It's seems quite a while since my last post, taking a little time to get back into work after the hustle and bustle of Christmas and the New Year. It's wonderful to see some new followers too, thank you all for taking the time to visit and peruse my page! So, back to the printing and a new print for a new year. With Valentines day just around the corner, i thought it would be lovely to celebrate with a new print. I've been looking at the beautiful antique and vintage valentines cards for inspiration, but strangely enough, some of the artwork in traditional tattoo art too. It's an odd mix, but i quite like it.
Wishing everyone a very belated Happy New Year too! Amanda x

A beautiful print - I love it!
A gorgeous design, that's on the 'wish list' for sure! I can see the tradition tattoo inspiration too, I think that's a great reference! Hope you're having a great start to 2013!

fab I'de even frame the lino too ;) x
Wauw, this is beautiful! Unlike you i'm not an artist, making rubber stamps is just my hobby, and i'm often short of ideas.. I admire people who can draw their own creations, so every once in a while i pay a visit and watch and learn ;)
This is a gorgeous print. Love the lino too!
Thanks everyone, great to be back again after the Christmas break! x
It's going on my wish-list as well !
It's stunning - I don't find the inspiratiosn to be that odd a mix - tattooo designs often have a kind of "old-fashioned" vibe that ties in with the old valentine cards ! Gorgeous work.
Wow, lovely, and I am in awe of your forward planning. I am still stomping about complaining about the snow, and there you are, already thinking of valentines :-)
Hi Amanda, discovered your great blog while looking for printing inspiration to add to my mixed media paintings, I love the detail of your prints and the wonderful vintage feel they have..beautiful.
Wow I see your work for the first time and I adore it. What beautiful. My hamdcarved stamps are so simple when I see yours. Marvelous. I will follow you.
lovely greet from Holland

Wow this is a real stunner, Amanda. No idea how you can be thinking about Valentines Day but good on you! Am keeping an eye out from here in New Zealand for any news of possible workshops (not a hint!!) as I don't want to miss anything.
