Birthday Doodle Drive

Hello wonderful patrons!!

It's my birthday today and I've been dearly missing doing weird marker doodles, so let's do some doodle commissions! The twist is that you'll choose one word from each column (shown in the second image of this post) for your prompt. "Joyous Girl Summit" are the three words that go with my example~

Should you choose to participate, you'll receive an original marker doodle on bristol paper in the mail. I'll ...

June Stack

(Sunglasses for scale)

Hello my dear patrons! This month’s stickers are on the way. I’m sending them out a bit early because I’ll be traveling until the 23rd. This month’s surprise (one of my favorites ever) arrived yesterday, so I was able to pack everything and get them out last night before I leave this morning. It was a bit of a whirlwind getting all the envelopes together, so if you notice any issues with your stickers plea...

August Theme Poll

Big news... Paper Surprise Sticker Club is turning FIVE in August!!!

As part of the celebration, I wanted to bring back an old out-of-print theme and give it new life! These sets are all from the 2020-2021 era of sticker club where I was printing and cutting stickers at home, so they were much less durable.

The winner of this poll will be redesigned, redrawn, and printed on our nice new waterproof vinyl as August...

🐚 June Set Reveal 🐚

June's sticker set theme is... SUNSET DREAM 🌅

I always do an especially self indulgent sticker set theme for my birthday month and that usually means something weird. This year it's a surreal sunset of seashells and spirals. I'm not sure what else to say other than well... I love it!

Here's my inspo board:

April Stack

(Mallet for scale)

Hello my dear patrons, I hope you're all having a lovely start to Spring so far! April stickers are on their way to you :)

In case you missed my previous post, sticker club will be on break next month! You won't be charged on May 1st, and there will be no new stickers sent out in May. Sticker club will resume as normal automatically on June 1st!

Important: May Break

Hello my dear patrons!

I'm sorry to do this again so soon after my most recent break in February, but I'll be pausing sticker club for May. For any new patrons, that means you won't be charged on May 1st and there will be no stickers mailed next month. Billing (and stickers) will resume on June 1st!

My graphic novel (!!...

APRIL SET REVEAL

The winner of April's theme poll is... LUCKY DEVILS!

I thought it'd be fun to design a set of well-known symbols of good luck as devilish little creatures. Coins, snakes, bamboo, mushrooms, eyes, keys, and crickets are a few examples. I even included a devilish lemon pig and a 2025-03-27 20:00:25 +0000 UTC View Post

March Stack

(? for scale)

Well my dear patrons, March stickers are on their way to you! Please keep an eye out for them :)

These are going out a bit later than usual because of an issue with the bonus surprise this month. The first batch came out wrong, so I decided to delay sending out stickers for a few days in order to wait for the reprint. The reprint arrived quickly... but there was still a tiny error 🫠 It's pretty minor and I stil...

MARCH SET REVEAL

March's sticker set theme is.... INTERPLANETARY POST!

This theme was submitted by Anna, a current Sticker King and dear friend of mine! If you don't know, Sticker King tier members can submit theme suggestions, and usually I'd add these to theme polls but this one was so good I just had to do it 🤪

I've wanted to do a postage stamp sticker set for a long time but have never been able to come up with a theme to tie it together,...

APRIL THEME POLL

Hello my dear patrons! Popping in here during the break for a good old-fashioned theme poll featuring a few returning options from previous months that did not win. I already have March's theme picked out (which I'll reveal toward the end of February), so this poll will be for April.

January Stack

(Windex for scale)

January stickers are finally on their way to you, my dear patrons! Thank you so much for your patience 💛 I'm thrilled with how the riso prints came out and I'm very much hoping to do more in the future!! I can't wait for you all to see your prints!

REMINDER: Paper Surprise Sticker Club is taking a break in February!

This means you won't be charged on Feb 1st and won't be receiving a...

JAN REWARD DELAY + FEB BREAK

Hello and happy 2025 my dear patrons!!

I have some unfortunate news: January stickers will be delayed due to a few different factors (more info below).

Also I will be taking a break in February, so there will be no stickers next month! Billing has been temporarily paused, so you will not be charged February 1st. Sticker club will resume as normal on March 1st! 

January Set Reveal

Next month's theme is... VINTAGE TOY BOX

This was a very close runner up for December's poll, and it felt like the right theme for me to work on over the holidays!

I recently bought some Procreate brushes from True Grit Texture Supply that closely mimic traditional media, and I wanted to try those out on this set. I mainly used Kolor...

December Stack

(Playing card for scale)

Can you hear that sound on the wind? That's the sound of small frog stickers making their way to your mailbox! Please allow a little extra time for delivery this month due to the holidays. Merry Christmas if you celebrate, and I'll see you for January's sticker reveal later this month!

Cyber Monday Sale & Canada Post Announcement

Hello my dear patrons! I decided last minute to have a little flash sale in my online shop. Right now patrons in any tier can get 30% off using code "PATRONMONDAY" at checkout : ) Hurry because this sale will end at the end of the day 12/2!

I'll be posting about the sale publicly tomorrow (non-patrons will be able to get 20% off), but for right now it's...

🐸 DECEMBER SET REVEAL 🛌 ☕️

The winner of this month's theme poll is... BED TIME FROGS!

In case you missed it, members of the Sticker Kings tier can suggest theme ideas for me to mix into polls. I figured it'd be best not to reveal which options are patron suggestions unless they win so it doesn't influence the poll results. This theme was suggested by a very special patron, my mom (thanks mom!!) As my first ever fan, I can't think of a more fitting first theme ...

November Stack

(Bag for scale and obscuration of the new envelopes)

Hello my dear patrons! November stickers are on their way and members who upgraded last month during the relaunch will be getting their embroidered patches too!

I wanted to get these out a little bit early this month in case there are any mailing issues caused by the embroidered patches. I've done a few successful test mailings so they should be fine, but you never know! Rem...

DEC THEME POLL & Thank You

The time has come to decide on a theme for December's sticker set! Please vote for your favorite option below!

Also... Sneaking in one last message regarding the relaunch:

I wanted to express deep gratitude to all my wonderful patrons past and present for your patience and understanding regarding this relaunch process, and an especially big THANK YOU to those of you who chose to upgrade to one of my new tiers! Seriously… I can...

An Explanation about the Relaunch Process

I wanted to take some time to explain in detail the reasons why I’m undergoing this “relaunch” process, as it has been a bit confusing and some of you may be curious about the ins and outs of a Patreon-based business like mine!  I also wanted to address IOS billing changes, which you may have heard about from other creators.  This post will be long and is NOT required reading, but will hopefully provide some insight int...
