Happy Birthday Hooray

I have been working on some fun new Birthday designs - this one here features my sweet kitties, Pickle & Peanut. More to come!

Starting a new book

I have started my next book, all about my own little guy, Theo. He’s 6 years old and full of great advice for kids on how to be a little dude in a big world. I cannot wait to share it once it’s all done.

My first book publication is almost ready!

I am so very excited to share my first published book called Punky Poodle’s Book of Big words! I am in the final process of finishing it and it’ll be published September 13th - my own (punky’s birthday)! That’s what I call my daughter, Siri. My son, Theo, even makes an appearance as a blue poodle inside the book. This has been a long awaited dream of mine and I am so happy I could do so.

Here are some sneak peeks at some of the pages.

Retro Play • Vehicles

I was thinking while design these cute stickers, what reminds me of the 60’s and has a very hippie vibe… Old Cars! Station wagons, bugs, Shelby and VW Vans. Yeah, I just love them.

Available in my shop here on the website! Limited designs are available on my etsy shop here. Just the van one will be on there. They raised their rates and I am among the peeps that aren’t happy. So, I will do a tease and have them all on here. We gotta do what we need to do.

New Acrylic Shapes in the SHOP

These photos feature the new floral acrylic shapes I’ll have in the shop this week! Ferns, Flowers on long leafed stems, little button flower shapes. They make such a statement on a magnetic board. Think of the endless possibilities of fun that can be made…. Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day, Spring, etc. Look in the shop for them this week!

Some New Art In The Works • Peonies & Ferns

Lol!
