Stationery Fetish Fulfilled

Alison Hardcastle Goodies

I love working with other creative people and in my web persona I’ve been really lucky over the past 15 years to work with some really amazingly talented people. One such person is the designer and illustrator Alison Hardcastle. I’m a huge fan of her work and had the pleasure of building her website many moons ago.

She got in touch recently with a few website amends that needed to be done before she attended Pulse, a trade show she does every year. I over estimated how long the work would take to complete and when it came to invoicing for my time, I just asked whether she’d be happy to send me some of her work instead of paying me. She was delighted to do so and a week or so later a couple of beautifully wrapped packages arrived in the post.

Beautifully packaged. #alisonhardcastle

I was in stationery heaven!

Thanks Alison for some amazing gifts. I already have my planner up on the wall and I can’t wait to get some of the cards window mounted and framed to hang on the wall outside my studio.
