I do like Tea

While taking a break from the coursework that is currently taking over my life - it's amazing how in programme coding a little missing "," can make your life so miserable! I discovered the amazinly talented Tabitha behind Tabitha Emma, her illustrations are so beautiful and sweet I wanted to buy her whole shop!

I love her tea themed illustrations the best as I know if I looked at any of her cute cupcake illustrations I'll get hungry ;)

How pretty are these teacups? I am putting this at the top of my wishlist!

I couldn't leave without buying a thing so I bought this sweet little calendar, ONLY $1.50! Shame the other two designs sold out otherwise I would so buy all three! :)

I feel like I need some tea now, and maybe with some cakes ;)

{Dear Diary}: Awards & Cute illustrations!

I have always loved cute illustrations and when I came across Yuuco's store at Etsy, I just couldn't resist this cute series of postcards, at such affordable prices too! ($6 for 7 prints!) I received them the other day and just wanted to show them to everyone, the one with the cute cuddly bear wearing the red scarf says "you make me so happy", wouldn't it make a great present?

Also I feel so honoured to receive this wonderful award from Liz at the gorgeous blog Violet Posy:
