I think your animal drawings are the best– and you could see them in lines of greeting cards, frameable prints, stationary, blog headers, or if you want to go into textiles: on babies’ one-z’s (or whatever those things are called, bibs, aprons, tea-towels.

What about monogram stationery with all the alphabet letters on them. The generic gift that still looks custom! Or downloadable invitation suites people could purchase and print themselves.

I think your designs would work well on baby bibs or onesies. I’d definitely buy one for my niece. I also like the “this is what love looks like” graphic.

I like the idea of calendars or planners. You could do cute illustrations for holidays, instead of just writing, “Christmas Day” in the box like most calendars/planners.

I’d love some Stinkerpants notepads and sets of Thank You cards. I’m still stuck on stationery, though… having a hard time coming up with non-stationery items. I would wear a “this is what love looks like” t-shirt all the time, I’m sure of it! What about waterproof stickers that I can put on my water bottle or laptop cover?

I love the idea of stationery. You could even do a line of monogram stationery using the alphabet letters you’ve already illustrated.

I’m also a huge fan/hoarder of blank cards (designs or illustrations on the outside, nothing on the inside). They’re so useful to have on hand for any occasion, and since they’ll be completely blank inside, you could illustrate the outside with whatever tickles your fancy. No clever phrasing needed.

What about stationery sets – notecards, letter paper, memos/post-it notes? I really like the cityscape backgrounds you have in some of your custom work (e.g. the Golden Gate Bridge for SF couples), so a few variations of generic couples against backgrounds featuring different cities might be cute.

I agree with every other comment! Doing something like boxed notecards would be perfect (Thank you notes, blank monogram cards, blank animal cards). I also love your backgrounds… maybe some blank cards with cityscapes (San Fran, New York, DC, Austin, Seattle, etc).

Maybe you could do half custom, half not … like, create a site where users could pick a completed drawing and then put the drawing onto whatever medium they want (notecards, stationary, envelopes, picture to hang in their home, etc)

Hope this helps :)

I covet your Alphabet poster for the nursery that doesn’t yet exist, for my children who won’t be born for years. :-D
Therefore, I agree with everyone who says you should consider children’s books. I also wonder if you could do more prints and posters…

This is exciting!

I love the idea of doing monogram stationary… you could do notepads, To Do lists and Grocery lists w/ magnets on the back.

I loved your ABC cards/images, and I wonder if you could do any more with them, since you’ve already done the drawings? I could imagine lots of cute stores near me carrying products with those images or images like them.

I love these ideas! I’d totally buy a cute baby tee with a witty comment on it. I love the baby onsies idea. I’d also love:
1. A pack of thank you cards with multiple designs.
2. City-personalized items. Like a SF tee with the SF skyline. Or a print of different skylines large enough to hang in a house.

So many things you can do! :)

I think your animal drawings would be really cute as vinyl wall graphics for kids rooms.

I would love more diversity in your greeting cards! I have a black friend who is gay, and I know she just bought a ring propose to her girlfriend, I would LOVE to see a “Congratulations on your Engagement” card featuring two women of color! There is a big market for gay weddings (despite the whole prop 8 mess passing), I think that would be a great gap to fill!
