Macarons

I don't know if I have mentioned this before but I love almost everything French and Macron's are no exception.  They have everything that appeals to me.....chewy, creamy, colourful little delights! They are just so pleasing on the eye and of course I just think the variety of colours are Divine!
 
I have been watching My Kitchen Rules on TVNZ with that French Chef Manu......(googling his full name right now)....Manu Feildel and he talks about these little Macaron treats a lot.


So needless to say I decided to try my hand at some Macaron Charms and I have to say they look delicious :-)


What fun I have making these and the colour options are endless!  I have now uploaded it to the Mouse Illustration Shop so if you are interested pop on by and have a look. 

Yummy! x

New Prints

I have been playing around with some new designs over the last few weeks and finally have a new range just delivered from the printer.  Since I am living in the beautiful Queenstown I thought I would embrace some Kiwiana and create some prints more aimed at the vast tourist market that this town caters for.

New Zealanders are very proud of there beautiful country so I decided to design this new range with that in mind.



Maori artwork and symbols have a huge influence in New Zealand so I decided to incorporate this into my designs.


I took inspiration from the symbolism and colours.


My new New Zealand inspired prints are all available to buy from my Felt online shop.  My other prints are still available to purchase from my website mouseillustration.com

Hope you like my new designs.  Let me know what you think :-)
