I am very excited to announce my first ever online collaboration with Laura Pashby, freelance writer, editor and lifestyle photographer (not to mention the mother of three small boys!). Her blog, Circle of Pine Trees, is a record of time passing and of the seasons changing. It’s a blog for those who take pleasure in a posy of flowers picked from the garden or the way in which sunlight falls across the pillow. It's for those of us who notice the beauty in life’s little moments.
The photo features we are stardust's new Christmas cards: Robin singing and Mistletoe parasite.
Here's what Laura has written about our collaboration (be sure to read to the end - there's a giveaway of 30 Christmas cards in it!). Text cross-posted with kind permission from the Circle of Pine Trees blog.
Since I launched my #littlestoriesofmylife project over on Instagram in September last year, over 180 thousand images have been tagged. It is a hashtag for celebrating and/or sharing the tiniest elements of the stories of our lives. Small doesn’t equate to insignificant: these are the little moments that add up to the narratives that carry us all. In Instagram’s frames of beauty or of emotion, we are each the teller of our own story.
This November, the #littlestoriesofmylife gallery is being sponsored by we are stardust, a greetings card shop where art and science collide. Cards are researched, illustrated and designed by Agnes Becker for those with wild natures, sophisticated minds, and loyal hearts. Each card captures a fact, story or curiosity, so that when you post a we are stardust card to your loved one, you gift them with a moment of wonder for the natural world.
For the winning image, we are stardust are kindly providing a box of 30 of their beautiful festive cards.
To enter:
- Tag with #littlestoriesofmylife any image that you upload to Instagram which captures a moment, or contains a narrative, however small it may be.
- And also add the tag #littlestoriesofmylife_wearestardust.
- Tag me (@circleofpines) and @wearestardustuk in your image, so that we can find it.
This competition will run for one month – we will choose our favourite images and the winner will be announced at the start of December. Good Luck.
In the meantime, do head over to the we are stardust store and take a peek- there’s so much to swoon over! Thank you to everyone who has tagged their images so far.
The #littlestoriesofmylife gallery remains a magical space to lose a few moments. I look forward to sharing in your November stories.
