Panda Wall Art - New work! Just completed this panda illustration to send to my licensing agent in the USA. 

It has taken me about a week to complete. A mixture of Photoshop and inks. There are a lot of layers to this image. I wanted to create an image with bold, simple line, strong colour and an electric background. I think I succeeded. 4 animals in this series at least will make up this series.

Mr fox is my next animal to add to this series. I want to use animals I haven't illustrated before. Animals with simple, strong colours.
​

Above fox wall art, early stages of my illustration, I will post the finished drawing in the next few days.

If you want to see more of my artwork and personalised baby gifts drop into Gifts4Baby.ie my online gift store.
Here you can purchase my art personalised for Christenings, new babies and birthdays. 

My work will now be available at Homegoods USA. I have been creating work for art licensing more and more in the recent months. Homegoods USA will now be selling my art! Very exciting news. 5 images are to be sold in their adult range and one image is to be sold for Homegoods kids. 

My illustrated map of the world in pastel colours. Also available on here at Gifts4Baby.ie
​

To sell into the American market, I had to start thinking differently about my work. Looking at what is selling in the shops and had to tone down some of my colouring. Pale colours are in!

I reworked my world map image using very pale colours. I suppose and they are looking for an image that will suit all types of kids rooms. I really loved creating this kids map of the world and I was happy to be pushed into a different way to look at my work. 
​
I am not sure how these are selling for Homegoods as it will take a while to see the sales figures. Crossing fingers though!
​

This world map is available from Gifts4Baby.ie, persoanlised with child's name.

​E GIFT CARDS - GIFTS4BABY.IE

Now available from Gifts4Baby.ie - E Gift Cards! 

I find a lot of people call me last minute to order a gift for the next day, or, if I am lucky they might have two days. I really try to accommodate people as much as possible, but sometimes it is just impossible to turn a personalised print around in that time.

From the time you order a print, I have to process the order, personalise your print and then send it to the printers. This obviously takes time. I do prioritize express post items or any order I know is urgent, but with the introduction of my E Gift Cards the pressure is off for those urgent gifts!

Gifts4Baby E Gift Cards are created by you and sent to your loved one. You can enter in the amount, recipients email, an personalised message, your gift card is then sent to the person of your choice.

I really like the idea of this as people can now create their own gift and it can be sent to them immediately!

​

Here at Gifts4Baby.ie we are always creating new images for our Christening Gifts category. 
​

​Enjoy some religious images like our Christening Day Wall Art gift. Add child's name, Christening date, church name and priests name. Family members, like - mum, dad, sister, brother and Godparents are added too. This really is an unique gift personalised to your needs. You can leave out information and add extra information in the box supplied on the product page.

Looking for something completely different, with no religious twist? How about  - Carousel - Christening Gift. 
All the animals are on the Christening carousel and enjoying the funfair. Add mum, dad, sister, brother, Grandparents and Godparents. This is a 50 x 40 cm print, slightly larger than the Christening Day wall art print. ​

Carla illustrates each image and then they are personalised with your baby's christening details. After all that they are sent out to be printed. All our Christening Gifts are printed on high quality art paper. You can opt to frame your Christening print on the product page. We offer free shipping on all orders within Ireland. We do ship Worldwide for a small fee..
