Notes for your diaries, Lisa will be showing in the autumn at the Original Art Fair 23rd-29...

We are launching a Twitter competition to celebrate summer and Wimbledon with the Biscuit boys next week, so please join in to win a tin of yummy tennis biscuits and some cute bags from our brand new 'Cover Girl' range.
