Vintage Postcard Website Art


So I'm trying to emulate a vintage, shabby-chic look for my website and am working hard on the artwork! Latest in the mix is this vintage postcard with a description of Les Sacs Magique with pictures of the latest bags as stamps...
Not sure if this will be the final artwork but its a significant improvement to my homepage compared to the artwork which was getting on for a year old!
I'm hoping it captures the aesthetic I'm going for!
Have a nice evening, I'm off to vegetate on my couch... ;-)

Brand New Arm Candy for Spring 2010...

So my look for Spring/Summer 2010 will feature gingham check, florals (as always), bows, corsages and retro colourful prints! As well as this I'm planning to heavily emphasise on trims and texture, creating stripes and designs on my products using pick 'n' mix trimmings!
Check out my newest products...The trimming embellishment concept is fresh from a need to use some of my less exciting fabric stock and transform them into fashion forward pieces with exciting detail and quirky design features:

Really excited about the prospect of this collection and dont forget Mother's Day - March 14th 2010!

Thursday Thoughts on a Rainy Day

Well, I've been more than a little lax in the blogging department...thus far one post, which whilst interesting, doesnt really total a blog. So my non-new years resolution is to blog regularly, so long as I have something interesting to say!
Well how's that for an intro?!?
I've been working hard on new artwork to revamp my website....


Preparations have begun for my event in Florida, the Delray Affair (HUGE craft event near my parents house) and so I could commit to some solid making for this next month, I have spent biggest part of this week adding all my current stock to my online shop: http://www.les-sacs-magique.com/page2.htm ; Folksy: http://www.folksy.com/shops/lessacsmagique ; Etsy: http://sacmagique.etsy.com ; and brand new handmade gift site Wow Thankyou which is having its soft launch tomorrow: http://www.wowthankyou.co.uk

Sorry for the epic list of websites, but check out one or all for the latest Les Sacs Magique arm candy and all sorts of unique hand-made gifts for every occasion! Think Mother's Day people!

In other news, Emmerdale has been regularly featuring three of my handbags since Christmas. The character Gennie Walker has three of my handbags to compliment her lovely bright and colourful fashions...

See if you can spot them on Emmerdale, ITV weekday evenings!
