Next in the Shop Update!

Each greeting card pack contains 5 cards and white envelopes. Cards are 4.25" by 5.5". Some cards have messages in the inside, others are blank.

As always, all flora and fauna in my designs are based on species here in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean 🌿

Thank You Greeting Card Set

I’ll be adding more sets of greeting cards soon, but I’m including three in this update. You can get all three (or in the future, any three of your choice) for a discount when you order a set. 15 cards total.

Chronic Cards Set

Chronic Cards & MEAction

I do want to highlight the Chronic Cards set specifically today. I’ve created these because “get well soon” cards are not applicable to folks with chronic illnesses, and greeting cards with messaging for us is… nonexistent. My Chronic Cards create opportunities for people to connect with and support their disabled/chronically ill loved ones.

A portion of each sale in the series (and there are many more Chronic Card sets to come!) will be donated to MEaction and their mission to support the ME/CFS and Long Covid community. ME/CFS- the condition that I have that is THE MOST debilitating, that has no official treatments- is now 15x more prevalent than before Covid. Because of Covid. FIFTEEN TIMES more prevalent. And MEaction has been a solid, supportive resource in my life since I developed ME/CFS in 2018, and I want to be able to support them through my work.

Today, for International ME Awareness Day and #MillionsMissing, MEaction is holding a #DisabilitySOS protest at the US capitol and online. Please follow along on whatever social media you use with the above hashtags and @meactnet. And call your representatives and demand that they protect Medicaid.

🌿 Please help me grow by spreading the word about my shop. If you’re on Bluesky, I’m posting regularly there. As soon as I have more categories listed in the shop, I’m going to make some posts on Instagram. You can also share my shop directly with people you think will love my work.

You can also support me over on Ko-fi, where I share more behind the scenes stuff, like some of the initial style sheets that led to these new products, for example. I’m currently at 5% of my fundraising goal for this month; all donations, commissions, and shop sales go toward that goal. Remember that monthly supporters automatically contribute to a mutual aid fund that goes to supporting other disabled community members!
