Hey I'm Andy the designer of Alice Clare, An online vintage inspired boutique. I wanted to introduce myself and share my journey on a more personal level. Here you can follow me as we tumble down the rabbit hole of imagination and creativity. I love hearing feedback and discussing design concepts. This is the place to watch ideas blossom into life and include yourself throughout the design process 👍 I welcome all bad, crazy and wonderful, we're all mad around here 😜 let's find ourselves in wonderland 💖

Wow what a fun little process this was and the possibilities were endless...

I used Canva which is a free graphic design platform, making it easy to create.

These business cards are pretty 😍 and draw the eye with the use of contrasting colours. I was thinking they might make great swing tags since they are good to refere back to with the business details at your fingertips. They are printed on both sides of the card making the design process easier and more attractive 😉 When designing these cards I wanted to convey a message in the images, representing my Brand and what it stands for. I hope I could depict the thought of life interconnecting in the ease of a breeze and a sense of peacefulness with Spring and Summer just around the corner 😘

Canva offers affordable printing options on quality paper, a money back guarantee if required and they plant a tree 🌲 for the environment upon purchase 💗👌 

Let me know your thoughts.. what did you feel when you seen them.. please feel free to leave a comment..

So exciting to be sending parcels and making someone's day when they promptly receive something special from The Alice Clare Collection... 

Your purchase is gift wrapped environmentally friendly with matching tissue paper and twine and carefully placed inside a large letter box for extra protection. The swing tag you see in the photo is made of thick quality paper and locally made...

🥂 Here's to supporting small local businesses 🎊

There's nothing like that exciting feeling of receiving a gift in the mail and my gift is to make someone smile with quality goods, gift wrapped and promptly sent to your door with postage on me 😘 if you are wanting to add a special note feel free to email me

For this summer I'd like to depict a feeling of freedom, love and peace perhaps a little flower power... I'd like to also incorporate some 1920's and 1950's inspired designs too.

I'm loving clover green right now, Lavender and royal blue..

I'm wanting easy to wear flowing summer wear..

Sheer fabrics and breathable cottons.. 

Working on sunsafe, comfort and fun, eye catching designs.. 

Stay tuned..

❤️ Andy

This skirt is getting very heavy the more layers I add to it, even though the fabric is a light-weight cotton hope it wears ok. I'm a bit excited, I'm in love with these colours 😍 just deciding on placements of ruffles the blue will definitely be on the bottom I was thinking 🤔 keep in mind these ruffles will be way more gathered. They are shown here over front and back but I'll be using one for each side if that makes sense. What order do I want the colours to lay 🤔 any thoughts much appreciated 👍

The Alice Clare stall was at the Launceston show. It was a fantastic opportunity ☺️ will definitely be there next year too. I had the best 3 days alongside the beautiful Mona and her mystical crystal wands ❤️ Jane and her felt creations 💖 Joe and his comics 💣 boom and Maggie with her stunning embroidery you can find us at the Esk Market every Sunday from 9-2. 

Thought I'd mention I'm offering face painting too 🥰 it was such a hit 🎯 I just loved that moment when the kids seen themselves in the mirror 🪞 🤩 there happiness just made my day, happy children=happy parents. It was a blessing to offer my services as an option for everyone to afford. Couldn't have picked a better position to set up right next to Mrs Bee 🐝 and the Jazz bugs which offered parents a chance to sit and relaxe or join in with their kids dancing to the catchy tunes. I had so much fun 🥳🎊 and met some really lovely people 💗💐   

Stay tuned..

❤️ Andy 

This winter 🥶❄️ I'm travelling back to a 1930s era for a classy empowering look. Square shoulders, cute waist coats, square necklines, fitted waist and hips, faux fur, wide leg pants and sleek glam ❤️‍🔥

Loving colours: Green 💚 maybe forest moss

                         Royal Blue 💙 or Teal 

                         Purple 💜

                         Apricot 🍑 or gold 

                        Black 🖤 and White 🤍

As in yin yang for a perfect balance causing a feeling of empowerment 💪

Re-fashioning this 90's shirt into a 50's style was Soo much fun 😁🥰 I cut the sleeves off and reshaped the arm holes for a comfortable fit. I shortened the overall length and added darts to the back and pleats at the front I also bought in the sides and sewn a tie up waist to the hem.. check out the before, during and after pictures 💖✌️🫶
