A little bit ago, I came up with an idea to have a notebook full of creative ideas that I compose when I am properly medicated and active. This has inspired a bunch of fun ideas that I am now starting to turn into small designs.
I started coming up with the idea for a cannabis brand that has cute designs made from thoughts while medicated. These are things that I think others would enjoy or find funny that I could see on stickers, clothing or water bottles to name a few.
With my first piece, I didn’t believe that I could create any kind of designs for myself and lacked the confidence to try. I drew out a draft of what I wanted and had an artist create a digital version for me that was super cute. I will post that design below. This is one of a few in my shop.
After the outpouring of support for the first design, I started to get excited about making more and couldn’t wait to make this happen. I downloaded some apps and started designing. I have had such a blast making these and am branching out into more informational and marketing-style material. I have enjoyed taking requests, suggestions and inspiration from friends, family and many others in my life. I am entirely grateful to those who have expressed their support and their excitement for me as well as for the ones that we share these designs with.
My goal in all of this is to create a brand that assists in ending the stigma against mental health and cannabis, as well as so many other topics. I want to be able to give back to the people who have supported me the entire time, the projects that support getting people out of prison for cannabis, and to the organizations that got me to where I am now.
Here are a few of the projects that I have worked on so far. Some have been shared and some have not. Thank you for your time and support!
I want to continue making cute, relatable designs that can be used on stickers, magnets, bags, etc. Something you can see in dispensaries/smoke shops across the US. If you have any suggestions or know better ways to go about this, feel free to reach out!
