Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas Everyone. 

I hope you all had a wonderful day feasting and celebrating with family and friends.

I had planned to do a post before Christmas, but had much trouble remembering my password 

(the story of my life- drives me crazy- HAHA)

Anyway, I just wanted to say a quick hello and wish you a wonderful and rich holiday season!

Also I have 25% off in my Etsy Shop currently (until December 31st) when you spend over $25 so jump online and stock up on beautiful cards and wrapping paper for all your birthdays and celebrations this upcoming year!

Much Love

LET THEM EAT CAKE

Everyone!!!

I am so thrilled to share with you (finally) my latest work.

Almost a year ago and after a big life change, I connected with Maree, Owner (and creative genius) of Little Branch and we decided to join our creative minds and create a line of cards and wrapping paper called

 "Let them eat cake"

This has been a long time dream come true for me, creating a collection of cards and wrapping paper that are whimsical, so much fun and playful!

Pop on over to the Little Branch website to have a read of our mini interview and to have a look at all the wonderful new product, why not even stock up on the funnest greeting cards ever!

Much love,

Elise Maree

I just wanted to show you what Ive been up to recently.

My lovely friend Lauren and I a few weeks back spent a day of playing and collaborating with flowers, macarons, tea and sandwiches and snapping gorgeous shots of my current product for my Etsy shop. 

I would love you to swing over (or click over to it) and have a look around!

Tell me what you think!

Do you love it and much as I do?

Honestly, Im so happy with how it all turned out!

Also- for those of you who have purchased from me in the past I am on the hunt for photographs of my work you've purchased, but in their new homes!

Send me your images please.

(elisemareetrickey@yahoo.com)

AND if you have purchased my work I'd love your feedback.

I am asking that you head on over to my Facebook page and write me a review!

Online shopping is a whole other ball game and I know reviews can be a such a helpful way for people to gain knowledge on what someones product is like!

Thank you so much!

Enjoy this change of season and stay nice and cozy!

Love Elise Maree.

Hi Everyone

I just wanted to swing by and share with you (incase you didn't know) some images from kids craft parties Ive hosted and created props and decorations for in the past.

Taya's 5th Birthday Party- Pineapple themed

Lily's 7th Mermaid and Pirate Birthday Party

For my Aunty Lise (Lisa)

As some of you may or may not know, I lost my Aunty to ovarian cancer almost a year ago 

(July 18th 2016) .

In her honour and as best as I knew how, I wanted to give back to her and all the women who are fighting against this terrible sickness.

My Aunty was a huge believer in my art and creativity and I am thrilled to be able to honour her beautiful life through a sentimental piece of art. 

I created this piece in memory of her and it is my hope that from selling this piece in a silent auction that there would be a generous amount donated to furthering research for a cure.

If you are interested in purchasing this piece it will be up for silent auction at her rainbow day celebration on July 18th. Please email me if you wish to bid on this from a far!

(elisemareetrickey@yahoo.com)

The finishing piece will also be framed.

Much Love

Just a little hello

Just a little hello to you all!

I know Im not as present on here as I once was and I'd really like that to change.

If Im honest, it's not cause I don't have enough time or anything like that, 

its actually cause I am notorious for forgetting my passwords and each and every time I have to create a new one as so this vicious cycle begins again! (insert frustrated face here)

Anyways- I plan on posting here more regularly, but for daily (almost) updates follow along on my instagram account. 

@elisemareefehr
