Flossy and Bluebelle Featured in New Calendar!

For the third year in a row, I was honored to be asked by The New Fat, a creative graphic design agency located in Nottingham, UK, to supply a photo for their calendar. This time my work is featured in the August calendar, the perfect month for picnics! Here's a small image of the calendar:


To get your own copy of the calendar (in a larger size for better viewing), which you can save on your desktop as wallpaper, go to The New Fat web site and follow the instructions for downloading.

Flossy and Bluebelle are so excited about this opportunity to be seen by people all over the world. This is Bluebelle's first time to be featured, and Flossy's second. Last year Flossy was preparing for a picnic, and this year she and Bluebelle finally get to eat some cake--yay! Here's last year's calendar for comparison:


I really enjoy working with The New Fat. Every year I love seeing how they transform my photo into a fun calendar. I love their style and creativity with the fonts and other calendar details, and they always fit their final touches with my work so harmoniously. Thank you so much, The New Fat!

Do you have a fun weekend planned? I hope it's not too hot or too cold where you are. Tomorrow our temperatures are supposed to get back in the comfortable range (mid-80s F). I'm doing a little happy dance just thinking about it! Plus my guinea pig, Rufus, looks like he's feeling a lot better this morning. That's a huge relief, after several rounds of antibiotics did a number on his gastrointestinal tract. I'm looking forward to our next visit. Until then, keep it fun! xoxo Jennifer

  1. Hello Jennifer,
    Congratulations. It is a wonderful picture. It is cool here...no pool, but still it is comfortable to stay outdoors and work on minis.
    Big hug,

  4. Hi Jennifer and Congratulations! What a cheerful picture. Your scenes always makes me happy. Now I love to look at them because I've got a sad news... We have extremely hot weather. About 30 C. Yesterday it was storming and thundering. But I enjoy the summer. And life too. Hugs!

  11. Hi Jennifer!
    Congratulations on the well deserved honor. Thanks so much for the link to the calendar. I always have a calendar as my desktop wallpaper and I am thrilled with you photo for August. Our weather has returned to the 80's as well with lower humidity, but I think there is rain on the way this week. I am not complaining..everything is green and pretty :-) I'm glad to hear that Rufus is feeling better.
    Have a great weekend!

  18. These designers really have taste - congrats on being featured once more with one of your gorgeous scenes. And in a way this makes sense - last year preparing for the picknic, this year enjoying the picnic... what will be next year? Hmmm... maybe taking a sunbath after the picnic... ;O) Good to hear Rufus is getting better and that you can recover from the heatwave. I wish I could too...

    Hugs
