This is it! The very last day to order from my shops. Bittersweet doesn’t even begin to describe what I’m feeling. ❤️‍🩹

I have really valued each and every customer who purchased from me and sent me heartfelt messages and shared how much my work had meant to them. 🥹 I’ll be throwing some extra goodies in with all remaining orders.

I will always cherish the years that I poured myself into my work. And now on to the next daring adventure!

Dear everyone, thank you for all your orders! It really fills me with so much gratitude. I have a lot of inventory and I’m glad that some of it will be making its way towards you 😘

It’s going to be hard to leave all of it behind. 💔 I’ve been reveling in the beauty of what I’ve made over the years, appreciating how it’s changed, how I’ve improved. I love all of it for what it has represented at different stages of my life. Sigh, it’s so bittersweet.

There are 3 more days that you can place orders and then I’m closing the doors on my business for good!

Again, thank you all for your love, support, your stories and your well wishes.

Well, hello! It’s been a looooong time. And I’m popping in with some news that might bum a few of you out. I’m stepping away from Little Canoe indefinitely. I’ve lost my desire to run this shop. It’s been a long time coming, it just took me awhile to wrap my mind around it. I just haven’t made a profit in such a very long time. I’ve found full time work and that will be my primary focus.

I will still take design work, but I’m closing both shops. So now until July 22nd will be your last chance to get anything Little Canoe! So place your orders now!

Thank you all for your support over the years. I have cherished this time so much. But now my creative juices will be directed towards something new. ❤️

Making this card was so much fun! A chunky brown bear and a colorful salmon, an unlikely pair. 😏

Opposites attract, as they say. Hard to tell exactly how the salmons feels about all of this…

This card is now up in my shop and ready for your special Valentine. Just click the shop link!

Get your sweetheart or special friend a card soon before it’s too late! 💘

Don’t mind me as I keep reminiscing over here leading up to Valentine’s Day! Truthfully, love cards are my favorite to make. What can I say, I’m a romantic. 🥰

I can’t believe I completed this artwork in 2014, 9 years ago! Some pieces just never age.

This is the illustration people like to talk to me the most about. Everyone who’s bought this in a card or print form in the past has a tale to tell about it. And I love how much it speaks to people. Sometimes I consider doing an updated version and sometimes I think “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!” But I do think it would be nice to make some new versions to incorporate same-sex couples.
What do you think?

I was packing up this card for a customer today and just had to marvel at this bestselling item. It truly is one of my favorites. I’ve sold 671 of these cards on Etsy alone! Then add in my other shop and the countless wholesale orders I’ve packed that’ve included this card. It’s fun to think about the distance this little image has traveled. To think of the recipients who opened it and saw it’s loving message “I’m so glad we both ended up here.”

With Valentine’s Day kinda almost around the corner, it’s never too early to find the perfect card for that special person in your life. But this doesn’t have to be a romantic card. It’s really perfect for anyone who magically stepped into your life. Anyone you’re grateful for. I can think of a few 😘

Two super fun new products now available for retail and wholesale! The Running Springs sticker, made of durable waterproof vinyl and the flexible San Bernardino Mountains refrigerator magnet! I love my home and can’t seem to stop making drawings that clearly illustrate that love. Click the image to find the products in my shop!

These cozy raccoons want to wish you all a Happy New Year!!

I don’t know about you, but I’m beyond ready for a reset. This has been the hardest year for my business ever. I pray that in 2023 I can find a way to break through the noise on this app to finally reach my audience again. I hope I can find ways to reach new customers too. I just hope hope hope for a more successful year in 2023. 🤞🏻

Thanks so much to those who have continued to support my work, I appreciate you so much! 🥹❤️

Happy holidays to everyone who celebrates! I’ve been spending mine with family and friends in Portland. ❤️ But I’ll be California-bound in a couple short days, back to my little home on the hill.

Hope you all have a joyful day. Merry Christmas!

Remaking old Christmas cards, watching movies by the fire and baking cookies. That was my week. How was yours?

I have a plan to remake some of my faves from years past in my new style (like this one) and discontinue many of the cards that don’t sell as well. I’ll also be finally closing my Etsy shop next year to focus on directing business to my website. Much to come at little canoe!!

Hope you’re all having s lovely holiday season.
