Nature Prints!!! I absolutely love printing these cards, you never know what you are going to get and will never get two the same! Through a process of inking up the actual plant and running it through the press, the ink transfers onto the paper. Often an impress of the plant will be left, leaving it very tactile. Most of the specimens I use are just weeds off the side of the road.
Sorting through my photos and found this one from my time at Signature Prints. One of my favourite prints, Japanese Floral by Florence Broadhurst! What a joy to print!
Tea Towels! This new Tea Towel print comes in all the best candy colours! Pink, Yellow, Green and Blue are all available. Exactly what you need for the kitchen or a great present in time for Christmas. Keep an eye out for the Apron and Tea Towel set coming soon!

After exhausting myself at Signature Prints I have finally gotten back into printing for my coursework, this is my new pattern 'dot/stripe'. You can see here the begining of my works for our Sydney show in my favourite pastel colours! I will also print these up for cushions and tea towels ready to sell before the Christmas rush!

My apologies blog friends for my lack of posts recently! I am currently in Sydney undertaking a two week internship with the amazing Signature Prints! This is where the fabulous works of print designer Florence Broadhurst are produced, and it is truly an honor to be able to visit. I will keep the blog updated with how it goes!
New 'Nature Print' cards! These are created by inking up the object, in this case a dandelion, and printing it onto the card. Not a computer in sight for these cards! Such a process means that you can never print two cards that are exactly the same, every one is unique.
The Moose & Me logo was created last year to give the products a new identity. Thanks to Jess for the wonderful logo. Have a look at www.jessmcgeachin.com
Some of you may have seen Moose & Me at the Craft Victoria Markets in Melbourne. This has been a great place to begin showing people what Moose & Me is all about. It has been very handy for people to be able to see the products up close as many of the prints have details and textures you miss from photos. Keep checking back on the blog to see when Moose & Me is next at the Craft Vic Markets!
