Erin in the spot light!

I got my copy of "Teddy bear Times" in the post yesterday and I was happy to see one of my creations in there!

It is Erin my old style elephant you can see on page 44! Thank you so much Dawn for including her in the magazine!

Maybe today....

I just want to make a quick note that there will be a new clown bear available as soon as I can get a photo off him.
I am really pleased with him and I hope you will like him too!

I am so happy she went to the final and I hope you like her!

Happy news!

I am so pleased to announce that I have been short listed in category 9 of the 2010 British Bear Artist Awards - the final judging will be carried out at the British Bear Fair in December.

As soon as I am allowed I will put a photo of my entry here.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Hello!

Please meet Hanna my latest bear!






She is made off a lovely Schulte mohair. Her best friend is Jack the crow that is sitting on her arm. He can fly away anytime as he is easy to remove.
I was in a Halloween mood creating her and I hope you like her as much as I did making her! Hanna is a bit more orange in the fur then in the photos.

I wish you a wonderful Sunday!

Miss C

It is my oldest daugthers birthday tomorrow. Miss C is turning 15!!!
I can´t believe it, the time since she was born has passed so quickly. It feels like yesterday we took her to the swings, she learned how to ride her bike and she played with her little dolls.
Time is flying so fast and now and again I just want to slow it down just a tiny bit....

A BIG HAPPY BiRTHDAY MISS C, we love you!

Oh no....

It is going to be some busy months for me now. It hit me today that we are in the end of August....beginning of Septemeber...and that means, only about 4 month to Christmas!
Aaaahhhh!
I need more time, 4 month feels so little.

I have 2 shows in November to prepare for, one online and one in Sheffield, UK.
I was contacted some time ago from a company (Australia) raising money for cancer. They wondered if I would be interested in doing a charity bear for them. Yes of course, so watch out for this anybody living down under.

Then there is the Hugglets show in February next year. I will not be going over for the show now in September, I wish I was, but there is just not enough time for me to do that show too. Sorry...
So, can you see that I am going to be a busy bee until Christmas (and a bit after)!
But I love to make my bears so I don´t mind. I just hope that I will have every thing done in time! LOL

The circus is in town!

This is Neo my latest Whimsical Ellyfont! The colours are absolute wonderful, just like an old toy! I love it!






He has got a blue circel around one of his eyes, just like a clown! Neo has been shaded to look old and if you want to adopt him just send me an email.
You will find more information on my website!

Have a great day!

Already?

Has Autumn come already? Are the days getting shorter, darker and is it raining more?
Doesn´t it feel a little bit colder?
I think it does....

When I walk in the woods I can hear the changes in the birds song and the colours on the leaves from the trees are not so green, they are changing too.
The sun doesn´t shine as strong in the evenings anymore.

But please don´t get me wrong....I do like Autumn. I love all the wonderful colours in the nature, the cosiness I have on the sofa with all the candles burning when the rain is pouring down outside.

But at the same time I can´t help getting a bit down knowing it is going to be some time before spring will knock on my door again.
For now...I am going to enjoy the last of the suns warmth before it is time to say goodbye to the summer for this time.

Have a wonderful sunny day!
