I was asked to give Posca Pens a try - pens that will write (and permanently stay) on anything. I love trying to customise things and thought it would be a great chance to doodle away on some T-Shirts for Albert and make some artwork....
Albert has been teething in a massive way. Rosy red cheeks, dribbling like a tap and attempting to chew on anything and everything. Over the past couple of months I seem to have collected quite a few different teething bits and pieces so I thought...
