Hiii and happy 2024, for this month's printable/downloadable I thought "what is something that I'm really into right now?" and what came to me...was lamps. Mid-mod lamps, specifically. But as you might know I can't just draw a lamp. It must be sen...

Happy December :-D I'm so excited to be posting printables again. This month I've got two 5x7 in. (13 x 18cm) postcards-size prints for you. Could just be fun to hang on your wall or write a little something on the back and send to a friend.
Yesterday I spent the day feeling sorry for myself because a big project opportunity with a celebrity client fell though (so funny because in my latest v...
