✨splashdown✨ I know I haven’t been as active on this account lately but, yes I have been enjoying all of the coverage of the Artemis II mission! In honor of the completion of their journey, I thought I’d share an illustration from my 2024 Spacetober series. This has definitely been an inspiring flight and I can’t wait to get back to making space art again soon 💫

Got a song stuck in your head? Draw it! ✍️

Long time - no post! I know, I know. I haven’t created much art, sewed, or done anything really lately 😆 I am expecting another baby this year, and pregnancy and chasing around my 3 year old has occupied all of my time. I did, however, find some time this week to draw this abstract galaxy. This sketchbook has so many “boring” pages so I’m trying to spruce it up a little before I retire it. It’s almost full! Hoping to post a little more once school starts but we will see 😆

All wanted for his birthday was custom token cards for Star Wars Unlimited. He really liked an art style that was minimalist, flat, and kind of retro. I just barely made my deadline for these because he’s using them in tournament tonight! 😅 Good luck Tom! I printed these out at home last night and they didn’t turn out too bad, but I plan on getting them printed professionally onto playing cards. I might make some slight adjustments to the layouts before that but otherwise very pleased. I like all of them, but I definitely have a favorite. Which is yours?

✨listed✨ Now in the shop! Need a new print for your office? I got you 😉 what’s your favorite go-to snack? Mine is Dot’s honey mustard pretzels yum!

I’m up to 34 new listings ✨ Still all digital download prints. I am just starting to plan for stickers. (I have so many designs. Many I have never shared!!) I need to order new sticker making supplies and so much has changed since I last made them. So many more sticker supplies are more readily available. I’m excited! But since I make them all myself, it’s going to be a little slow moving so I hope you’re all patient 😅

Ps. Don’t forget you can always ask me to print and ship if you don’t want to both with the printing!

16 new listings, 60+ listings to go! 😅 All of these are digital download prints, but you are ✨always✨ welcome to message me about printing+shipping. I’m happy to do that for you!

Ps- That first design was from my very first in 2018!

New profile pic! I came across this spread in an art journal from a few years back when I was going through scanning artwork. I totally forgot about it! 😅 Forever a space gal 🚀

You can purchase most of my designs as digital downloads (print yourself) or I can print and ship for you — and for extra special occasions you can custom order the original or a hand-drawn edition.

Working on a hand-drawn edition this week for my first custom order in a long time! These are my favorite kinds of custom orders to work on ✍️✨

It’s been a long time since I posted about my Etsy shop! It’s been up and running this whole time, but a bit neglected. It was time for a refresh! I’m hoping to do a big shop update soon with lots of new listings, but to start I gave my digital listings a makeover.

When I first started on Etsy I was selling mostly hand embroidered items, and then I started selling my templates as digital prints. I kind of put them up on a whim not knowing if they would actually selI so I didn’t put much thought into the staging 😆 I hadn’t updated these state item listings in over 10 years 🤯 (swipe to see the original picture). Don’t the new listing pictures look so much better!? I would also constantly get custom requests for sizing/format, so now each state print includes a 5x7,8x10, and portrait/landscape orientations. I also have a new listing which takes care of the printing and shipping if printable items aren’t your thing.

Fun fact: Did you know I have lived in all these states?
