Guess what??

I won the BrisStyle re-usable tote bag design competition!!

Can you believe it? I can't! I'm so excited and amazed especially considering the other gorgeous designs by Sharon, Sally and Patricia. There were 126 votes cast and the end results were quite close but I managed to sneak in!! A big thank you goes from me to you if you like my design.

I think the bags might be getting printed in purple....ooooohhhhh, nice and they'll be available at the BIDM for $10.


Also....for anyone in Brisbane or anywhere for that matter (it's a nice time of year for a holiday in Brisbane if you live far away) please do come and say hello at the BrisStyle Indie Designers Market. It's a fantastic market with so many talented artists and crafters, not to mention cupcakes to die for!

If you want to check out who'll be there and what sort of things will be available you can check out the BrisStyle Blog where I'll be posting an update of everyones market prep right up to the big day! Check out this weeks thread here.
