3GOf952xqzt3VwmR_gZyLTdo9w4ktd6BpgIobPm2lYi8pP1Z0-0OESOehmAFYBLEJLfW2vhAdlQ5kalL3IjphE-7KwnPYF2v0iJtJFtT77NuIq9Wv4eZ20oIzjpjtIh-9qVqXqAQFtU/s400/leafy+wrapping+paper+copy.gif" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5462518356118333794" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoJNIB495NPHwZaNe0vOQMVOglsDbHiqNYZINaoUaHXtq5YDVt_UXMI2nzk8rPz1FW294I5xfdHEFNbRSKBhBrhhnKxKAS6DDlEWsy0-sBihkoXCuaejx4U-1Gm8S4_buFuRs3uXnbB7Y/s1600/Leafy+notelet.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoJNIB495NPHwZaNe0vOQMVOglsDbHiqNYZINaoUaHXtq5YDVt_UXMI2nzk8rPz1FW294I5xfdHEFNbRSKBhBrhhnKxKAS6DDlEWsy0-sBihkoXCuaejx4U-1Gm8S4_buFuRs3uXnbB7Y/s400/Leafy+notelet.gif" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5462518080957217522" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8Uh17pSxZIo32RXaUJvA4Tdi5fmi9h-GkCy-y6LKOURV_U0L8I8pGdjH6otq211NIkQMgrKg7f7TNtqOdqMVg36mgghijU6if_cnSk8YApjY94hkm8ky_-zicDc-J6Fhln8_KJsJufVk/s1600/Berry+notelet+copy.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8Uh17pSxZIo32RXaUJvA4Tdi5fmi9h-GkCy-y6LKOURV_U0L8I8pGdjH6otq211NIkQMgrKg7f7TNtqOdqMVg36mgghijU6if_cnSk8YApjY94hkm8ky_-zicDc-J6Fhln8_KJsJufVk/s400/Berry+notelet+copy.gif" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5462516367537540498" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6x_zVylOiswtvUI-V6jrBVG6D9th_wrXcvv5qYgfrkP-_oybTRTu3eh8F7rUciaxeS3hMw6CTyBIbqW26hKh0m7NpCW4LFC4KLBU6wZsY4-XrXghaRvTLUhFVuMZ_HnLHf2Ga6Ks4IQI/s1600/Butterflies+all+in+a+row+thank+you+note+copy.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6x_zVylOiswtvUI-V6jrBVG6D9th_wrXcvv5qYgfrkP-_oybTRTu3eh8F7rUciaxeS3hMw6CTyBIbqW26hKh0m7NpCW4LFC4KLBU6wZsY4-XrXghaRvTLUhFVuMZ_HnLHf2Ga6Ks4IQI/s400/Butterflies+all+in+a+row+thank+you+note+copy.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5462516187329215698" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRGyOjiQfG4Xjnt1H61zalCeiwe6CyMbUJfLMqOzjHRQqRmgL6vyYXbaXQBRd5hbwDI9fLboPrEoARooDGC_quZgrsQ7vkosEvjxRDFsvm8EvWWYUgrnLMW7Tc42B9xaPA2D1ug7XvRRE/s1600/Butterflies+all+in+a+row+copy.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRGyOjiQfG4Xjnt1H61zalCeiwe6CyMbUJfLMqOzjHRQqRmgL6vyYXbaXQBRd5hbwDI9fLboPrEoARooDGC_quZgrsQ7vkosEvjxRDFsvm8EvWWYUgrnLMW7Tc42B9xaPA2D1ug7XvRRE/s400/Butterflies+all+in+a+row+copy.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5462515488536463122" /></a><div style="text-align: justify;">Slacking in postings of late, been a busy little time. After the floating back to earth from a wonderful 3 month trip to the states, it's time to get back to it. My heart goes out to all those travellers who are stuck due to the no flight situation and are just wanting to get home, I hope you all receive good news soon. Safe travelling. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Here are some designs for notelets and wrapping paper I've been working on...what you think?</div>Lizzie Beehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01186411766218666363noreply@blogger.com0
