Hello all pet lovers! Today I wanted to share my lineup of pet bandanas with you. I've been so excited to design these! I've been on a pet supplies kick lately, and these are just one of the pet items that I've made available in my shops. These pet bandanas are available in the same designs as my fish shaped cat mats, bone shaped dog mats and super soft fleece pet blankets... so you can even coordinate your whole cat or dog set up with a design that totally matches their personality! :) 

Each bandana is crafted for comfort and durability, ensuring your pet looks good and feels great. The soft fabric is gentle on your pet's fur, and the tie-on design allows for an adjustable fit, perfect for pets of all shapes and sizes. Whether you're out for a walk, heading to a pet-friendly event, or just lounging at home, a Redbubble pet bandana is a simple yet fashionable way to express your pet's unique personality.

These pet bandanas make the ultimate cute accessory for your pet! I've designed over 200 pet bandanas with my wide range of hand drawn patterns and design so you can be sure there's a pattern, color, or theme to suit your pet's personality perfectly. Whether you're dressing up for a special occasion, taking a festive holiday photo, or just going for a walk in the park, bandanas are the perfect way to add a dash of charm to your pet's appearance!

​Here are a few more of my favourite bandanas. 

Did you dress your pet up in a Tanya Draws patterned bandana? I would absolutely love to see your pet photos! Snap a pic and tag me @tanya_draws on threads or instagram, or @tanyadraws on X! I cannot wait to see your adorable cat or doggo.

​Looking for more pet items? I have also started designing a range of pet bowls and pet beds over at my Zazzle shop! These are customizable so you can even add your pets name.

Hi guys, hope you're all having a wonderful 2024 so far!
Today I'm here to announce a product that I've recently added to my Zazzle shop - a lineup of custom all-over-print Backpacks that are sure to turn heads and make your daily journeys a little brighter. With over 20 unique designs available, and many more on the way, these backpacks combine fashion with function, and make every load you carry a part of your personal statement! Some of these backpacks are designed with a monogram or name option, and you can change the background colour to any colour imaginable to make them truly unique. 

But these backpacks aren't just about the design, they're crafted to support you wherever you go. Whether you're jet-setting across the globe, heading to school, hitting the gym, or are looking for a unique backpack to gift to someone, these backpacks are the perfect companion for all your storage needs. And with our full pattern lineup making its way onto these, you'll have a design for every occasion and mood!

Let's take a closer look at these new Zazzle backpacks.

Each one of these backpacks is designed by ~moi~ including the little touches! I'm working my way through adding all of my patterns to these wonderful backpacks, but so far you can find my new bad tabby cats, my hiya papaya pattern, my owls and so many more. Keep an eye out for more - I'll be sharing them on my Pinterest and X pages to let you know when they're here! If you have any requests for designs you'd like to see on backpacks sooner, feel free to reach out and I will add it for you. :)

I hope you like these new backpacks! Are there any products you're hoping to see in my shop in 2024? Let me know in the comments below!

Since designing my original bad cats knocking stuff over pattern back in 2020, it has become a permanent staple and best seller in my shop! It's an idea I had for a while after watching large, large amounts of cat videos on the internet, as apparently many of us do. Cat content on YouTube had garnered more than 26 billion views as of 2021, and I was (and still am) a huge purr-veyor of online cat videos contributing to this statistic. 

As my design became popular I decided that other cat varieties should get this spotlight too! My pattern has been around for a while in a siamese cats version and also a white cats version. In November I decided to revisit it and add 2 more - orange tabby cats and grey tabby cats! Orange tabby cats had been sitting in the WIP queue for a while now, and once I added the orange ones I just had to do grey tabby cats too. 

The two new versions are available on home decor, mugs, accessories, sticker packs and more at my three major marketplaces at RedBubble, Zazzle and Society6. 

My products are available on a wide range of giftable home decor, phone cases, and the ever popular mugs. While the pattern is available at all 3 of my major shops, the ones from Zazzle have elements that you can modify yourself to make your gift idea even more unique! You have the option of changing the background colour of my cat patterns to any colour imaginable, plus you can add a name or initial to create a custom monogram. Here are some of my favourite products designed in my new patterns to make great gifts for the holiday season.

Given the popularity of my bad cats knocking stuff over mug in particular, I decided to create it in monogram versions over at Zazzle. Available in both pattern colours, you can choose your background colour, choose the colour of your monogram and add your name and initial to the front and back. This way each cat mug you give as a gift can be unique per recipient!

Throw blankets are such a cozy gift idea for the winter, and they're made even better with a cute cat design. These super warm sherpa blankets are covered in edge to edge full colour print on the front, and ultra soft sherpa on the inside. Available in 3 different sizes in both of my new patterns. Choose any background colour for the pattern. Bonus points if your cat loving recipient has a grey or orange tabby cat - their cat might love this super cozy gift even more!

Where I live in Canada, single use plastic bags are a thing of the past and reusable bags are now an essential shopping accessory. These all over print tote bags from Zazzle are durable, vibrant and earth-friendly too. Designed with a custom monogram, you can add an initial and choose your own colours. Every shopping trip will be made even more fun accompanied with a funny cat pattern in colours picked just for you.

These thermal tumblers are double walled so you can take your favourite hot beverage with you on your morning commute. The top is equipped with a flip top lid to prevent spills. And best of all, its decorated in a full wrap of vibrant all over print, which I've decorated with my bad cats knocking stuff over pattern. I've added a monogram to this design, so you can customize it yourself with your own colours and initials. This makes a great gift for cat lovers who also enjoy a nice warm cup of coffee or tea in the morning!

I can't talk about gift ideas without bringing up these super cute pet products from RedBubble! I saw them available and had to add all of my patterns to them immediately. The mats are made for your cats and are FISH SHAPED - so cute! Pair it with a super cozy fleece pet blanket that your cat can sit on. They come shipped in a cardboard box too, which your cat may love better. Hey, I don't make the rules. But its the thought that counts! I've added all 5 of my bad cats pattern colours to these products, so you can find a pet mat or blanket that matches your cat!

​Let’s chat about aprons – not just any aprons, but the kind that save your outfit when you’re bravely facing the splatters of homemade spaghetti sauce, or when you're knee-deep in glitter on your latest crafting adventure. They're the unsung heroes of the kitchen, and if you use them professionally, have probably saved your wardrobe more times than you can count. And the best part? They come with a personal flair, created out in designs that scream 'you'!

​An apron in your home coffee bar protects your outfit from spills & stray coffee grinds, plus as a bonus, gives a pro barista vibe. One that matches your hobby or style gives is a great way to round out your personal home café. But lets not forget the arts and crafts - I spent many days working with charcoal as a student, and I can safely say that the charcoal did not stay on the page! An apron could have definitely benefited me, and a cute patterned one would have been even better.

​So, whether you’re the master of macarons or a wizard with a glue gun, an apron is your trusty sidekick. And when it comes to gifting, nothing says, “I get you” like a piece of fabric that’s got your back. Let’s bring the humble apron into the limelight, one splash, spill, and splatter at a time. And hey, if you’re getting crafty with one of my designs, don’t forget to show it off! Snap a pic and tag me @tanya_draws – I’m here for all your stylishly shielded shenanigans!

QR code business cards have become increasingly popular in recent years, and for good reason. They offer a number of benefits over traditional business cards, while still maintaining a lot of the look and feel of a traditional business card. With all this in mind, I've designed a new QR code business card template for customers to personalize at Zazzle.

But what is a QR code business card? Simply put, it's a business card that includes a QR code, which is a two-dimensional barcode that can be scanned using a smartphone or tablet. The QR code can contain information related to your business or profession, like a link to your website, LinkedIn profile, portfolio, or even a video. 
So why should you consider using a QR code business card?

Here are a few benefits:

1. They're more convenient for the recipient.
​Traditional paper business cards can be easy to lose or misplace. With a QR code business card, the recipient can simply scan the code and save your contact information directly to their phone's address book. This eliminates the need for them to manually enter your information, which can be time-consuming and error-prone.

2. They offer more space for information.
Traditional paper business cards have limited space, which means you have to be selective about the information you include. With a QR code business card, you can include much more information without worrying about running out of space. This could include a brief bio, links to your social media profiles, or even a video introducing yourself or your business.

3. They're more engaging.
A QR code business card can be a conversation starter. When someone scans the code, they'll be taken to a landing page that could include a video, a portfolio of your work, or other interactive content. This can help you stand out from the crowd and make a memorable impression on potential clients or partners.

4. They're more versatile.
QR codes can be used in a variety of ways beyond business cards. You could include them on your website, in your email signature, or even on promotional materials like flyers or posters. This means you can use the same code to provide contact information, direct people to your website, or share other types of content.

If you're looking for a modern and effective way to share your contact information and promote your business, a QR code business card is definitely worth considering. Paired with an eye catching design, your business card is sure to catch the attention of potential clients! 

Creating Your QR Code Business Card

​My pre-designed business card design templates are easy to personalize, and you can even remove or change the elements if you want more of a personalized look.
First, choose the design for your cards. With over 70 designs to choose from, you're sure to find one that suits your businesses unique style. I've showcased a few of my QR code designs below!

The other thing you should consider is the size of your business card. The majority of my cards are designed on the standard 3.5" x 2" by default, but you have a few other card size options to choose from. If you choose a larger size than standard, you can move around all of the elements on my layout to make it your own. 

Next, personalize the card! In the "Personalize this template" section, you'll be able to add your name, profession, social handles, contact info, and a URL to create your QR code. Try to pick a link for your QR code that provides extra information relating to your business - a link to an intro video, store location page, or about me page on your website are all good options!

Once you are satisfied with how your business information looks on the card, you can choose the paper type & corner type of your cards. On Zazzle, you have the option of choosing rounded or classic corners. 
There are also 12 different paper types you can choose for your card, including standard matte, semi-gloss, UV gloss, cream, premium silk, premium linen, premium pearl, premium Kraft and more!​

When you're ready to check out, be sure to check the offers page on zazzle! They often run sales on their product, so your purchase may be eligible for a coupon or additional discount.
