new product launches featuring my designs

Two of my retail partners have launched new products featuring my designs. I love to see how my artwork can transform an ordinary item into something fun and unique!

My  long time partner, tiny prints , has recently released a small selection of personalized mugs . There are so many cute designs to choose from but I'll bet you can guess who was responsible for this  "vintage buds" design?

In addition, Itzy Ritzy has added a fun new "bento lunch box"  to their awesome line up of products.  It was exciting to see my work applied to these eco-friendly lunchboxes, as I think my designs add a special "pop" of color and fun!

tiny prints holiday designs | inspiration board

Seems hard to believe...but I've actually been knee deep in holiday design mode for the past few weeks. My first round of submissions were due last Friday for tiny prints holiday. I always create my own  inspiration board to use while designing. It is an invaluable resource. I print and hang this on my bulletin board...so it's a constant reminder and source of inspiration. As you can tell...I'm really feeling some "non-traditional" color pairings this year.

sneak peak | tinyprints designs

Here's a sneak peek at a couple of the new birth announcements I designed for tinyprints. They should be live on the site in the next few weeks.  I love how bright and modern they are! Gets me excited for Spring!

on trend mondays

I work hard at trying to stay "on trend" and pride myself in the fact that I try to stay a step ahead of the curve. I love it when I see a design/trend emerge months after I've applied it to something...it just validates my efforts of trying to stay on top of things in this ever changing world of design! Here is a holiday card I designed for tinyprints in 2010:

And look at this beautiful bedding I found while browsing the spring catalog at Crate & Barrel :
