Tom Ewing has a look at the DCnU as a whole

The Bloggess is amazing, and by amazing I mean probably shouldn’t be allowed out by herself

The Princess Bride cast re-united

And a gift (The tickets haven’t come yet)

And I packaged up a tiny compass and tiny birthday card using the World’s Smallest Post Office kit:

And I dressed up:

And yesterday there was a beautiful sky:

I love Gemma Correll [via]

I wonder how hard it would be to make something like this. [via]

Want

Edwyn Collins, who was one of my highlights of Bowlie 2, has created some fabric for Liberty. During his recovering from a cerebral hemorrhage he drew birds every day. via

Can I have one please? [via]

1/ Draw bunnies

2/ I’ve just enrolled at Birkbeck University to study an MA in Classical Civilisations

3/ I worked on some dolls recently and here they are all finished. Sadly they haven’t photographed well and look a bit blotchy but you get the idea.

4/ I will be at the Fox and Firkin in Lewisham from 12 on Sunday selling Pippa Alice things. I hope you can join me. I’ll have some bookmarks and a few new things

5/ I have a new doll. She’s a Maybe Phoebe Neo Blythe. She has translucent skin which is weird but also beautiful. I made her a shawl.

6/ I went to see Arrietty at the weekend. I love Studio Ghibli. <3

7/ Elephants sa Hi!

8/ I recently purchased one of these:

<

If you are a friend expect eye-hurtingly tiny letters through your doors soon.

9/ I’ve found a place that will print plastic charms with my designs on so expect some necklaces in the shop somewhen soon

10/ The ASOS Curve sale. So many pretty dresses.

11/ I have had some fun with poster paint pens on my kitchen wall. The flowers are now filled in. The mosaic has googly eyes. It’s very authenticly Roman.

12/ My Mum bought me a new old camera. I have filled it with some 120 film and will let you know if I get any nice looking pictures

Not happy with what WordPress does to it when I upload it but here is the full and proper version. (I haven’t been able to stop drawing Wonder Woman today. I haven’t a clue why.)

This one has added tip ex pen high lights!

However I just popped in to say I am also writing a new blog on feminism and pop/geek culture:

Liberation’s wasted on me

I love this angry tiger. <3 (Drawing is copyright Jack obviously!)

Please click on this link and donate some money. I can’t wait til his book comes out. (Edinburgh Hospital for sick children is a very good hospital and I deal with them occasionally during my job so I can 100% say this is a worthy cause!)

They’ve been reduced to £20 for unframed originals.

Love Pippa Alice. xxx

Click above to go to the link and download. (by right clicking/save as)

She needs brads holding her basket, arm and legs on and her hat can be glued.

And then she should look a bit like this:

You can paint the top of the brads to blend in with the skirt.

Do let me know if you make her, I’d love to see.

Best wishes

Pippa Alice

I am a tiny bit obssessed (after years of following American craft blogs) about Marshmallow Peeps. If you don’t know Peeps are an American candy, I haven’t seen one close up but they come in BUNNY version (this is the cutest version, I have a little bunny peep trinket box) and a slightly weird looking chick version. They are marshmallow and brightly coloured and covered in what I suspect is sugar. One of my dearest friends is American and I suspect she thinks I have gone mental. For a value of ‘gone’.

Anyway it seems that when one is coming up to Easter in America that there is nothing more Easter-like to do other than make crafts from Peeps or using the image of Peeps. It’s like the baby Jebus, but sugary.

Peeps Sushi (OF COURSE!!!!!!)

I think this is super cute actually.

Make had this ‘Peep’ show on their blog yesterday. I think pretty much everyone has to see this. It’s genuinely amazing. I want one for my house. I’d have it by the door to welcome visitors.
