Looking for some free printable Valentines? Check out this funny illustration – my heart beats for you!
As the days draw nearer to Valentine’s day, I have been thinking a lot regarding love-themed designs. I started sketching out some ideas and first came up with a bunch of medical themed, geeky sentiments. Something like “gimme a shot of love” for medical folks. Yes, I’m easily amused! Working on some other themes as well but I thought today would be a good opportunity to offer a freebie card in the same vein (OMG, I did it again!)
I present you with “my heart beats for you” – literally! Download the free printable valentines below, just click the image for the full-size version.
Hope you like it! Enjoy!

Like many other artists and crafters, January is typically a time for organizing and planning. After the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, we can finally settle down and get focused for the upcoming year! I usually start my new year with making a few art journals to use and a yearly planner to help me keep focused on future tasks and goals. Writing out your thoughts, goals and tasks not only helps you to remember them later, but I think the act of writing helps to reinforce the idea in your mind as well. This year I decided to design some planner pages that I could print out at home and quickly bind together. I’m currently really loving the teal and gray color palette, however I like to leave lots of white space for doodling and coloring as well.
I think these planner pages are versatile enough for everyone and great for printing out to incorporate in your bujo and planners… if you don’t want to redraw boxes or want something reoccurring.
Feel free to download the graphics above (click to get large versions) to print for your own personal planner this year.
I created things to do list – always handy – as well as the weekly and daily planner pages. I took the easy route and just printed various combinations of the pages front and back on regular paper, then folded them all in half to make a simple booklet planner. You can also cut the pages in half and bind the pages in various combinations to suit your specific planning needs. I’m going to save more complicated binding techniques for an art journal I’m working on…I’ll show that tomorrow. Enjoy!

Oh dear! Only a few days left until Christmas Day and I still have a huge list of to dos. In the rush of wrapping gifts there’s always a need for cute holiday graphic images, so I decided to whip up an angel illustration today. I’m a big fan of personalizing each gift with a different illustration – if possible – as well as matching all the different elements together. I can use the illustration to make a greeting card, matching labels, tags and even decoration for the wrapping paper. It’s a quick and easy way to dress up a gift and really give it that handmade personal touch.
Let me share my angel illustration with you to use on your personal holiday projects. All you have to do is click the image for the large version and download to your computer. You can print it out in the size you want and cut it out for use – all straight lines so it’s easy and quick. I’ve also included the black and white version below for all your digital stampers out there – I’m one of them, too!
Hope you like this quick little freebie!

Happy holidays to everyone first of all. Can you believe that Christmas is nearly here? Less than 10 days to finish all those projects, wrap presents and prepare for the festivities. Woohoo! I have been busy working on various winter related designs and one of them is a wreath graphic for a digital card I created. I decided to use this same wreath graphic for some last minute notecards with matching envelopes and labels/tags. I think it’s definitely a very festive set and happy with the results.

Wednesday is hump day as we used to call it back in my old workplace. Half the week is nearly done, but still another half to go. I like to break up the workweek with something other than the things I MUST do. It’s fun for me to break up my time with something casual that I can share with you all. A little something to get you over the hump day! Hence, I declare it to be free goodies Wednesday!
Christmas is a time of many lists to check off, especially for gift shopping. I have to admit that I’m a huge list maker, in general anyway. I just LOVE crossing out and checking off items that are complete. It gives me great satisfaction and I think it’s good to pat yourself on the back sometimes and realize how much you’ve accomplished. That is why I also break up tasks into the smallest parts possible – more to cross off, right? It’s really a great feeling and breaking tasks into small bits makes it all the easier to accomplish as well. A little project management trick, I say. I am currently working on some mini sketchbooks, handbound with leather covers and I’ve written out every tiny step to make it pretty mindless, especially since I have to make duplicates.

Thus, I’ve created the little owlies Christmas list for your holiday task listing! The little owlies are sort of my mascots as I created them way back, when I first started blogging and sharing my designs. Write down all your to do’s and get it off your mind. Break it all up into small steps and then cross ’em out when completed. Feels good, doesn’t it?
