Creating A Living Doll

This is another piece I did during my 3rd quarter in grad school. It was the first piece I created completely from scratch in Illustrator. I'm pretty dang proud of it! I had to create an infographic poster, so I decided to do mine on child pageants after  marathoning a bunch of Toddlers & Tiaras.

Book Fair!

I looooved when the Scholastic Book Fair would come to my school when I was younger. I would obsess over the catalog they gave to us prior so that I knew exactly what I wanted when the fair came.  I would always make sure I picked up a bookmark/pencil/eraser when I was in there too--it was just fantastic.

So when I saw Kate from Scathingly Brilliant had created an Etsy shop devoted to this wonderful memory, I was pretty excited!

 

In her new shop, called The Book Fair, you can buy a book fair  kit that includes:

- A fruit scented pop-a-point pencil
- A rainbow eraser
- Three bookmarks
- A handmade button with stickers
- A handmade reading list booklet
- A hand-stamped canvas carrying case
- A 1980's or 1990's paperback selected at random

I really want to get one for myself!

I love the illustration she made just for this--you can also get the illustration as a print, button, or bookplate. She even has some Judy Blume and Beverly Cleary books up there...I'm just sayin'. ;)
