Happy World Ocean Day! We love the ocean and so do many of our makers! This fab ribbon is made from plastic recovered from the ocean and is recyclable alongside household fabrics, for every sale of the colour in cards Clare donates to the Marine Conservation Society, this penguin wrap features endangered species Galapagos Penguins and these fab Black and White and colouring books help children learn all about the ocean wildlife! As you probably know our oceans are struggling with too much plastic waste amongst many other issues and it’s animals facing extinction so it’s a great day to take some time to learn about how we can help protect it and keep it clean and safe ☺️🌊

Decided to take a little break, shutting my Etsy shop for a bit while I have a business/life/work rethink. If you want to keep up with what me and Lewis (and Steve 😼) are up to, you can request to follow my personal account ._gray - no spammers or weirdos please!!

Ttfn 👋🏻

I’m a pretty great mother, good enough at any rate. But motherhood is all consuming, it’s made me a bit rubbish at everything else…

I’ve been a rubbish friend, a lacklustre sister, a neglectful daughter, a snappy wife and a terrible employee (I’m my own boss so I’ve had a word).

Trouble is, I’m at my capacity, I haven’t got the time, energy or head space to text back, to reach out, to make an effort. Lewis gets almost all of my time, my energy, my love. I’m not complaining, I’m happy with the way I parent and I don’t want to change that, I’m just speaking some motherhood truths.

So, a virtual hug to those I’ve neglected lately, maybe one day I’ll text you back, arrange to meet and not cancel at the last minute, hold an uninterrupted conversation…

Three years ago today we got married, two years ago today we celebrated in the garden (shielding), one year ago we celebrated in the garden (still shielding) and today we drove back from out holiday early with a poorly grumpy baby, put him to bed and ate ice cream in front of the tv… maybe next year we’ll finally make it out for dinner?! 🤣

Love you Jake Gray

I’ve only got Cake Day birthday cards left in the shop! You can find a few other birthday card designs at Shelford Delicatessen and of course I still have my awesome kids colour in birthday cards in stock.

I’m absolutely bursting with new design ideas, and I’d love to get drawing and printing, but the tiny human naps on me at the moment, so I’m not going to have the chance to put pen to paper (or Apple Pencil to iPad) for quite a while!

Yesterday afternoon I had an hour and a half to myself… I chose to sit in the bath watching medical dramas on Netflix rather than do any work. I feel good about that choice 🤣

A special reminder for all the parents of tiny humans 👇🏻

There’s A LOT of social media noise once you’ve made a tiny human, you should be doing this, they should be able to do that, you shouldn’t be doing this, you need to buy this… etc etc etc. It’s pretty overwhelming. Plus gps and health visitors aren’t particularly clued up on normal baby behaviour either, so you get a lot of shoulds and shouldn’ts from them too, when what you really need to hear is, “you’re doing great.” When I was born my health visitor told my Mum at every visit, “That’s just right, we’ll done.” Why can’t they all be like that?!

I’ve learned to block out the noise, I report unhelpful advertisements for miracle sleep cures and the magic bib or high chair that will make sure your baby sleeps through the night and eats all their vegetables 🙄

I know my baby, I know what I’m doing, anyone that tries to tell me otherwise can F off!

Rant over.

Lots of you have been shopping at Shelford Delicatessen lately it seams. I’m sending more birthday and thank you cards this week. Thanks for keeping me busy Shelford shoppers 🙌🏻

🌍 Happy Earth Day 🌎

Did you know my gift wrap is fully recyclable?

Did you know my gift tags are printed onto recycled card using eco friendly vegetable inks?

Did you know my cards are all printed on FSC (forest happy) papers using vegetable ink?

Did you know my packaging is all recycled and plastic free?

Did you know that small indie businesses are leading the way in sustainable and ethical practices and big business is only just starting to catch on to the idea that saving the planet might be worthwhile?!

Shop eco, shop small, shop indie, shop local. It really will make a difference. 🌏 💚
