Isla's 5th birthday is coming up soon.  I usually like to try and draw the invitation for her party (although I'm always quite envious of Helen Dardik's amazing invites she does for her daughters).

This year's is inspired by this photo I took the other day.  She has become very attached to my old Paddington Bear, so I had to include him.  And the rain.  The never ending, freezing rain.

I like the nervous, not-quite-sure-about-this look on his face.

  3. Thanks! Would have liked to spend longer on it, but of course I always leave these things to the last minute...

  7. Oh my word! how did I miss this one!! Bless both Miss Isla and Mr Paddington for their top photo shoot action, fantastic pic, everyone should have a Paddington to love. Super sweet invite, lucky little lady indeed, I wouldn't mind rain so much if it was rainbow rain.
