I Opened an Etsy Store!


News! I opened an Etsy store!


I have been creating clip art for a long time, seven years now. I had stopped for a while thinking that this wasn’t for me. Most of my clip art had a great following, but I still did not put any time into creating any more. It wasn’t until I actually saw my creation used illegally in a teacher's published book that I realized my true worth. This is what convinced me to put more of my stuff up. Now, my hobby is creating clip art in my spare time. I have worked on hundreds of sets so far and think now is the time to market my work in a totally different way.

I’ve actually wanted to open an Etsy store for a while now, but I was not too sure about how Etsy worked, especially for digital products. It’s free to open the shop and very inexpensive to advertise.

Please feel free to visit my store and check out my range of clip art! If you have any clip art ideas that I can make, please leave a comment below! I’m still working on adding the rest of my products. You can follow my progress on my Facebook page or by favoriting my store on Etsy.
