New cards - Concertinis!


I have some new cards! I've been working on these for a long time, and now have seven designs. When folded shut they are standard postcard size and fit in a C6 envelope. Each one folds out to reveal a surprise in the middle! 

Some are birthday-friendly, or congratulatory - I thought the canon one could be for a "you'll go far!" type message - but I wanted to leave most of them blank for all occasions! They are professionally printed on nice thick white card stock with a matte finish on the front. The backs are left plain white for individual messages. 


Each Concertini comes with a matching coloured envelope in a cello bag. They are £2 each, or get the whole set of seven for £12!

Check them out in my shop now!

**To celebrate Concertini time, I'm doing a giveaway of a complete set of seven! Please leave a comment below to be in with a chance to win! 
I will do a random draw at noon UK time on Tuesday 24th November!**

New home for Oddleigh!

So I've got a new home for Oddleigh - it's a Tumblr made with the Simple Webcomics template, I think it's going to work well!

I've put a link in the tabs at the top of this blog. I hope you'll follow along with Sid and Jessie there!

But I'll keep posting them here for now as well! Having fun colouring them up, I think it's making them easier to read...

Colour caterpillars


I'd really like to start a separate blog for these guys, the comics kind where you have a forward, back, random button, so I can make them more readable and chronological - if anyone has any tips about this I'd be really grateful. I know there's a template you can use on Wordpress, but Wordpress really confuses me, even before I look into adding in other templates... any help would be really appreciated! Thank you!

Thought Bubble Leeds weekend

It's the Thought Bubble Festival this weekend in Leeds! I have a table in the Royal Armouries Hall all day on Saturday and Sunday. I'll be at table number 3 - just before you get to the entrance for the talks and panels. Please come by and see me! I would love it - I'm looking forward to the weekend, and to seeing everyone else's super work. 


I'll have my Welcome to Oddleigh comic, 20 pages A5 size. I'll have stickers, cards and bargainously priced screen prints for sale! Including this new guy:


Wrestling cat wants to wrestle with you! Don't deny him this pleasure!!

I'll be showing my new Concertini cards... which due to being disorganised I haven't got enough printed of, but they'll be there to show and then in my online shop next week. 

Here are three of seven designs I've made:


There'll be cushions... there'll be risos... there'll be my nervous face! It'll all be happening.

Hope to see you there!

Welcome to Oddleigh - Caterpillar party

Rickety has had a name change! The bureaucracy was a nightmare, but finally Mayor Sheep approved the new name - Oddleigh. I just felt like something more obvious was called for!
