December Outfit, French Girl Style.

Hello December!

Happy December everyone, wishing you all a happy and healthy month. This illustration is from my 2023 calendar. It was inspired by the style of some of my favorite Parisiennes. I was lucky enough to visit Paris this November and I have some many illustration ideas. Now I just have to find the time to make them…

You can still get your hands on a copy of my calendar. I promise you, you will enjoy it all of next year! It’s available on Etsy.

Hello December!

Happy first day of December!

December is not my favorite month of the year, but I’ll do my best to make it as cozy as 2020 will let me.

This is from my 2021 wall calendar. Last few copies available in my Etsy shop. 🛒⁠ Take care!

Stay Positive Drink Tea! (Limited Edition Digital Download)

We find ourselves in strange and scary times. That’s why I’m sending you some positive vibes with this “Stay Positive, Drink Tea” print.

I’m offering this on Etsy as a limited edition digital downloadable file (which I normally don’t do) because, like many others, my own situation has changed as a result of recent events. Almost all of the shops that sell my products are closed at the moment. Which means a big loss of income for me. That’s why I’ve decided to temporarily offer this digitally. It’s a super fast and easy way for you to have this image in your house ánd you’re supporting me and my work at the same time. A win win situation, if you ask me. Only 25 available, so don’t wait too long. Your support will be greatly appreciated!

Support Small & Local

Here are some ways to support your favorite (local) small businesses, so that they’ll still be around by the time everything goes back to “normal”. ⁠
See if you can order online, if they deliver or have a take-out option. You can also buy a gift card to spend later. Let them know that you care!⁠ 💚

Artists like me are also small business owners and we need your support as well. Selling my cards in shops is one of my main sources of income. Since most shops are now closed, that means no new card orders. Luckily my Etsy shop is still open as usual and one of the easiest way to support me right now is to place a small (or big!) order. I’ve also installed a donations button on my home page.

Also, if you want to share an artist’s work online: always clearly credit and never edit, and if you’re a company: ask permission first. Thank you! Stay healthy and take care!

Hello December!

Hello December! It’s the last month of the year already, can you believe it!? Wishing everyone a lovely December!⁠
This if from my 2020 calendar. I still have 20% discount on everything in my Etsy shop until December 3th.

Big Etsy Cyber Sale!

I’m participating in Etsy’s Big Cyber Sale! That means from November 26th to December 3th you will get 20% discount on all orders above €10.

Shopping on Etsy during the “Black Friday” week is a great way to support small businesses instead of big corporations. It’s also the perfect place to find original, handmade Holiday gifts, and my shop happens to be filled with them!

Besides my usual collection of postcards, greeting cards and prints I also have my 2020 Wall Calendar still available with a limited stock. And I have a series of Holiday cards with a “Choose 5, pay only 4” special offer. That means 1 FREE card, yay!

SALE details:

From November 26th to December 3th
Minimum order €10
Free shipping on all US orders from $35
Worldwide shipping

Wishing everyone happy shopping and Happy Holidays! x

Just A Card Indie Week SALE!

indie week just a card

Forget black Friday- it’s all about JUST A CARD – INDIE WEEK! A campaign to encourage people to shop independent this year.

This year I didn’t want to participate in a black Friday sale. The whole “madness” around it and the emphasis on just pushing people to consume more and more and more does not appeal to me. We, in the Netherlands, don’t even celebrate Thanksgiving but still over the last few years black Friday sales are EVERYWHERE. Crazy, right? But then I discovered the JUST A CARD – INDIE WEEK. A perfect way to give Holiday season shoppers a nice discount and at the same time support a small business. So from now until November 24th I have 20% discount on everything in my ETSY shop.
