{ the dude abides }

©2012 michelle littler www.littletoad.etsy.com
Lot's of new & exciting things are happening here at littletoad!! One of which is us trying new styles on different products. With my newest venture I took a stab at incorporating my logo designs with my cartoon
take on "pop culture" One of my favorite movies is "The Big Lebowski" which has such great characters, their almost cartoons already. For being my first attempt at this style I think it was pretty successful, now I just have to figure out what product to incorporate the image on. That's where YOU come in, that's right I'm talking to you.
What do you think of my newest design and what product would you like to see it on?

{ 10% OFF my newest item: 2012 Cute Cryptozoology Calendars }

I'm so excited about my newest item in my shop because I wanted to do it last year but ran out of time and really didn't think anyone would want a calendar in the middle of March. This 2012 calendar is truly one of a kind and is sure to make a great gift for everyone on your list. You can easily use it as a stocking stuffer, under the tree, next to the menorah or can be easily mailed to friends or family.

So what makes this calendar so darn great? Well when's the last time you saw a calendar with a vampire, the loch ness monster and a unicorn all in one place (and not when you ate those "brownies"). This calendar combines 13 new & original illustrations of cryptozoology and brief descriptions of each one. The other great thing is that this calendar is a unique size do it makes a perfect desk calendar, DIY binding or you can even frame them just for the artwork!

The best part, I am offering YOU that's right YOU a special discount. Upon checkout use the code BLOG2011(I had no creativity for a name after creating this calendar) to receive a 10% discount off the printed version or the DIY version. That's 10% OFF your entire calendar purchase so the more you buy the more you save. Most places don't encourage you to share their coupons but I say share with everybody, heck give it to random strangers.

Also I would love to hear your comments on what you think of my newest item. Should I make more like this? What item would you like a coupon for? Can I give you the secret location of the Bigfoot?
