Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays,
I'm working on a new mini book that will hopefully blow you out of the water...but for now, enjoy your holiday breaks, and I'll catch you all in the new year!

Stereohype Buttons!

I just got some samples in the mail: this is my set of 3 buttons that won third prize in the Stereohype button contest this year! Check em out here.

I'm also completely smitten with the set illustrator Shen Plum designed
and won first prize last year for.

Last weekend I got the opportunity to work with TOMS shoes again for a style your sole event here in Portland. Above are some of my favorites from the day.

Holiday Illustrations

I just finished up this custom holiday "card" illustration for a wonderful family. I know I posted about custom illustrations before, if you're interested in getting one done for the holidays there's still a little time left. Send me an email if you'd like to know more.

Women's Weekly Australia

Here's an illustration I did recently for Women's Weekly Australia. I haven't gotten the chance to see it in print yet. If you're an Aussie and see the issue with this in it on the newsstand let me know! I'll buy a copy from you and probably send you nice things in the mail too.

TOMS Shoes Event >> Awesome

The TOMS shoes event this weekend was AWESOME! Such a wonderful turnout, and tons of great requests. These are photos of a few of the TOMS I drew on. {metallic does not photograph, but those elephants are shimmery silver :) }

W/Heart, a Textile Collection

{yes, that is nutella toast with rainbow sprinkles}

{it's finally here!}

{mid photo shoot}

{the three pillows from the collection}

So I mentioned a while back a massive textile project I'd taken on. This is it! I'm so glad to finally be able to share it with you all. I named the collection W/heart {with heart}, it's composed of very limited edition eco-friendy homeware pieces. Each piece is hand printed by me with water based inks on locally bought 100% organic cotton.

TOMS shoes event in PDX

Very exciting news! This Saturday I'll be armed with paint pens and markers doing custom drawings on TOMS shoes at the Nordtrom in Lloyd Center (Portland, OR) from 1-4pm. You should stop by!

About TOMS: TOMS shoes was founded on a simple premise: With every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of new shoes to a child in need, one for one.

Greeting Cards

I've posted some new items in the shop, including 2 greeting card designs. They're 4x5" on cotton paper.

Custom Illustrations

It seems a bit silly to already be designing holiday cards, but it's right around the corner. Last year I did a few custom illustration commissions for Christmas cards / prints which were tons of fun. Above is one of my favorites. If you're interested in having a custom illustration done, send me an email (bos.jacqueline@gmail.com)!

MySpace Theme Launch (!!!)

{my myspace}

Ok, so a while back MySpace commissioned me to design a background for their new platform, and it's finally launched! I've been dying to tell everyone about this, but today is the day I can for real! Above is the link to my myspace profile where you can check out the theme in action, and if you have a MySpace page, upgrade to the new platform and try it out! I'm really excited with how everything came together so nicely, thanks MySpace team!

{Here's the theme link}

hello all, it was a busy weekend at the zine fair, many thanks to all who came out.
A busy week approaches, here's a new piece!

the PDX Zine Symposium is this weekend

10AM-5PM Sat and 10AM-4PM Sun!
I'll have all my mini books + zines, plus some limited edition screen prints, 1" buttons and some screen printed zine sized totes to carry all your goodies home. Come by and say hello!

Polyvore is....wow

Polyvore is....super confusing. Being that I am a trained graphic designer, it's probably super sad that I cannot figure out how to work this site! I registered for an account, and then spent about 2 hours trying to "clip to polyvore" and failed miserably. I could end up spending all day making one silly collage, and so instead, I pilfered this one from the web :)
I had trouble sleeping last night and rewatched a bunch of episodes from the first season of Skins, so here's a silly collage about Cassie, who I think is my favorite character along with Sid. And also, how cute is that horse tank? Very cute.

Lavender-Grey Spotted Bunny Screen Prints

Lavender-Grey Spotted Bunny screen prints in the shop. Edition of 7, printed by me on 100% cotton cream printmaking paper. Each print is signed and numbered. A5 size.

hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
