Lucky and Lucy Designs Launches

For anyone wondering why there has not been any posting of late-Snow Black's Dresses has not been abandoned! It's just been on hold whilst I have been working on other projects and there is only so much drawing and designing one person can do every week! There will be new posts coming soon-promise! they are all drawn out in my head and include my maggie thatcher milk snatcher outfits for if i ran the world, a post about my dream of living in a 1960s house and how I never want a slow cooker, one about living in a house like the one off Disney's "up" film, and one about fur hats (of the fake kind)...they will appear soon..promise!!


One of these projects that has distracted me is a new wedding stationery company which I have founded with my good friend Laura Simmons, (whose blog is here) Laura was my bridesmaid at my wedding back in september 2011...here we are

Our first collection is now available on etsy, please take a look....

And here is a little about us...
Lucky and Lucy is a new stationery company, with the aim of providing an alternative to very traditional, or graphics heavy wedding stationery. We love hand drawings, vintage fabrics and typewriter fonts; our first collection is of animals, so if you are looking for pink poodles wearing veils and elephants in a confetti shower, then you might have just came to the right place, let us tell you a bit about us....

Friends and founders of Lucky and Lucy, Laura Simmons and Linzi Deprez met at Art college in 2002, where together they survived endless life drawing classes and projects involving repeated drawings of kitchen and bathroom utensils. They went their separate ways to university for a few years and have now, 10 years later, decided to join forces to bring you Lucky and Lucy (which are the names of our cats) ; Laura's background is in Fine art and in art history, and her job at Lucky and Lucy is to draw, Linzi's background is in Interior Architecture, and her job is to come up with layouts for the drawings; they collectively come up with concepts (like squirrels having a picnic) and then sit for hours over endless cups of tea, deciding on the exact shade of purple for the text, or exactly how thick the outline of an elephant's foot should be.



Here are some of the designs...
