I started with a long list of common emotions and whittled it down to the ones I felt I could really convey with facial AND limited upper body expression.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDEYNi8NkhxZZPOSkFE97wXohTjJBcxzgCM5tiMyxJNcxtU9F37-sTickqZhvUzdbIdEp6YkZjn1IIeIWtagkWbNTokTE-ASV6f2rpMVxmPhFqcQXlfJGm4AYMk8CZi6DNEKuyARqRnAU/s1600/SP064_Emotions_PIN.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDEYNi8NkhxZZPOSkFE97wXohTjJBcxzgCM5tiMyxJNcxtU9F37-sTickqZhvUzdbIdEp6YkZjn1IIeIWtagkWbNTokTE-ASV6f2rpMVxmPhFqcQXlfJGm4AYMk8CZi6DNEKuyARqRnAU/s640/SP064_Emotions_PIN.png" title="Emotions Clip Art by Sarah Pecorino" width="426" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
I kept these final 16 emotions to upper body images to help focus in on the expression and ended up creating a boy and girl version of each one, so 32 unique characters in all.<br />
<br />
I have seen some really creative uses of these characters, not just on emotions themed projects. I like to drop a kid or two into an <a href="https://www.instagram.com/sarahpecorino/" target="_blank">Instagram</a> post to keep things fun and light.<br />
<br />
I love them all, but this one confused girl is my favorite...<br />

I spent probably way too much time choosing the right real life object for each shape. My 6 year old was very involved the development process. Thanks to my studio helper I think these sets came out pretty nice!<br />
<br />
There are 6 sets total (as of right now). They're listed individually and as a bundle.<br />

This post is a little late in coming. I got a bit distracted in packing for my beach vacation with the hubs. You can't blame me for getting a little excited, right?<br />
<br />
Well, I'm back with more than a bit of a tan, a new clip art set, and a freebie butterfly coloring page.<br />
<br />
But first, here are some obligatory photos from our trip to the beaches of Punta Cana.<br />
<br />
I spent my quiet time doing some business planning and brainstorming (thanks to Kelli Alaina's "Get it Done with Grace" free business e-course <a href="http://bit.ly/FreeProductivityCourse" rel="nofollow" style="color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" target="_blank">http://bit.ly/FreeProductivityCourse</a>) from this spot...<br />

<br />
I seriously love how these all turned out. It may have taken me three weeks from sketch to finished color but it think it was all worth it.<br />
<br />
And what I love most about the Animal Antonyms and the Antonyms & Opposites sets is that you can use them for SO much more than opposites and grammar studies. You could probably come up with a story for every duo, and then mix and match and come up with whole new ones. I know I sure did.<br />

Like this fellow. I imagine him relaxing after a hard day in the pig stye. It's rough getting muddy, rummaging around the trough for those corn cobs and watermelon rinds! In fact, just after you're done checking him out he's planning on pouring himself a nice glass of red and cracking up a good book.<br />

And these kids were SO much fun to do. To come up with each character I tried to imagine a situation where they might be interacting, again, a perfect place to imagine a storyline. Each of these kids are so individual and strong on their own they could be used for many other projects.</div>

When I created each look I drew upon people in my life. The boy "Standing" is based off of my brother with his jet black buzz cut and dramatic Eddie Munster hairline. The "Loud" girl is my daughter. No explanation needed. The "Short" boy's light tipped blonde hair is inspired by my son.</div>

And to be honest, the "Happy" girl and the "Sad" boy were also inspired by the many emotional ups and downs of that four year old "strong willed" girl.</div>

Introducing...<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
This set contains two groups of Leprechauns. The first is a single leprechaun in four different positions. The second is a group of four different leprechauns in four different positions. I couldn't decide which would be the most useful to folks so I did them both!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Five different hand painted leprechauns? Can't go wrong with that! The set also includes a full pot of gold, an empty pot, half rainbow, full arc rainbow, and a handy money bag.<br />
<br />

<br />
This set includes gold coins in stacks of 1 - 10. There are three different coin type: plain, shamrock, and four leaf clover. Each of these is shown as both front view and angled view. We have to count the leprechaun's money once we get ahold of it, right?<br />

<br />
This year the kids' teachers got cute bags with assorted chocolates and these super sweet bookmarks, complete with a thumbprint cherry on top.<br />
<br />
There is a perfectly blank spot at the top of the cupcakes that is just the right size for a little fingerprint. So use your little one's finger to stamp a cherry with a red or pink ink pad. Each kid wrote their own names on the back along with the teacher's name. You could write a note right on the front in the space between the text and the cupcake.<br />
<br />
I laminated the sheets of bookmarks with my handy laminating machine and then cut out each bookmark along the lines. You don't have to do this step, especially if you've printed them out of good heavy card stock, but I love the resiliency of a well laminated paper product.<br />
<br />
ALTERNATIVE TO LAMINATING MACHINE: Packing Tape. I've been doing this FOREVER. Seriously. I used to laminate EVERYTHING in high school and college this way. Cut strips to packing tape larger than the length of the bookmarks. Lay them vertically along the columns of bookmarks on the single sheet of paper you've printed with a 1/8" overlap. Then do the same on the back. Be sure to cover past the edges of the bookmarks. Burnish (or rub the tape down hard) with the back of a spoon or something smooth with no sharp edges. Then trim them out along the lines just as you would if it was laminated out of a machine. BOOM!<br />
<br />
You could punch a hole at the top and then thread a tassel or ribbon through for a little extra fun. We ran out of time (translation: I was up until 2 in the morning laminating and trimming so I had to cut corners somewhere). We packaged the bookmarks up in some heart decorated goodie bags with heart shaped chocolates. A perfectly simple, quick, and personal Valentine for a book lover or teacher in your life.<br />

Here is my Valentine's Day Mini Coloring Book. Pair it with a little bundle of crayons and tie them in a cute cellophane bag and you've got a Valentine that will be enjoyed beyond the perforated licensed character cards.<br />
<br />
Step 1. Print out the coloring book PDF on regular printer paper, or something a little heavier. Stay away from card stock for this one.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

I love making my sets have a DIY element to them. I think it's fun and lets folks get a little creative on their own. This set not only includes 8 super happy mugs but it also includes whipped cream, steam, a marshmallow cluster, and hanging tea bag tags.<br />
<br />
Combine one or a few of these elements with the mug of your choice and create your perfect cup or Joe... or chocolate... or steamy tea.<br />

Carter's mom also asked me to create an entirely new piece to go with their soft nursery color scheme. This night sky piece came to me and I just loved doing it.</div>

Of course I had to make it harder for myself by suspending the letters with string and with the shadowbox frame I was using I had to actually drill holes for the thread to run through inside the frame. I think it came out pretty sweet.</div>

I put some loose confetti stars in the frame before I sealed it. I like the idea of part of the art always being different than how it was when I made it. </div>

I'm sort of taking a step back from ye ole blog to get some personal projects done, like this one of my cousin's little one, Chloe.<br />
<br />
You may remember the <a href="http://www.sarahpecorino.com/2015/06/baby-carriage-thank-you.html" target="_blank">Thank You card</a> I did for my cousin's shower back in the summer.<br />
<br />
Well she asked me to do another piece for her with Chloe's name and how could I say no? My cousin has quite the collection of Vera Bradley bags and baby accessories so when this concept popped up when working on sketches I had to go with it.<br />
<br />

<br />
I created the artwork, which on its own works great as a print, but I couldn't stop there. When I cut the matt for the frame I decided to add a few cut outs from an extra print. I used regular foam tape to add dimension and it provided just enough lift to the image and didn't get squashed by the glass.<br />

<br />
I had a hard time deciding where to begin and keep the style and feel of the sets consistent to my brand. I've decided to treat my paper packs like coordinating patterns in a art package available for licensing.<br />
<br />
SO I've started with two coordinating digital paper packs to go with my best selling <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Colorful-Monsters-Clip-Art-1966002" target="_blank">Colorful Monster Clip Art</a>. Each set contains 14 pages of 12 x 12 inch 300dpi digital paper with hand drawn watercolor textures.<br />

This week we celebrate and remember those who have fought for our country and the freedoms for which it stands for. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As a child my grandparents were very active in the local chapter of the <a href="http://www.vfw.org/" target="_blank">V.F.W.</a> and some of my family still is. My grandmother was always putting things together for the veterans and always had paper poppies on hand. This is probably part of the reason why poppies are my favorite flower.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So today I'm offering this Remembrance Poppy clip art piece for a free download and ask that you thank a veteran in your life.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I think I might print a few out on heavy card stock and attach them to a pin backing so that we can wear them on our coats like the ones my grandmother used to hand out.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

My aunt is an active member of the Women's Auxilary of her chapter of the V.F.W. She recently asked me to design the pin that commemorates her term as <span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">2015-2016 Connecticut Department President of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Auxiliary. Obviously I was honored and jumped at the chance. Plus, it's super cool to see your design on something like a brass pin.</span></span></div>

<br />
<br />
My Calendar Icons series are designed with an open space on the surface of the main graphics so that you can write the number of the day and add it to your calendar. At my house we use them to create patterns within the month.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiU07L4pP3IwqYwib99c59lXsvwvDFna_D8M1RcN8XXr3fUl5AAjtpQiy7TzKH-r69x2eGjNtKdxYQV9e3_XcbRI5euxicXtvziopnmA84HyD8tOcw5XZ2dLOOO1fPIfeNhWp8cUAPymAw/s1600/CalendarNOV-01.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiU07L4pP3IwqYwib99c59lXsvwvDFna_D8M1RcN8XXr3fUl5AAjtpQiy7TzKH-r69x2eGjNtKdxYQV9e3_XcbRI5euxicXtvziopnmA84HyD8tOcw5XZ2dLOOO1fPIfeNhWp8cUAPymAw/s1600/CalendarNOV-01.png" title="November Icons clip art by Sarah Pecorino Illustration. Icons can be used many ways, like counting the days out on a calendar." /></a></div>
<br />
But don't let that how we use them limit you! Here are just a few more ideas...<br />
<br />
<b>Make a Memory Game</b><br />
These icons would make a fantastic Memory game set. How about making a set to keep at the kids' table for Thanksgiving?<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDpqQ7ScpK1uZXuHza2BZUr0_cHylI5x4X3f4RwtMERdebvjMqL6sHyovGFT2PUWHYHnUGqVJo6mt-wMwykvN8iaVIkbVVAB2fc601vQTQkGt1mC3yejrCm9jm9Z6KffpO2fr3MPSDRPc/s1600/MatchingGame_NOV-02.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDpqQ7ScpK1uZXuHza2BZUr0_cHylI5x4X3f4RwtMERdebvjMqL6sHyovGFT2PUWHYHnUGqVJo6mt-wMwykvN8iaVIkbVVAB2fc601vQTQkGt1mC3yejrCm9jm9Z6KffpO2fr3MPSDRPc/s1600/MatchingGame_NOV-02.png" title="November Icons clip art by Sarah Pecorino Illustration. Icons can be used many ways, like making a memory game for the kids' table." /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<b>Make Food and Place Cards</b><br />
Are you planning on making labels for the delicious foods you're serving at a Thanksgiving gathering? Try adding these icons to labels you display alongside the food at the buffet.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3qtW4jwUq0xF9inkZbYbfH5DkG7KsDlXdu5t8HZbIceG7k7E7bKqGhxj7e72pQDCl6BEBm6aIOt41nG6SU3N_0COPzKHuDw1KE-p0y1t6PNqktz5kkdgLny_PpNCVUoD51Plq9kb30Qw/s1600/PlaceCards_NOV-03.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3qtW4jwUq0xF9inkZbYbfH5DkG7KsDlXdu5t8HZbIceG7k7E7bKqGhxj7e72pQDCl6BEBm6aIOt41nG6SU3N_0COPzKHuDw1KE-p0y1t6PNqktz5kkdgLny_PpNCVUoD51Plq9kb30Qw/s1600/PlaceCards_NOV-03.png" title="November Icons clip art by Sarah Pecorino Illustration. Icons can be used many ways, like for food labels or place cards." /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Use the same labels to make Thanksgiving place cards.<br />
<br />
<b>Decorate Tasty Goodies</b><br />
Or add a little creative zip to your cupcakes by printing the icons out on card stock, cutting them out, and decorating.<br />
<br />
