Debenhams Christmas Collection

We're totally in the Christmas spirit this week at P&C - even more so now we've spotted Bec's beautiful collection in Debenhams!

Featuring super cute winter characters with colourful foliage detail, we're sure this lot would go down a treat at any festive table.

We especially have our eye on those salt & pepper shakers - what cuties!

We're getting outside and back to nature with today's rustic Mini Trend.

Think painterly brown and orange hues, woodland creatures and beardy woodcutter types.

Perfect for crisp autumn days!

Mini Trend!

Terrazzo tile inspired prints have slowly been taking over

our Pinterest feeds, and we don't mind one bit!

Popping up on everything from jewellery and stationery to homewares and prints, 

we love this style as a fun alternative to confetti prints.

 We've taken things a bit more traditional for our final halloween

mini trend, but with a cool and minimal edge. 

Think simple mark making, minimal colour pops in orange 

or chartreuse and gold foil accents.

Happy Halloween!

We have more halloween treats today with 

this super fun emoji themed mini trend.

We love this colourful and cute take on ghosts and ghouls, and these especially

great pumpkin decorating options if you're not too great at carving them!

With Halloween fast approaching we're feeling a little bit spooky... but still keeping things sweet with cute characters, pastel colours and fluffy details.

That cotton candy costume is the sweetest!

Colour Me Happy!

On today's 'Colour Me Happy' palette we've gone all out minty!

Marvellous mint green has been teamed with brick red to create this awesome colour combo, 

mixed in with softer neutrals, pastel blues and pinks.

Mini Trend - Natural Beauty

Understated but so pretty, this trend takes us from the hazy days of summer

into the beginning of autumn, bringing the outside in with displays of foraged fallen leaves
and prints based in nature.
The soft and delicate patterns have hints of autumnal mustards 

and browns, and florals are interspersed with bare branches. Lovely!

Spotted P&C designs!

It's so nice to see our designs come to life out there in the big wide world, and when the in-house teams do such fabulous jobs creating gorgeous products featuring our illustrations, it makes us very happy inside!

Here's a few we've spotted recently...

We love this drawstring bag from Accessorize with Gemma's beautiful fox illustration.

Lou's graphics look lovely on these pieces above from

Boots Mini Club in store now!

We were super happy to see these bedding designs Laura worked on for Bluezoo in Debenhams, 

and we love the styled rooms, how nice do they look!

And lastly, some fab little pieces of nightwear for your little ones, available from TU Clothing.

Babywear and girlswear pyjamas featuring Gemmas lovely girl illustration and Lou's little monsters, woodland designs and a pretty owl in her winter wonderland palace.

It might be officially autumn, but we're clinging to the last few days of summer with

this beautiful Asian influenced Mini Trend. 

We've been so inspired by this gorgeous painterly take on paisleys and florals, and the pretty yet rich jewel colours.

The new P&C collection is back in Paris this week at Premiere Vision Designs.

Full of our trademark fun and whimsical artworks, pop along to stand 5V65 to view the entire portfolio from 19th to 21st September.

        

Summer seems to have disappeared slightly here in the UK, whatever the weather, there's nothing like a trip to the big apple to brighten our day!

We've rounded up the guys... and even managed to persuade the dogs and bears to travel together nicely!

P&C will be exhibiting at Printsource on the 8th and 9th August, at Hotel Pennsylvania. We'll have an array of shiny new artworks across baby, kids wear, interiors, stationery, fabric and much more, all inspired by the latest trends.

We hope you'll pop by so we can make your day a little brighter too!

As a studio full of lovely ladies we know a thing or two about girl power, and this mini trend 

is the perfect reflection of that. 

With fun illustrations showing women of all kinds, this is one trend we're hoping will stick around.

Who runs the world? Girls!

The weather is feeling a bit grey again here, so we're all feeling in need of a lovely fresh colour palette ...just like this one! Pretty and girly with a mix of pastel pink and a soft teal - our favourite!

Kate Pugsley is an illustrator we’ve admired for quite a while, so when we saw those gorgeous embroidered kitties we did a little squeal! Kate has collaborated with italian brand Lazzari on this collection of fun prints, including one featuring her signature fashion girls. We love this awesome combo of illustration and fashion and would love to get our hands on and of these fab shirts. New studio uniform perhaps?
