Did this just for fun. This is actually a design I made at work as a decal. Yep! You can get this cool guy for your wall (or whatever) right here. It comes in two color combinations and it’s pretty big as you can see/read. Good thing we do custom sizes. ;)
Sorry for making your eyes bleed.
Disclaimer: Decal will look like the display pictures on the site I linked above, not what it looks like on my blog. i.e. no animated wheels, textures, or glitchiness. :p

Another decal design. Just the sleepy koala on the branch anyway. After this one, I realized textures used in Illustrator aren’t such a good idea when the illustration is bigger than letter-tabloid size. In this case, the design is 36 inches wide by i dunno what height… I don’t remember how many times it crashed. I guess I won’t be using textures for decals anymore. Sadness.
EDIT: The textures I’m referring to are the ones along the edges of the leaves, branch, and koala which the decal has. I added the rest in Photoshop for the web :)

Just a quick photo (forgive the crappy cell cam quality) of a design I did for work inspired by el Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead). They’re going to be at a trade show in Ft. Lauderdale and are giving these and a few other printed decal samples away while they’re there. Luckily they gave me one before packing up the rest for the show XD Fits perfectly on my laptop!

There are actually 3 other color choices and come in a much bigger size:

Which you can get here & we do custom sizes!

EDIT: The one on my laptop is the “Festive Death” color choice.

Hey guys! Looking for adorably spooky Halloween decorations?? Well, look no further! Here are some Halloween decals designed by yours truly and provided to you by Dali Decals!
(Custom work also available!)
Does anyone have any requests you’d like to see made into decals? Nothing copyrighted of course, it would just be cool to know what you kind folk would be interested in. You never know, I might just make it! Eh? Ehh??
EDIT: What?? I can’t answer my own questions, Tumblr? That’s just silly. @lindodo: Very good question, my friend! It’s easy-peasy! Every order comes with a full color installation booklet to help you along the way. Or you can watch these videos to see how easy it is before you buy :)

A long overdue HUGE update!

EDIT: If you do want custom decals similar to these it would be best to contact me at karen@dalidecals.com and not here :) And if you happen to order any it would be super cool to see pictures XD

I’ve missed doodling so very much but I’ve been working loads since I graduated and well I pretty much get home and veg out haha! I have been working on some daily comics in my sketchbook though, I’m super excited to start posting those up. In the meantime, I thought I’d let you guys in on the kind of things I work on at my job at DaliDecals.com

Dali Decals is a wall vinyl decal online store and they offer cut vinyl decals, custom printed wall decals and printed canvas too!

Perfect for boys!

& Perfect for girls!

I’m one of their product designers (those up there are designs I’ve created) and I also work on a lot of custom orders for cut and printed decals like these:

You might remember my last post that looked similar to this. The customer wanted more colors and detail so I revised the design and this is what she was happy with :). Can’t wait to see it printed!

Forest creatures!! Who doesn’t love forest creatures?? And we have 36 semi-gloss colors and 45 matte colors to choose from for our cut vinyl decals for all you color combination needs!

These cut vinyl cuties come separated by color for easier application and because cut decals are cut from sheets of vinyl, each sheet being one color.

And that’s my spiel about my job which I love so much. How could I not when I get to make happy homes with my illustrations? It’s just one step closer to making the world a happier place one cute illustration at a time… And it’s kinda cool to have my artwork put up on people’s walls XD

If you guys ever want some cute decals for your homes, feel free to let me know ;) Oooh! And tell your friends! (We do international shipping!)

I’ve been so busy I haven’t been able to doodle in forever but I enjoyed working on this for a client at work so I thought I’d share :)
