The winner is....

Well, it looks like my first giveaway wasn't as great as I thought it would be.

It's ok. I know I will do better the next one.

It was quite tricky to pick one amongst the few entries. But I did chuckled when I first looked at this person's creative names for one of the character. I thought I might as well name one of my Mushy Character that. I will think of a way to name the other characters.

Please meet Octopushy - Mushy Character

Minzy Girl is going to love it now that she can call him with a decent name! :)

Congratulations to The Big Boss!

Can you please email me your address for your print at irene[at]missyminzy[dot]com

Thank you for all of your participation. It really means a lot to me! :)

My First Markets with Fairy Floss Markets

Sorry I have been missing in action on the blog. So the first markets for Missy Minzy is done deal last Sunday. And I have been catching up with long needed sleeps and real life. Gotta need the balance! Apparently Peanut and Mr Minzy were tired too. Hey, but I thought I was the one having weeks of late nights?? ;)

Anyways, some pictures on how my first markets went with Fairy Floss Markets.

Fairy Floss Markets' Launch Market

Met some really lovely people at the market. It's good to put names on faces.

Stallholders busy setting up their stalls before 9am arrives!

Ahh..my stall's set up

Missy Minzy's Stall on the actual day :)

I did mentioned sometime end of July or early August that it would be great to have at least 1 market before Year 2011 arrives. Guess what? I am going to have another 3 markets before Year 2011. So my next market will be at Williamstown (with Fairy Floss Markets) on 14th November 2010. Click here for more details.

Once you start, you never want to stop. Having markets is great fun!

I am working on some new items for my next markets. Just need to find the time write more over here, respond to more emails and request. Getting busy is great but being busy with good profit opportunities popping up would even better and lovely.

Please bear in mind that my first giveaway has now extended to 8th October 2010 (Australia time). It is a very easy way of getting some Missy Minzy 5 x 7" print of your choice. Just come up with 3 creative names for the 3 weird mushy characters. Click here for more details. Winner will be announced here on 10th October, this coming Sunday.

My 1st Giveaway - Creative Name for these 3 Weird Characters

In the beginning, there were all the odd shapes, crazy, quirky colourful mushrooms in Missy Minzy's World (it's insane I tell you!!)...and then Minzy Girl appeared to be the only one who live in Minzy's World...and what's next?

Mushy Mama ?

You have met him..he has been hanging around on this blog for awhile ;)

Octopus Mushy?

I tried to colour them but they don't look good in colour.

I still prefer them just how the way I first hand drawn them. It's original, simple and tacky. :)

Do you have any suggestion on what name to name these 3 little weird creatures? :)

I like to have a funny ha-ha title for my work.

So switch on your creative hat and win yourself a small print - 5" x 7" of your choice.

I will pick the best set for the 3 of them which make me laugh.

Sneak Peek Shots

Yes, am still alive and I have not gone with the wind as yet. ;) My week has been v full on. Peanut seems to be more alert these days. She took up a lot of my time and energy during the day. and I tend to feel tired after dinner (she has gone to bed by then). So it is good to finally get the chance to post something.

It's time for some sneak peek shots over here again.

was playing with some lino print again.

had this block craved by myself when I first started this blog.

always a fan of making all things handmade or/and handprinted. :)

Please Don't Eat Me (8 x 10 inches) in lino print.

Original lino print. Only 2 available.

It won't be on sales online at the moment.

Please leave a comment if you like to purchase one.

Tree of life (8 x 10 inches) in lino print.

Only 7 copies available to be purchased. They are all original lino prints.

It's not an easy process to make from home,

especially having my newborn laying around where am working.

So, I won't be making them in the near future again.

Please leave a comment if you like to purchase any of them.

Yes! Missy Minzy has greeting cards' version too! :)

In the wood series No.4 (8 x 10 inches)

Taken from one of my original sketches..

and No.4 is just one of the execution.

By the way you might be wondering how come some are not available to be purchased etc. There's 2 more weeks before Fairy Floss Markets' arriving (on 3rd October). Hence the busy-ness and won't have time to list and etc. Busy expanding my current range and so is building up my stock for my first market!! :) Be happy for me please. :)

Will be unveiling more of Minzy Girl's series tomorrow. Do remember to pop by if you like to know what she's been up to in Missy Minzy's World, tomorrow. :)
