It’s been out first week in the Birmingham studio and although I’d like to say it has gone smoothly I would be lying. On our first day the telelphone line went down.

Asides from that fiasco, it has been great. We feel so productive! So what gems do we have for you this week? We have our “SMILE does Plus 08” book just incase you missed it at the time, a sneak peek at the SMILE Creative Consultants Journal 2009, Where’s Wally! (yes, did just read Where’s Wally!) and a beautiful concertina fold book from Charlotte Vallance.

So just incase you missed it, you really should check out our “SMILE does Plus 08” book. Published on Blurb.com and available for £39.95.

We’ve made a limited number of “SMILE Creative Consultants Journal 2009” — An A5 publication (available for sale soon) that details SMILE as a creative consultancy, answers questions such as “Why Yellow?” and has little quirky articles about Sue, Matt and myself. Check back soon because I will be writing up a full bog post on this.

As you will no-doubt know by now, we all graduated only a matter of days ago. At our graduation show, the illustration students put together a shop of their work. I picked up this wonderful concertina fold book by Charlotte Vallance.

Want to see your work featured on the SMILE Creative Consultants coffee table? You can either send us your work via email, in person or by post! Remember SMILE is open to everyone, you can drop by and play some ping-pong or just enjoy an ice lolly on our balcony!
