  • Spooky Halloween Graphics – Creepy Vintage Baby Dolls

    Not everyone is into Halloween and, to be honest, I’m not especially into it, but my sister is. And, as sisters sometimes do, she has always managed to drag me into her love for all things creepy, spooky, and soul-stirring. Soul-stirring might be too strong of a word since we don’t really like horror movies or things of a bloody nature.

    Our curiosities of the season reside somewhere between Casper the Friendly Ghost and Practical Magic. But anything too terrifying or too serial killer-ish – and we’re out. 

    I usually create some sort of graphics set around ‘Spooky Season’ and this year’s graphics were so much fun to create. Side note: if you’re new to Pink Lemonade Company, one of it’s ‘departments’ is a graphics site, PLC Insiders, where we release new graphics every month. We’ve been going strong since 2017 which feels weird to type since it’s just gone so quickly.

    But, back to the ghouls and goblin graphics (or lack thereof). I decided to create this season’s theme around creepy baby dolls. Cue the slow music box music and eery-sounding swing set creaking. So frightful! Most of my work is heavy-handed in the nature of vintage and this set was no exception. 

    Creepy Vintage Graphics Set

    I find that I make up little stories as I’m designing the graphics and seeing what unfolds. I imagined these old items being uncovered in an old Victorian attic long forgotten. No doubt the cobwebs had to be dusted off, and the smell alone was a bit haunting. Clearly, there was some mystery around the eery, shadowy figures in the photos. And questions to be summoned. The chief question being Who did these little disregarded dolls belong to? And, more so, the answers will never be revealed. Creepy Vintage indeed. But fun nonetheless.

  • Hairdo Lady Collage Sheet Video

    Hi, friends! This was such a fun and easy project to create. You don’t need many supplies or anything too fancy. And it’s something you can do even if you don’t have a lot of time (my kind of creative project!).

    This project was inspired by Amanda Evanston’s Storytime Hairdo tutorial. You can find it in her art membership – Insider’s Studio. This isn’t an affiliate link. I’m just a big fan. She is amazing.

    In the video, I also share some inspiration that I’ve found on Pinterest over the years. (Let’s be Pinterest friends here!).

    I share a basic supply list below the video as well as a link to the collage sheet I used. 

    Here are some of the supplies I used to create this little lady:

    • PLC Printed Collage Sheet or Printed Graphics
    • Scissors
    • Watercolor paper 
    • Mod Podge or Matte Medium
    • Glue Stick
    • Different pens, chalk, and other mark making materials like acrylic ink.
    • Glitter 
    • Tim Holtz Distress Ink or Distress Oxide

    Use what you have at home, add in some different supplies, and just have fun! 

    If you don’t have a home printer, you can always print the PDF collage sheet I use in the video at your local print shop. You can check out what printer I use here.

    Share your work with me by tagging me on Instagram or Facebook. You can also post your work in our big, free Facebook group

  • Garden Party Graphics

    New graphics just in time for this fine Friday. This month’s Digital Box is full of freshly picked flowers, leafy greens, and whimsical garden themed pieces. 

    Members, you’ll find the new graphics on your dashboard now.

    I have been creating my own daily checklist planners lately to add some fun to my day-to-day while getting it all done. I love using the graphics in Insiders to decorate them. I included the planner for you, too, inside PLC Insiders to print out and use for yourself. It’s a PDF file so you could also import into planner software like Goodnotes and use it there.
