I have been very busy working on some fun theme sets to add to my little shop at MyGraficO — a ‘Magic Happens’ set with witch and wizard teddy bears, magician’s hats, wands, and white rabbits…a ‘Back to School’ set with a bus, chalkboard, cute stick figures and school supplies…and a unique ‘Seafood Boil’ set inspired by Megan at the MyGraficO community. That set is my new favorite! It includes a cute lobster and crab, cooker pot, utensils and fixin’s!

…and of course, each of these sets have matching digital stamp sets that you can purchase separately if you’re feeling creative. Just print out, color, and embellish.

The Back to School set and Magic Happens set includes my first pieces of word art ever incorporated into my MyGraficO sets. I hope to be able to create more word art for future sets, and to perhaps give some away as freebies here. Who knows!

If you have any ideas for things you would like to see me design, please feel free to leave a comment or contact me! I would love to hear your thoughts. Have a lovely week.

MyGraficO has re-opened! I am so excited. All of the talented designers there are working on re-uploading their image files so not all previous products will be readily available, but I’m sure they will be added soon. There is a huge selection already up though, so be sure to check it out!

As for my little shop there, I have three new clip art sets and matching stamp sets… ‘Magic Happens’, ‘Back to School’, and my previously mentioned ‘Seafood Boil’ set too! I had a lot of fun designing them. I will post them here as soon as possible for you to see, along with some fun creative ideas for you. Until then, have a lovely weekend!

I recently completed a 300×150 ad banner commissioned to me by Amber McLeod on behalf of ‘Tiny Tots With Style’.

Please contact me if you are interested in Banner Design.

As I showed you recently, I have a ‘magic’ theme set completed and ready to be posted at MyGraficO once they are finished with shop updates. I can’t wait! I edited the set a bit, and I’m happy with how it turned out. It’s perfect for Harry Potter lovers and all other magic enthusiasts…like me.

As I type this, I am sketching another set. A seafood boil theme! Who knew? This is the first time I’ve really looked at crabs and lobsters for the sake of drawing them, and it’s a LOT of fun. I can’t wait to finish it. This set was inspired by a gal at the MyGraficO community. How unique!

I also have a few other sets I would like to finish soon, including a Winter Wonderland one with some cute characters and cozy things. I am really looking forward to sharing them with you.

My goal is to get some crafting supplies so that I can make a few crafts with these sets! I think it would be so much fun. I haven’t sat down to do paper crafts in so long.

Have a great week and weekend! I hope to have a couple little previews to show you soon.

The wonderful ladies at MyGraficO.com have said that they are going to take this momentary site outage as an opportunity to upgrade the site and start fresh. I am very excited! I will be re-uploading my sets there as soon as possible, double-checking for image quality and making sure that this fresh start is going to be the best ever. I have more sets I’m planning (I’m also taking this opportunity to do some things, namely prepare for this year’s homeschooling), and I already have a new set ready to add.

Here’s a sneak preview…I won’t have it available to purchase until MyGraficO is back up around September. So keep your eyes peeled! You’d better believe I’m going to announce MyGraficO’s return. :)

Have a lovely Friday eve!

Some of you may have noticed that the links to my Meljen’s Designs clip art shop at MyGraficO.com have appeared to be broken lately. There is a problem going on at their host’s end, and they’re working to fix it as soon as possible. I’ll keep you updated. :) In the mean time, enjoy your stay here and have a wonderful week until I see you again. I do have a new clip art set and a matching digital stamp set I am planning on getting posted as soon as possible! Keep your eyes peeled for that.

Have a lovely day!
