VIDEO: Radish the Filmstar
Well, it's been one of those days where you randomly decide to learn something new…(does anybody else have those? Just me? Ok.)
So my new skill for the day - film director and cameraman! After watching a zillion youtube videos of live drawing I decided to give it a little go myself.
So here it is, my first ever video!
It would be great to hear what you think. I have to admit it was really fun to do so who knows this could be the start of something…

Sketchy Sneaky Peek!
With the sales of our current ranges going well, and with repeat orders coming in, we thought it was about time to do what we do best - brainstorming and coming up with lots of ideas for some new ranges!
We are super chuffed with what we have come up and are delighted to tell you all that we will be showcasing our new ranges and Top Drawer Spring/Summer in January 2015 at Olympia!
Our stand is all booked, so now it is full steam ahead to get our new cards up to scratch for the New Year. Our focus is on lovely illustrations, quirky handwritten typography, beautiful card stock and a whole lot of fun! We can't wait to show you what we've come up with, but for now you'll have to make do with a sneaky peek of some photos from around the studio ...

Home & Gift Harrogate 2014
There is nothing me and Helen like more than a Rosie and Radish road trip, especially when the sun is shining, the cheesy tunes are playing and our destination is the Home & Gift trade show in the beautiful North Yorkshire town of Harrogate.
Yesterday was our first visit to Home & Gift. We wanted to not only check out the lovely cards and stationery on show, but also to see whether it was a trade show we would like to exhibit at next year. Location-wise it is perfect for us. Only one and a half hours from Newcastle, it is a leisurely drive down and a far cry from the stressful London-bound mission we had earlier this year to get to PG Live. It already had a massive brownie point from us before we even got there.
And what a lovely day we had! It was great to see so many familiar faces from PG Live and The Ladder Club and we took our time wandering around the show and chatting to everyone. It was particularly lovely to finally meet Lynn Tait of The Lynn Tait Gallery and founder of the Ladder Club who we didn't manage to see at PG Live. She really did take a shine to Radish!
There was a lovely atmosphere at the show and it really made us wish we had a stand there ourselves. It is definitely one to consider for next year. Feeling inspired, we headed off for some lunch and a brainstorming session ...
Before it all got a bit too much for Radish and we had to head home. That mouse has no stamina.

Happy 1st Birthday to us!
We can't believe it was a year ago since we decided to set up shop together ... but 365 days, lots of hard work and a trade show later here we are celebrating our first year in business! Yippee!
And what better way to celebrate than with a trip to the seaside ...
A great day out was had by all! Thank you for all your support over the past year Rosie and Radish fans ... here's to the next 365 days!

Introducing...Amanda Artworks
Well, all work and no play would make Rosie & Radish a very dull duo and this was our mantra for Progressive Greetings Live this year. We loved the social side of the show and met some truly inspiring and lovely greeting card folk!
We were very lucky to have the delightful Amanda Hemmer on the stand next door to ours. Amanda creates cards from her original artworks which are inspired by vintage films and Latin Culture. Her cards and prints are beautifully vibrant, a riot of colour and texture (seriously the pictures don't do them justice).
If you would like to see more (or make a few purchases) visit www.amandaartworks.com.
Love
