Teacups

9.26.2011

This weekend was mostly gloomy as far as the weather goes. I was fairly productive really productive (I made so many teacup related things).. drawing teacups, carving stamps for printing, updating my Etsy Shop with some new prints, totes and notebooks, playing with Boo, dreaming up new ideas and whatnot.

I think I'm going through something of a teacup phase. It must have started last week when I went for a cup of tea instead of my regular coffee. I like tea. Especially when it's served in a fancy teacup.

I'm also going through a sketchbook phase. I am really bad at keeping up with sketchbooks. I use 1 or 2 pages and than forget about it. I really love the idea of filling one with all of my thoughts and drawings, it's just really hard to do!

Do any of you keep a sketchbook? Do you share your drawings on your blog? I'd love to see!

    I have been looking for the perfect sketchbook and can't find one. I love to doodle and sometime I really like my doodles, so I'd like to be able to keep them somewhere. Love your teacup drawings. :)

    i haven't kept a sketchbook since highschool, but before then it was an every day thing. i'm pretty sure art school sucked the ambition out of me haha.
    cute teacups!!!

    You're stamps are amazing! When I was growing up my parents ALWAYS set the tea tray at 4pm with the fancy teapot, cups, saucers, milk jug & side plates with cookies for afternoon tea. (we come from British heritage). They would defo not be proud of my green tea in a coffee mug drinking ways. haha.

    Hi, oh what lovely teacups!
    I use sketchbooks a lot, the best way that I find to use them (at this moment of my life) is having it always open while I'm at my desk, I ending use it to everything, like little notes, little doodles and drawings. Oh and if try carry it with you I might be handy some time.
    (I might have some drawings in my blog, I've been drawing a lot, but being a bit shy about showing them, also in my deviantart gallery I have more, but they are older drawings) But I really enjoys watch others sketchbooks and drawings, it's very funny.

    I sketch in sketch books. I take mine everywhere I go. I love sketchbooks!!
    My favorite sketchbook is the visual journal with watercolor paper by Strathmore. The paper is so sturdy and the design simple.

    I post a sketch every Sunday. You can check out my art here:

    Why are you so awesome?!?!?! Your teacups are pretty awesome too! I literally jus finished a big fat mug of tea when I read your blog. Love the stamps, they look great.

    I should share a sketch of mine on my blog, haha... I failed art at school, my poor art teacher :) Oh wait, I did share my doodles from class one day because class had been so boring. I believe that counts!

    I love teacups! I recently got my family china back complete with a tea set and I've been dying to host afternoon tea! Except that...well....I don't really like tea. But I still want to have a fancy tea party!

    Oh my gosh I love this especially the stamps! My grandma was English and had a large collection of antique teacups. When she died I inherited her collection and try to find new ones whenever I can. They are beautiful!

    Okay.. we are soul mates I think.. I love fancy tea cups and I love only filling up 2 pages of a sketchbook and or journal..BAHHH! I don't like that about myself actually.. I do draw sometimes, but I'm super self conscious about my work cause most of the time it just stinks..lol But your stuff rocks my retinas! AMAZING WORK!!
