Mollie Makes Issue 63 illustrated 8 page pull out

I recently completed work for Mollie Makes Issue 63- due out 4 Feb 2016.
The brief was to design and illustrate 8 pull out pages - 4 with affirmations/hand lettering and 4 with repeating patterns for people to either stick on their wall or create paper projects with. I had to ensure that the colour palette I chose was taken across the designs so that they worked cohesively together as a collection.
It was a really interesting and fun project to work on and I love the fact that I can see them published and use the prints myself. To buy a copy please click through to Mollie Makes.  You can see more of my work at www.melaniechadwick.com

Make your own Christmas paper chain!

Here's mini photo montage tutorial to accompany a downloadable printable Christmas paper chain worksheet you'll get when purchasing any products from the online shop Two Red Trees from the middle of November. It features some of my christmassy pattern repeats and is very easy to create - all you need are scissors and double sided sticky-tape. Simples!
