I Love Mew!

♥ ♥ ♥ I made some new kitty designs for Valentine's Day! ♥ ♥ ♥

Please keep in mind the shipping dates.

Button, button, who wants a button?

I've added some cute button pin packs to my Etsy shop! There's a kawaii cupcake, squirrel, squid, robot, and kitty button in each rainbow-themed matching set. I'll be adding more items in the coming days, such as different kinds of stickers, necklaces, and hopefully soon - handmade plushies! ♥

Freebie: Mewki Kitty Paper Toy

The free kitty paper toys are now up on my site to download in pdf format (look under "Gallery")! I hope you like them! There's one with eyes closed and one with eyes open, and both with a surprise at the end...


Now that's sophisticated advertising! XD

Don't let the scary warning in small print put you off - you're free to blog the toys all you want, just make sure you don't hotlink (link directly). Instead, you can point people to the main site:
www.cupcakekawaii.com

Important tip: Print on cardstock! Otherwise, the toy will be really hard to put together and will look "Meh."

I sent a bunch of these to the lovely people at
The Sampler
So some lucky folks may be getting DIY kitty toys as well as a bunch of other neat indie business samples in February!

If you have any trouble with assembling the paper toys, comment here or use my email (in "About"). Blogger has now enabled OpenID commenting, which means you don't need to have a Blogger account to comment. Instead, you can use an account you already have, such as LiveJournal.

Site Updated! Animal Designs Go!

I hope you all had great holidays! Mine were busy but great! The site update took longer than expected (as usual...), but now the animal designs are up! Whoo!

I apologize to anyone who was waiting for the update. I ran into another unexpected set of hurtles. I had forgotten how incredibly difficult Cafepress makes it for shopkeepers to add items to shops, so I had to sacrifice some items and change the pricing structure (hint: look for lower prices on some items!) in order to maintain a decent time frame. That means that the animal design shops contain mostly t-shirts right now, but don't fret - I'll be adding other items on a regular basis. Plus, you can always send me an email to let me know a particular item you'd like me to add.


I was also busy kitty-sitting over the holidays. This adorable little guy to the right has been dubbed Mr. Kitty (since his real name just doesn't suit him!). He was such an attention monster - I just love him! I wish we didn't have to give him back to his owner, but I was glad to have had him for a short time at least - what a great present to find under the tree!
