Another Tuesday, another episode of my favorite show! I’m loving this season of @schittscreek so far - are you?! _________________________________ I decided to go with a little Rose Apothecary vibe along with the tried and true “Ew David” sweater. I don’t now if it’s “on-brand,” but I do know I had fun making it! ❤️ Check process video to see how I made the final product! I took the sweater design from the last sweater piece I made (see my feed) and the flowers are a design I made forever ago and finally got to give it some purpose! Hope you enjoy! _________________________________ #schittscreekedit #schittscreekpop #womenofillustration #femalemakers #schittscreek #davidrose #steviebudd #alexisrose #poptv #roseapothecary #floraldesign #schittscreek #schittscreekmemes #schittscreeklettering #schittscreekfan #netflixshows #poptv #danlevy #catherineohara #eugenelevy #anniemurphy #tvshowquotes #popcultureart #emilyhampshire #ladieswhodesign #ladymaker #ewdavid #youresimplythebest #simplythebest #poculture @instadanjlevy @olreid @emilyhampshire @annefrances @deucestain @poptv @netflix @frennifer @sarahplevy @karenrobinsonofficial (at Schitt's Creek) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8JzeJrnOm_/?igshid=bx9oauj5mjx3

Has fear or imposter syndrome kept you from doing something? What goals would you be able to achieve if there was NO FEAR? Let me know below! _______________________________________ As you may have seen in my stories, I was featured on @craftyourbrand’s feed last week (she made this lovely graphic, too)! Amy asked me what advice I would give to other creatives and I chose to speak on fear and the hindrance it can be to your creativity and progress. Honestly, I have let it keep me down and avoid doing a lot of things with my life and now, at 36, I’m finally starting to see how much of an impact it’s had on me and my ability to take chances and put myself out there. This year I’m going to be more mindful of when I feel fearful and try to push past it! 🙏 _______________________________________ #quoteoftheday✏️ #foreverbetteringmyself #empowermentquotes #illustration #letteringcommunity #handmade #lettering #perfectlyimperfect #ladyboss #feminist #selfworth #worthy #mentalhealth #positivevibes #selfesteem #creativecommunity #impostersyndrome #nofear #goalgetter #goalsetting #selflove #selflovequotes #selfloveclub #selflovefirst #selflovethread #selflovetips #selflovespo #selfloveiskey #selflovemovement #creativesofinstagram (at Sacramento, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B71me-4nmDT/?igshid=ts4b5fupw6yh

...just in case you needed to hear it today! 😘 _______________________________________ Leslie Knope is the best conveyer of compliments and affirmations, don’t you think? If only we were as ready to compliment ourselves and others as Leslie is! It’s always harder to think of the good than the bad around us (it’s human nature), but I’m trying to make a concerted effort to be more positive. It may not always happen (just ask my husband, lol ), but during this time of year, it’s necessary to keep myself in the right mindset. I’m trying to be nice to myself and those around me, but also stick up for myself and not take things so personally. It’s a fine balance, but I’m here for it! If you’re struggling with this too, know that we are this together! ❤️ _______________________________________ #brushlettering #typography #motivation #handlettering #illustration #letteringchallenge #handletteringpractice #ipadlettering #dailyaffirmations #procreate #compliment #selflove #selflovequotes #popculture #letteringpractice #handmade #positiveaffirmations #parksandrecedits #typographydesignersclub #calligraphy #50words #parksandrecreation #parksandrec #leslieknope #amypohler #ronswanson #strongwomen #selfcaredaily #dailymotivation @nbcparksandrec (at Sacramento, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7w6F_sHY9q/?igshid=qwgvbt03nyob

This one was fun! I decided to do the #toonmechallenge mainly because I’m bored and wanted something more fun/mindless to work on. And I can’t very well tout self love and body positivity on my feed without sharing my own face on it as well! 🥰 _________________________________ This year, a goal that I have is to work on my confidence in terms of my creativity, personally and professionally. I’m hoping to say peace out to the imposter syndrome, and unleash the fierce, badass creative inside! ✍🏼 _________________________________ #visualcreative #graphicdesigner #selflovetips #selflovethreads #selfloveclub #selflovefirst #selflovequotes #selflovejourney #selflovematters #selflove❤️ #selflovemovement #selfloveisthebestlove #fiercewomen #fiercefemale #fiercefemales #thefutureisfemale #femaleempowerment #femaleentrepreneur #typingfeminism #ladieswhodesign #feministartist #femwinism #meettheartist #fridayintroductions #selfloveart #ladieswhodraw #lifeofacreative #introductionfriday #introduceyourself (at Sacramento, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7tk6YJnZNk/?igshid=12pi9x4b1nkcd

Here’s my Mama’s recipe for Macaroni Pie (aka the Holy Grail of Yumminess) for those who asked for it from my last post. Don’t say I never did anything for ya! 😚 _________________________________ There’s also a bit of the process video posted as well in case you’re interested in how I ended up with my finished piece!

You guys, this is why I create - to share a little bit of happiness with others! This is my grandma (I call her Mama - my family is from the South) with a few prints I had made for her for Christmas. The first one is very special because it’s a recreation of her recipe for Macaroni Pie that she’s handed down to us. It’s such a staple in our family now that I had to pay homage to it and her! Doesn’t she look so cute?! I’m so glad that I can make things that put smiles on peoples’ faces or that just resonate with them. ❤️ _________________________________ #recipeart #familyheirloom #familyheirlooms #heirloomart #creatememories #createhappiness #creativelifehappylife #creativecommunity #whyicreate #artistlife #createlove #photoshootfun #creativegift #creativegiftideas #familytradition #macaronipie #macaroniandcheese #artistlifestyle #artistlove #myreason #myreasonwhy #southernfood #southernstyle #lettering #letteringwithpositivity #letteringwithlove #letteringwithpurpose #letteringartist (at Sacramento, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7jSlwEHmYM/?igshid=9n22cdg43vr7

...everything else is just gathering information.” -Jen Sincero _________________________________ I’ve had to apply this quote (and frankly, @jensincero’s entire book) to my creative journey lately. My fear and insecurity has been keeping me from fully realizing my dream of being a maker/business owner alongside my artistic endeavors. But, even taking the small strides that I have been lately (I will share those with you soon!) has taught me that trial and error is so much better than just not doing it or quitting! So, I guess the point of my Ted Talk today is to empower those like me who are letting fear or imposter syndrome stop them from dreaming big! Gather that intel, do your thing, try and try again, just don’t quit! You got this - I got this - we all got this! ❤️ _________________________________ #selflovetips #selflovethreads #creativelife #selflovefirst #selflovequotes #selflovejourney #selflovematters #selflovemovement #selfloveisthebestlove #mentalhealthquotes #impostersyndrome #mentalhealthwarrior #mentalhealthisimportant #mentalhealthrecovery #mentalhealthadvocacy #letteringadventures #liveauthentically #handlettering #empoweringquotes #loveyourself #girlpower #jensincero #dontquityourdaydream #neverstopdreaming #creativesofinstagram #womenempowerment #empowermentquotes #ladieswhodesign #selfloveclub #youreabadass (at Sacramento, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7bm8ytnt3L/?igshid=19m74cvo6hb0c

Today is THE day, my friends! The first episode of the last season of Schitt’s Creek. I don’t know if my little heart can handle it! 💔 I just thought I should create something to memorialize this truly momentous occasion (read that last bit in Moira’s voice). 😆 _________________________________ Who is your favorite character from the show?

Which color scheme would you prefer to see on merchandise? 1️⃣2️⃣3️⃣4️⃣ or 5️⃣? _________________________________ Sometimes I like to make pretty things that also showcase my truest, introverted self. 🐝 Hopefully this resonates with my fellow socially awkward introverts too! I’d really love to see this design on a shirt, tote, or some stickers! If you would too, you can check out my Redbubble store - I uploaded a version of this piece there.

What are some goals that you have made for yourself for 2020? ____________________________________________ I made a vision board for the new year last week with @estheticianlife_fabs. I wanted to share it with the world to hold myself accountable! Here are my main goals: ____________________________________________ • Take my creative journey to the next level and open up a shop. Also, be more confident in my creative abilities and be able to articulate that to others and myself! • Be healthy and go to the gym to keep myself strong and confident. • Go on a big vacation with my husband. • Be more happy and content; try to find the good in all situations. • Save some money. ____________________________________________ So, here’s to a new year AND a whole new decade! May yours be positive, productive and find you happier and healthier than ever. ❤️ ____________________________________________ #yearofyou #partylikeits2020 #newyearsresolutions2020 #newyearsevecountdown #newyears2020 #newdecadenewyou #newdecade2020 #thisisthenewyear #cheerstothenewyear #2020 #mentalhealthquotes #mentalhealthsupport #mentalhealthtips #mentalhealthwarrior #mentalhealthisimportant #mentalhealthday #mentalhealthrecovery #mentalhealthcare #mentalhealthadvocacy #selfcarepage #selfcarelove #selfcareaccount #selfcaresis #selfcarefirst #selfcareday #selfcaredaily #goalsetting #goalsetting2020 #goalgetter #visionboard (at Sacramento, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6t_6L9HKZs/?igshid=1twc42nr706kk
