The big day is coming....


So, the big day is inspiring me to do all things London.
We visited just a few weeks ago and I love it. I originaly come from Hertfordshire which is only 20 miles away, it holds lots of special memories for me.....
So I embarked upon a London Bus filled with fun characters.
The idea was for it to be all animals, but my daughters had other plans....they are on the bus!
After completing it, My eldest, Elle, decided to write a poem about it, which I have to share with you...

"There was a bus, that was a must,
to all the people all around.
It took a tour across Buttonland,
The beaches full of sea and sand.
The passengers on it were very fun,
under the big bright smiling sun.

There was a lion called Lenny,
and a penguin called Penny,
and Belinda Bunny , who was very funny,

 Daisy the driver Dog,
who drove through sun and fog.
and Ollie the Owl
who hated cows.

Benny the bird who was quite a nerd,
and Beverly bird who was quite absurd!
And there was Joan Giraffe,
(she was a real laugh)

There were 3 children aboard the bus, that was a must.
Their names were Hope, Alex and Elle,
and they were all kind, as you can tell...

The bus was red, big and bright,
and was always a magical brilliant sight!

By Elle Fennell age 9

I thought that was ace!
anyway, on a London note, here is my canvas available from www.happyspaces.co.uk

 I found another one of my cards in M&S this week, for boys aged between 8-11.
I did this about a year ago, and already , I can see how my work is changing....
