Business card designs

Love that blue-green blend of colours. Almost turquoise but not quite.

Such retro colours.

Jukeboxprint

Got my samples from Jukeboxprint today : ) I was worried that it would never show up since there was a fairly long delay.
Their products are VERY affordable - I cannot stress this enough - SUPER DUPER affordable compared to local print stores and other online stores that I know of (except for Vista).
The quality isn't great but not bad either. The edges of some business cards and postcards are frayed, some of the designs are not centered and the folds of the brochures are not very neat.
Moo does a much better job but it's also much more expensive.
In other words, it's definitely worth it for the price. I need a gazillion business cards to hand out at the convention - this is perfect!
I can't decide between the matte and super gloss options.

Button & magnet collage

2" magnets and 2.25" buttons

Cleaned up my Etsy store too, making sure the wooden floor looks the same. Lighting is such an issue with my point-and-shoot. I could really use an SLR.

The older I get, the more I realize this

When I was in high school, I thought this would change. Same for university.
Fake it until you make!

Business card design

I'm starting to run out of business cards, so here's a new design I made. I'm either using this one or one of the previous designs.

Old Moo business cards. Absolutely looooved the quality.

360 Penguins

Got lucky to see this 360 view of the penguin home.
Love the little fish huts.

BFF tea bags

Draft drawing of tea baggies.
Now to Photoshop for some shading and filling!

"Don't worry, it happens to the best of us."
Better: "Dont' worry, it happens to all of us," from Magic1cWind0w.
Heart tea bag is a good friend.

Original leaky tea bag drawing from 2008.
Love this little guy : )

Fancy squirrel and his tea

Watching Love Actually and somehow came up with this.
The outline looks pretty nice. *not bad face*
Update: people on dA have taken quite a liking to fancy squirrel.

Sketch of fancy squirrel who was originally a chipmunk without a 'stache.

Rice buddy finds elusive rice cooker

In other news, let's give a warm welcome to a new buddy: Elusive Rice Cooker (Erky). He hides in bushes and finds great delight in running away from rice buddies. Rice buddies try hard to catch him so that they can enjoy sauna. Nothing beats a a nice, relaxing sauna after toiling on the paddy field all day long!

Overwhelmed. So, so overwhelmed!

The second my cold disappeared, I thought about the amazing week and a half I had "off." Now my "to-do" list seems a bit crazy.

1. School is starting soon
2. Bachelorettes and weddings
3. Family staying over for two weeks
4. Game!
5. Work. Omg, work.
6. My art!!! I need to keep creating
7. Anime North art sale
8. UV art sale
9. So hard to keep my hands off of food when I'm in this mood...
10. So much to do in such a little amount of time! Mmm, nachos. I'm definitely getting some tomorrow with *extra cheese and sour cream* to relieve some stress
