The joys of sweet Summer days...

Another catch up post. Has it really been a month?
My daughter has completed her gcse's and has now just started her Accountancy apprenticeship... It has been a busy, full on summer for her so far. I'm so proud of her & wish her all the best in her new career. She is working for an accountancy firm just outside the city and will go to college 1 or two days a week. She's so enjoying hands on training and her own desk. She's so grown up!... I felt so teary on her first day she'll always be my little girl. π’ Happy tearsπ it's all *change* in the air this month and I get unsettled... Things will soon be in a routine and feel like the norm I guess. We had a lovely family week just before she started her apprenticeship. We visited some lovely, local National Trust homes & gardens, we walked to a peacefully hidden cove and enjoyed the coast, city shopping, local walks up on Dartmoor and being in the garden. It had been so hot so I'm glad it's cooled a little. π️ππ€️π₯️

I've already been working hard on new illustrations and junk journal creations. Follow me on Instagram for more regular updates. I'm still sorting my shop out and ordering prints. I hope to sell some original art too. πΏππΏππΏππΏIm full of ideas at the moment. And it's lovely to have more time to create. Life at the Pin Dolly studio... Full of creativity. πΏππΏππΏππΏπ±πΈπ±πΈπ±Whimsical flower girls for junk journals...
