Here's a quick update about our recent trip to New Orleans! We took some time off to get away from the smoky air from the fires in LA in October and also to explore a new city. We had a blast! The food was incredible, we got to hold a baby gator, saw a lot of art and museums, and took advantage of being able to get cocktails to go. 😆 Here's a couple pics from our trip, and check my story highlight on instagram to see the rest! ⁠ The sculpture garden at New Orleans Museum of Art was...

One thing that's so important to us is being as eco-friendly as we can in our business, and we're always looking for where we can make improvements in our materials and process. We've been looking for a good eco-friendly mailer for some time and we finally found a good one that we'll be switching to! Our new kraft mailer that we'll soon begin shipping all our enamel pins and buttons with is made from 100% eco friendly recycled materials and is fully recyclable as well.  Our cards are eco friendly, too! They're now printed with organic soy inks and printed on FSC certified/recycled stock,...

Our latest shop update is all about cards!  We've been loving houseplants so we've got a new happy monstera leaf friendship card in the shop. I don't have a monstera plant just yet, but I want one! I always swear I won't buy a new plant everytime I head to the nursery since I have so many, but then I usually can't help it and end up taking home a new plant... whoops!! Who's with me on that one? We've also got a new churro birthday card in, I really enjoyed drawing these happy churros. We always love getting the churro at Disneyland, and while...

We recently got a chance to visit the rare corpse flower at CSULB in Long Beach! If you haven't heard about this giant flower, it only blooms once every 7-15 years, and then when it blooms it only stays open for about a day. Sometimes even less!  And.. it stinks! It smells awful, plus we were there on a cold day and we were told it smells much worse when it's warm out. I think we lucked out a little bit on that. Here's a few pics of it below, and make sure you're following us on Instagram for more adventures!...

 My art process actually varies quite a lot, and a lot of the time I don't start with a sketch at all and just work straight in Illustrator. In this case though, I had this idea while sketching up some new ideas for CatCon, so I started with this little sketch.  I was too lazy to use my scanner (yep) so I just took a photo of it with my phone instead and then started drawing over it in Illustrator. I generally use a lot of circles and basic shapes first, then combine them and edit them with the pathfinder and pen...
