That’s what the Finns call it. Have a great weekend.
Anyone in need of a last minute Valentine’s day card or a Friendship card, you find them as printable downloads on my Etsy here and here.

Weekly Planners without a Plan
New week new motivation. I made more planners and only semi so so followed my plan. Has been a very productive 2 weeks though.
I have been adding more of the weekly planners on my ETSY.
I also finished several 2026 calendars just right in time for February! Check them out here!
Have a great rest of the week!
Everything is fine, I think
Happy New Year! New resolutions there are plenty. Number one is to get better on my time management and to start and finish projects more efficiently.
Number 2 – take a pottery class.
Number 3 – to become fluent in French until the end of the year…. that’s a 25 year mission in the making.
The idea came a little late, but I am currently working on a 2026 calender. Anyone interested in a specific theme? Motivational honey badgers, black humour and aerial foxes are on top of my list.
What’s next?
I have been in a drawing mood lately and thought it is about time to add some new prints to my Etsy shop.
But what should I add?
Let me know in the poll below.
Here is a best off (at least my favourites) of Inktober so far. There are a few more to come.
Happy Easter!
I realized the last post has been a while. I was busy enjoying the sun in the Algarve in Portugal.
Despite the lack of updates on my blog, I have been busy with my Etsy designs and was working on my never ending book project. BUT the end is near and I can hopefully get started on the next adventure one soon!
In the meantime here is a little easter bunny for you.
Download, print, fold, cut and pass it on.

I am all into drawing honey badgers again. If you can be anything, be a honey badger!

Something Something
Yes, I have been busy. Drawing, working, editing illustrations, my first proper commission. So much so that I forgot all about the blog.
Valentine’s day is just around a corner. I prefer Friendship Day, Ystävänpäivä as they call it in Finland. Still missing a card? I put some up on my ETSY Shop.
Oh Crab!
Process is slow, but still process. In between my day job and working on my book I relax by coming up with new Etsy prints. Voila!

Last Minute Printable Christmas cards round 2
Here are some more printable cards I have been designing. Way too late as every year.
Let me know which one is you favourite?
Subscribe to my newsletter and I’ll be sending out another round of printable versions tomorrow, in case you are in need of that last minute Christmas card.
Of course if you like to support my art you can also go to my Etsy for more printable posters and cards 😉
Happy Holidays!
Christmas is around the corner
I am probably the last person to acknowledge it like almost every year. Although I managed to put up decorations and bake Christmas cookies twice! Because I ate most of the first batch…
Beside eating cookies, I played around with some Christmas card designs. As I am too late (as every year) to send a physical card, I’ll opt for digital versions. But you can also print them if you need a last minute card.
If you are not subscribed to my newsletter already, do it and I’ll be sending out a card a day until Christmas for you to download.
Happy Holidays!
More positivity please
Or is that a sarcastic Oui Oui? For me to know and you to find out 🙂
Anyway, just uploaded the print to my Etsy.
Have a great day!
Last but not least
Here is the third blue-footed booby poster of the series….
Do you have any bathroom art at home?
What are you doing?
Yes, what am I doing? For being a professional project manager, my art projects are currently all over the place in different stages of progress….
Instead of focusing on finishing my book, I get distracted by animal drawings and designs for Etsy….
There shall be cake!
Not sure why I am so cake focused. I had delicious baked cheesecake only yesterday! But then again, a good cake is simply a good cake.
If you are looking for a random cake card or a last minute birthday card, you can find it here in my Etsy shop.
I heard there was cake
Have been drawing a bit this week. But the weather was also horrible and I felt like being cozy under the blanket when I had the time. So I just played around with new designs for my Etsy shop.
The result…. a bunch of greeting and birthday cards.
Or maybe I just really wanted to have cake….
Happy weekend!
