🌟Games Day 2024🌟
Yesterday was Games Day in Burntisland - the 2nd oldest highland games in the world, dating back to 1652. There is so much going on in the summer with the shows, our traditional funfair, beside the glorious beach!
My Burntisland Map print encompasses some of the towns history and landmarks.

🌟Daffodils🌟
Spring has sprung. Taking in the Daffodil Walk between Aberdour and Dalgety Bay today and it certainly lives up to its name at this time of year.

🌟Bluebells🌟
Managed to fit in a wee bit of sketching today, focusing on the curling petals of the Bluebells. The time is approaching, for bluebells to transform woodland floors into a delicate sea of blue.💙
Future pattern in the making…
What are your favourite signs of Spring?

🌟Swallows in Flight🌟
The Pantone colour of the year is Peach Fuzz
A light, delicate shade that sits between pink and orange. This soft, heartfelt hue expresses the desire to nurture kindness, compassion, and connection—all while fostering a deep coziness as we seek a peaceful future.
And it’s the perfect background for this Swallows print
Don’t you think? 🤔

🌟Robin Red Breast🌟

🌟Round Robin🌟
Look at this curious little guy! Still working away on my “Round of Robins”. In common with many other woodland birds, robins sport relatively short, rounded wings. This allows for rapid manoeuvrability in densely forested environments.
I would also like to wish you all a happy Burns Night! 🏴. We’ve just had our haggis, anyone else?

🌟Robins are not just for Christmas 🌟
Most Robins do not migrate they are simply more visible during winter as food is less readily available.
Did you know, the reason robins are used so frequently on Christmas cards is because during the Victorian era, when the tradition of sending Christmas cards began, postmen wore red jackets, earning them the nickname ‘robins’.
This lone Robin is a work in progress, my first of a group of Robins to create another piece based around collective nouns!

🌟Colour of the Year 2024🌟
“Peach Fuzz”– the newly crowned Pantone Colour of the Year, 2024. A velvety gentle peach whose all-embracing spirit enriches heart, mind, and body.
The colour combination below is reminiscent of some of the Scottish winter sunsets I’ve seen recently 🌅.
What do you make of Peach Fuzz?

Creating a brighter world
Emma Airnes is the creative talent behind BumBumBeeCreative (Bbbeecreative.com). I say, ‘creative talent’, knowing that Emma herself will be shy about ‘owning’ that description, but luckily, she has engaged the services of an Australian-based communications consultancy that’s not so shy about promoting her work. Oh, at this stage I should point out that comms consultancy also happens to be owned by her sister. The great thing about that is - I can share the real story behind BumBumBeeCreative. Siblings are great like that aren’t they?
Emma literally cut her teeth in a creative environment – probably on a paintbrush since our mother was also a gifted artist, as was her father before her, so Emma comes from a long line of creatives. We are so thrilled she is sharing that gift with others. The world certainly needs a splash of vibrant colour right now doesn’t it?
From poignant mementos, stylish, boutique wedding invites (coming soon), to vibrant nursery suite wall art, birth announcements, and individually crafted commissions Emma pours love and attention to the little details into each and every one of your pieces. In fact, you could say each creation is a celebration of the natural world, life and life’s milestones.
Emma Airnes graduated from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design with a BDes (Hons) before taking up teaching in the Art & Design Department at a leading High School in Scotland.
After having her first child Emma turned her attentions to the nursery suite market. Being a designer herself, she wanted to create a vibrant nursery space that reflected Adam’s personality – while retaining all the magic, wonder and innocence of childhood. Adam was soon joined by his little sister, Rosie who is adding her own joyous, raucous, colourful dimension to life for all concerned.
