Panda Peace by hapagirldesigns on Etsy

Panda Peace by hapagirldesigns on Etsy

Whenever I think of Giant Pandas (which are my utmost favorite animal in the world) I think of serenity, peace and calmness. When I saw them at the San Diego Zoo I was so taken by how relaxed they were and in a world where there is so much chaos and "pandemonium" I think back to those carefree pandas at the zoo. Here's my collection of what I consider some unique works of art featuring my beloved Giant Panda.

As a kid who grew up in Hawaii I was surrounded by the ocean and surf. Here's a collection of surfboards, surfing and anything to do with riding the waves! I am so amazed at how many creative fellow Etsians are out there! It was hard to choose!

NEW! Hula Girl Luau Birthday Invitation

I've been wanting to do a hula girl theme for so long and now after almost a week of drawing she makes her debut! I gotta say, it was a challenge. I have so many different versions of her, but this girl was the winner and her name is Lani! Look for a complete party package coming really soon!

Party, Party, Party!

I could really kick myself for not creating printable party packs sooner. Customers have been asking me for over a year now if I made coordinating party decorations to match my invitations. I would turn them down because I really had no means of making the decorations at a reasonable cost. But, then, I had an epiphany when I realized that many people are on a budget and would rather save a few $$ and print and make their own decorations using my designs. Not only would they get a very nice design, but they wouldn't have to break the bank. Nowadays everyone has a color printer. And, boy have those printers come a long way. Even the inexpensive ones print rather good. So, I figured, why not?

I decided to go with my super popular invitation designs and modify t
hem for decorations such as banners, cupcake toppers, gift tags, etc. I am so pleased and excited with how they look. I honestly can't wait for my own kid's bdays to come up so I can make a set.

Below are some of sets that I have made so far.

Today's Best Award - Friendly Farm Animals Birthday Invitation

My neighbor/friend inspired me to design this invitation for her daughter's 5th birthday. I wasn't sure if I could pull something like this off. My usual style is modern, abstract and very simple. But, I came out of my comfort zone and did something a bit different. Quite frankly, I love it. It still offers simplicity, but with a very cute child-like appearance. Perfect for birthdays! Stay tuned as I will be offering the entire printable birthday pack soon!

PRINTABLE Party Pack - Surfing Sea Turtles - Hawaiian Honu

After many inquiries regarding my surfing sea turtles invitation and if I make matching party decorations, favors, etc., I chose to debut Hawaiian Honu Surfing Sea Turtle design as a printable baby shower party pack. This is such an affordable way to get a really awesome looking party theme without breaking the bank. Simply purchase my party pack and you will receive multiple high resolution PDF files to print out on your home color printer or you can take it to a printing shop to do it for you. You can print out as many as you'd like!

My Surfing Sea turtle design is my most popular therefore I chose to use that design as my first party pack. I hope this catches on and certainly I can always custom design or modify my designs for your party needs.

I will be working on more party packs featuring my other popular designs. If there is a design you want turned into a party pack feel free to contact me and I'll work with you.
