Winter Jam - February Sticker Sheet ☕️💭

Added 2020-02-22 19:19:56 +0000 UTC

Hello!

I'm so excited to share my first Patreon reward: Winter Jam Sticker Sheet! I've gone through several ideas on what I wanted my first theme to be (ex. imps with flowers, fairies, make-up theme) ...there were just so many possibilities! After spending several nights huddled in a blanket with my IPad, I realized I just wanted to be cozy, so my sticker sheet should be cozy too!

I had this idea of a little field mouse who enjoys making cookies with her owner. Today she's making her favorite pastry: linzer cookies with lingonberry jam filling! I'd like to imagine that she has her own little wooden spoon that she uses to fill the cookies. As the cookies bake in the oven, she likes to create hanging tags, which she later uses to package her gift of cookies to her friends. Her favorite part of baking is how sweet and warm the room smells after it's all done!

This was my first sticker sheet that I've designed and printed. Initially, I didn't realize that there's so much to consider when creating one. Like "what kind of story/feeling I want to create? what will the layout look like? What size is every sticker going to be in relation to each other? What about the backing and packaging???" I have so much to learn still and it's still far from perfect, but that's all part of the artist's journey.

Thank you for being a part of this journey with me! I hope you'll enjoy my future projects and progress throughout 2020.
