There’s something really invigorating about giving your best effort in making a letter. Planning in advance, stretching your creativity as far as you can, using your best skills to make it all work… 

I’ve been pretty busy lately and have let my letter-decorating slide. But then @nolessthandauntless sent me an incredible pocket letter last month, so I knew I wanted to pull out all the stops and do my best work in response. I think this turned out well, but I know I can do better! 

I’m going to try to take the time to push myself and make more beautiful letters in the future!

Some of my favorite features:

Brown paper envelope

Penpal info card

Clear plastic pockets

Hand drawn puzzle

Cat Craft Paper

Absolutely amazing! I want to try to do this to keep up with old friends now.

[peahatpost]

omg I TOTALLY encourage you to do it!!! Having penpals/sending letters is so rewarding!!

Shop closed for restocking!

Closing the shop for a couple weeks so I can restock some sold out stuff... and take a short break. u__u I’m only one Goomba!! 

Any open orders will be shipped today or tomorrow! And I’ll still be online and around to answer any questions. Hoping to make some cool mail art and letters too for my poor penpals that I haven’t replied to in like a THOUSAND YEARS. So look forward to some letter pics, hopefully!!

Asahi Con was a dream! 

It reminded me of everything I love about little cons. I met so many great people, including my table partner, Marriel! Also got a lot of COOL STUFF and commissions!!! There are so many talented artists! :,V 

To any new followers from Asahi Con, please feel free to say hi or chat at any time! 

Thanks to the Asahi Con staff for a great con !  ♥ ♥ ♥

WELL, KRAKEN CON WAS FANTASTIC AS USUAL! 

Put my old Link print from 2012 back in rotation. It has inspired me to make some new prints. -w- I also met a lot of cool new people! To any new followers from Kraken Con: GOOD MORNING, STARSHINES! Feel free to chat or ask any questions at any time.

I’ve got one more con to go, and that’s Asahi Con. Then I can bury myself in the dirt and hibernate until Fall :3 

Hope you guys are having a good April!

Day 2 of the SF Cherry Blossom Festival was JUST AS COOL! I brought my Goomba plush that day and also snagged this beautiful fern. 

I ALSO met @heidiblack, one of the contributors to this amazing tumblr @howtobeaconartist!! That blog’s been a really great resource for starting out at Artist Alleys.

I’m taking this evening to rest up and ship some orders ^^ Then I’ll be back into con-prep mode for Kraken Con!!!

Hope you’re all having a good Monday! ♡ 

EDIT: ALSO!!!! I really enjoyed meeting many of you! To any new followers from Cherry Blossom, feel free to say Hi or chat anytime ~

Tabling at the SF Cherry Blossom Festival today was really fun!! I met a lot of really great, really sweet people. 

Looking forward to going back tomorrow and having another crepe wahahaha

I’ll be tabling at the SF Cherry Blossom Festival this weekend!

Just a reminder. :> 

I’ll be tabling in front of Kinokuniya or downstairs from Kinokuniya, not sure which yet. If you’re going and you want to be updated, follow my Instagram or Twitter. 

This’ll be my first time tabling in SF Japantown. :0 I hope it’s as fun as just plain hanging out there... cause SF Japantown is one of my favorite places to be!! 

Come visit and say hi, if you can!

Assembling and glueing planner pads by hand B:

Can’t wait for CHERRY BLOSSOM FESTIVAL THIS WEEKEND!!!!! I’ll have a table there. Who else is going?

[peahatpost]

PLANNER PADS ARE HERE! !!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I know, I’m terrible at posting progress. I just get so nervous that something will happen to the prints after I post about them! Then I’ll have to embarrass myself by saying “Oops nevermind, I won’t actually have these.”

Now that they’re safe in my house, I feel comfortable with sharing them x3 I’ll be selling them at Northern California Cherry Blossom Festival, Kraken Con, and ASAHi Con.

Any extras will be sold in my shop in May. :3 

They’ll be 8.5x3.6″ tear-away notepads with 26 sheets each, so you can pick two different designs to make a full year! I’ll be working on assembling them all week, so stay tuned for progress photos.
