Preview Day 2 - Equestrian Paper Dolls + Custom Pet Portraits

Yesterday I shared some artwork that I'll be making into a new printable stationery design for you... today is something completely different!

Many of my new listings are inspired by Christmas gifts that I made for some of my family this year... I created these paper dolls for my youngest niece, who is way into horses (my favorite thing when I was a little girl), and now I'm sharing them with you! Who doesn't enjoy a good old fashioned paper doll? :) They will be blank so you or your kiddos can make them any color you want! If I get requests for it I'll probably add color versions too... and I have plans for different scenes and horses and riders from different disciplines of riding as well depending on how well this set sells!

Look for these printables tonight at 12am EST at Scoutaroo Paper Co! ♥


Also I keep forgetting that today is New Year's Eve... I thought I had an extra day to put together new listings for the shop! Ack! So here's a bonus preview. I'll be offering custom pet portraits now too! There are a few variations and options available, but I'm pretty excited about these colored pencil Victorian-styled ones which I will be offering for $75:

Anybody have any fun New Years Eve plans? I'll be at home with my family, playing board games, eating junk food, and watching The Twilight Zone. Gooooood times. Oh, and listing these fun things on my Etsy shop at midnight EST! ♥

Bring it on, 2014...

Lots of Lettersets! ♥

Today was the best Monday ever. I spend a large portion of the morning meditating on leisure (Josef Pieper), then moseyed on over to Bidwell Perk, the coffee shop down the street, to crank out the illustrations for these bad boys! I feel accomplished.

First up, we have a lovely Rainy Day stationery design which I made in response to your votes! Don't worry, there will be dinosaurs and derby girls and ratties and more Bowie in the future... but I love rain clouds (I miss them! Come back rain!) so I had a lot of fun with this one.
Gridlines + Clouds = my favorite things
One of my penpals from here in California suggested I make some butterfly stationery because it's a popular motif amongst snail mailers on swap-bot.com. I'm not much into butterflies, but moths are bad-ass, so I compromised, haha. My grandma loves butterflies, so I will have to make some for her & the other butterfly lovers out there in the near future.
Featuring an Emerald Gum Moth
Next up! You've seen this first kitty before! He's for sale in my shop already, but I decided to make him some friends. ♥ I'll be selling them individually and also in a variety pack!
Tubby Tabby
Mischievous Maine Coon
Suave Siamese
So now I'll have some fresh new stationery for the shop this week, and just in time for my craft show on May 11th! Oh, and here's another opinion poll... thanks to everyone who voted in the last one! That was very helpful to me! ♥
