Artist Feature~ Cupcakes for Clara



This week Midnight Reads would like to welcome artist/crafter Laura to the blog. We love Laura's work and actually came across her on twitter. Laura is the wife of author Tom Clempson we love his book but we're not here to talk about Tom today, this is Laura's feature!

Laura's main creation is Clara who we love!!!

Cupcakes for Clara was born one lunchtime at work, I was just doodling and Clara stumbled onto the page. A cheeky, bossy little red-head with a great need for attention. Since that day four years ago, she has never given me a moments peace, and has become the basis for my range of handmade goods.


  Cupcakes for Clara features handmade toys, stationary, fabric illustrations, home wares, and make your own kits. And several pieces of my work have been published in books and magazines. I love designing/sewing soft toys. There is something so wonderful about creating soft toys - they seem to develop their own personalities as you sew them - its almost like youve created a little person!






You can find out more about Laura, Clara and the rest of her creations over at her:~
