Entries: US Only!

I was lucky enough to be surfing etsy for some cute stationary when I came across the shop of Emilee Rose! Lucky for YOU she agreed to let Ms. Modern do a review & giveaway of her items! I had the chance to ask her some questions about her art. Here’s what she had to say:

How did you get started? I’ve always been involved in the arts somehow, but emilee rose got started when a friend of mine asked me to participate in a craft show that she was planning. I thought it would be a great way to help out a friend and make a little extra money. So I began with my paper dolls. I also worked at a stationery store while I was in school, and so after a while, I decided to add my own line of stationery.

What’s your inspiration? My biggest inspiration are old children’s books. I love looking at the illustrations. Children looked so much more playful then…and I love the vintage clothes!

What’s your favorite medium? I can’t live without my Micron pens and my computer. My paper dolls and my cards are all painted with gouache. It is like watercolor, but much more opaque. I can get truer, richer colors with gouache.
 
Do you do custom items? I do! I’ve done some custom stationery and custom paper dolls. For the paper dolls, I just ask for a photograph and a little description of the child. That sometimes helps me come up with their outfits or accessories.

Emilee is a talented illustrator who hand-paints all of her greeting cards! I love the personal touch that adds. Each card is printed on 110 lb cardstock. This Thank You card is one of my faves:

My absolute favorite items in her store, though, are her paper dolls! Emilee sent 2 for review & my friend Kara’s daughter, Kylie, got to test them out. Kara reported that mom and Kylie had lots of fun playing dolls! I’ll let the photos speak for themselves!
