Mismatched flip flop fashion

Posted on by ssdp0d

I am one of those people who believes matching is highly overrated. At least when it comes to socks and other opportunities for whimsy.

I’ve found it difficult in designing flip-flops to come up with something unique that anyone would be willing to pay for a custom pair for. (I do have lots that are in my various sports pattern. Not a lot of cheer, volleyball or lacrosse flip flops already out there.)

That is, until I hit upon ways to take my current graphics and make sets that coordinate but don’t match. Extra fun!!!

I got into a rhythm so they pretty much all have a pattern of some sort on the right shoe. The left shoe incorporates some element from the pattern or a coordinating image and the ability to personalize with your name. It was a great way to use some of my lovely patterns that hadn’t found a good home yet.

There are a couple Texas specific designs like the blue gingham ones at the top of this post. The dotted pattern one comes in several different color options and you can even go in to change the background on the left shoe if you prefer a different color out of the pattern.

Texas Bride in Boots Shower Invitations

Posted on by ssdp0d

There is no occasion in Texas too formal for cowboy boots.

Seriously. People wear them to everything.

And weddings are no exception, even for the bride!!

It’s a typical Texas thing for the bride to wear boots, so I’ve drafted up some bridal shower invitations that highlight that very, very Texan thing.

Currently, I have four different images featured in these designs. Two are horizontal, two are vertical. All focus on the boots the bride is sporting and are watercolor images.

The one you see here is a bride seated on an ottoman or stool with her obviously worn brown boots displayed. The others include a bride posing out by a fence, which I have further rusticated with a filter, a set of rhinestone boots and a bride showing some sass outside with her boots and bouquet.

I have flat note card invitations, which are great if you’re planning to send other items with the invite, as well as simple postcards that will save you money.

The shower invitations include space for registration, RSVP and host names along with the party details. (And I’ve been adding additional items you can use for the shower such as napkins, plates, posters, gift bags, etc.)

Texas Halloween House Decoration

Posted on by ssdp0d

I know, I know. It’s August. How the heck could I already be thinking about Halloween?

Well, I’m not necessarily, but as I’m seeing more and more of my Halloween designs showing up in searches, I figure you are. 🙂

I developed some cute Texas Halloween designs last year – one witchy, one ghost and two pumpkins – that were received well. I’m working on some new ones for this year, but not sure when they’ll be ready.

And since last Halloween, Zazzle has added some new options to help you decorate your house for any holiday. My favorite is the house flag pictured above. Gorgeous large option that will really stand out on your block.

The other two are smaller and require hardware for standing in your yard. But once you buy it for one sign, you might be able to use it for every season and just change out the flag or board. Anyway, they’re a smaller garden flag and a sign like you see for elections or businesses.

All allow for you to personalize with your family name or other message.

A note on the angry Jack o’lantern. I’ve used a graphic there that allows you to customize the colors as you like. So if you want an orange pumpkin on a black background or a lime green and yellow combo (please don’t!), you can do that.

Magnetic notepads for fridge lists

Posted on by ssdp0d

I love to make lists. Seriously, it’s a highlight of my day!

And of course, the most common list I make is a shopping list, mostly for food stuff.

Which is why a notepad right on the fridge is such a great idea. You can write down what you need right when you’re thinking about it. (I’d say you and your family/roommates/etc. except we all know they never do it.)

These magnetic notepads are relatively new at Zazzle. They’re a long thin style at 4.25″ wide and 9″ long. They have 40 pages with a chipboard and magnet backer.

You’ll note I have some radically different designs going on here, but I realized the thing they have in common is they’re all pretty darned girly in style. Not sure if that reflects my personal taste or a subconscious idea that men aren’t into lists and notepads.

Some of these have lines and spaces for checking things off. Definitely built with a checklist or shopping list in mind. The others are more flexible, making them great for phone messages or notes to the family.

The only thing I’m not a fan of with these is you can’t get them without the magnet. I like the long skinny size because it takes up less space on my desk, but plain isn’t an option at the moment.

Brush Stroke Class of 2021 Car Flags

Posted on by ssdp0d

Car flags became hugely popular when we all realized in person graduation ceremonies were unlikely to happen.

The desire to still celebrate your graduate and their accomplishments fueled the drive-by party and just a need to proclaim their accomplishment far and wide.

While I have some that feature pictures, the most popular by far was this cool brush stroke designs in school colors. For 2020, of course. But I’ve gotten ready for the upcoming school year for the class of 2021.

I have them in most of the common school colors with a few with black backgrounds to help the lighter colors stand out better. You can get into the design tool to change the colors up if you like.

(Note that this isn’t a design that you can customize in terms of changing the year. But I do already have them for the class of 2022 if that’s what you need. Working on more years soon!)

The flags are super light, but made with heavy duty double-ply fabric. Attaches to your car with a plastic clip.

Create your travel bucket list

Posted on by ssdp0d

When my niece asked me to go with her on a school trip, I didn’t even ask where we were going. My philosophy is (was) that if I need a passport to get there, I’m ready to go.

(I’ve since changed my tune because as you get older, the strains of traveling in some parts of the world become just a bit more than I can handle. I’m looking at you, squat toilets.)

I’ve been to 24 different countries and still have a ton of places on my bucket list I’m eagerly looking forward to seeing. A few are on the design I’m featuring today!

This colorful travel bucket list is customizable to reflect the places you want to visit. The length of the list varies with the items the design is on. (You can get a ton of places on that suitcase!) And if you want, you can get into the design tool and change the color of the planes and lines as well.

It’s pictured on a passport holder above – totally appropriate – but also on a notebook you could use as a travel journal or bags to use to tote on the plane.

Seniors Seniors Seniors stickers

Posted on by ssdp0d

As we head back to school, stickers are a great option for decorating up your notebooks, binders, lockers and lunchboxes.

I’ve taken my SENIORS design and created a set of stickers in the various school colors that can be applied just about anywhere you like.

The stickers come on one sheet and you can choose from five sizes of sheet from 3″ square to 14″ square. I have five stickers per sheet. On the smallest size, the bigger stickers are 1.25″ wide, while the smaller stickers are about .75″ wide. Each are just a bit taller than that. As you choose a larger size sheet, the stickers will get bigger.

The material for the stickers is available in glossy transparent – as shown above – and matte white as shown to the right here. They’re cut to the shape of the image and are easily removable when the time comes.

Available in most of the 14 school colors I design in. Note that lighter colors will do better printed on the white than the transparent. And you can go in to the design too to change up the sticker colors as you like. So you can make some red and some black, for instance.

Senior Class Of 2021 Shirts

Posted on by ssdp0d

I have a ton – a ton!! – of different designs for class of 2021 shirts. Most are like the ones you see here where you can customize the year to whatever works for you.

These here are specifically for the last year of school since they include the word senior and a graduation cap. (But I have others that will work for incoming freshmen or sophomores!)

This particular design combines some script and printed fonts for a bold look. You can personalize the design with the year and the school name. Or make that your name if you like. It’s all up to you.

The look comes in a version with a black base suitable for light-colored shirts like the white one above. It comes in the standard list of school like green, red, purple, orange, blue and so forth. The one with the white base for dark shirts comes in gold, silver, pale gray and powder blue.

If you want, you have the option to go into the design tool at Zazzle and customize the colors however you like. Or contact me to make a special request.

Lacrosse neck ties in fun patterns

Posted on by ssdp0d

Neck ties make great gifts, right? And if you’re gifting a coach or lacrosse fan, a tie with a lacrosse pattern on it makes even more sense.

I’ve taken the various patterns I’ve created for lacrosse and applied them to ties at Zazzle.

There are colorful patterns like the one shown at the top here involving stripes and lacrosse sticks. That particular pattern comes in four different color options, including neon pink!

If you’re less interested in fun patterns, check out the simple school color option. It’s a repeating pattern of white lacrosse sticks with a faint stripe in the background. It comes in a ton of different school colors and if you can’t find yours, you can go in and change the background to what you need.

Since it’s a school color, it’s a great choice for a team coach or for the entire team to wear when they head out to away games. (If your school requires the team to dress up. Do they still do that?

The ties are polyester fabric and can be printed on both sides. There’s a small upcharge for the printing on the back, but to me it’s well worth it as otherwise it’s left white and that just doesn’t work most of the time.
