Sea Turtle Design Gets an Official Name: "Happy Honu"

I am officially renaming my super popular sea turtle design to "Happy Honu". For those non-Hawaii folks, Honu in Hawaiian means sea turtle. I felt that my design needed a name for copyright purposes which is underway. Like I mentioned before in a previous blog I never did expect this design to be so well received by people across the world. But, it is rather a universal image so it makes sense now that so many people from different walks of life love this design.

I have used "Happy Honu" on many different mediums such as blankets, pillows, quilts, prints, cards, and clothing.

I have 2 versions of "Happy Honu" now. One is my original design of the green sea turtle with circles design on the shell. The other is of the green sea turtle with an abstract design of Earth on its shell in honor of Earth Day and saving the planet all day every day.

For the history of this design visit my previous post.

Panda to Pandemonium


When I was expecting my first baby I knew instantly that I wanted Panda Bears to be his nursery room theme. I started searching almost the instant I found out it was a boy although I figured I would have probably done the Panda Bear theme if the baby was girl too. In any case, I searched and searched but to my dismay I couldn't find any kind of Panda nursery bedding, decor or baby accessories anywhere. We are talking only 4 years ago too! I was very discouraged. So, I decided to design my own room and make and collect Panda decor on my own whether it was from a baby store or not. In fact, I didn't buy anything from a baby store regarding Panda decor. I made a few of the bedding pieces and the wall art I found on Ebay as prints and I had framed myself. The mobile I found on another website. It was fun gathering everything although a bit exhausting trying to get a room together from scratch.

Now, 4 years later it's a pandemonium of Panda Bear accessories and decor for baby rooms. I think the love of Panda Bears has caught on finally. Of course, I feel like one of the original Panda Bear lovers. I've loved them since I was 7 years old when I first saw them in person at the Ueno Zoo in Japan. My Mom bought me a life-like plush Panda Bear and I had that toy for years until the bear finally fell a part in my teen years. Perhaps its been the birth of Taishan at the National Zoo in DC that has brought more awareness. All in all, it's awesome that more people are discovering these wonderful creatures to be one of the world's most precious animals!

My Panda Bear design is the 2nd animal that I designed when I first started my business. It's popularity has been phenomenal and I have been honored to have donated some of my items to charity for silent auctions.

Boy, Girl, Unknown? I Design a Wide Range of Baby Shower Invitations

































When I was pregnant with both my son's I knew from the beginning of both pregnancies that I wanted to know if they were going to be a boy or girl. From the moment I found out I started planning the nurseries, buying clothes and thinking of names. BUT, there are those that don't want to know. Let's just face it, some people like the element of surprise. I can totally respect that and whatever works for you that should be the way it should be. Therefore, I like to design and offer a wide range of baby shower invitations for those that know and for those that don't know. My standard designs are simple and the color schemes vary from blues, pinks, greens, purple, yellow or whatever color scheme YOU want. Yes, I can modify any of my standard designs to fit YOUR color scheme.

All of my card design listings are for a digital file which you will receive from me to take and have printed at any photo finisher such as Costco.com, Snapfish.com, or Walmart. However, if you want me to print for that can certainly be done and I can quote pricing. Anything is possible!
