I think the new logo for Canines and Cardboard is meaningful and simple. And doesnt look so bad on a TSHIRT :)👌

Possible third shirt? 😂 If it makes me laugh, I know I'm on to something pretty good. :) Still editing it but happy thus far. :)

OOOOH.... it's definitely ready to print now. Didnt like the gold scroll before and also wanted the words to go more horizontal than vertical. Looks pretty awesome..in my opinion! 👌😊 Pirates of the Caribbean arent Star Wars but still kinda relevant, right??? :)

When in doubt, create.

I've been thinking about going back to my old shoots and seeing if I can convert them into tshirts. :)

I probably am going to edit it some more, but here's the next tshirt I hope to have printed up. 😂

Best part of making a cardboard creation, shooting the photos, editing it, and making people laugh is to have strangers say "May the Cardboard be with you." 😂

Thanks Drew for always being so supportive of these silly projects. :)

Done with the cat box. 🙂 came out perfectly! Scratch post sides, catnip toys, and I even made a cushion for it! Planning is everything. 👌☺️

It’s getting there! 🙂 will share details later. ☺️

cat box for my dear coworker’s cat, Lilo. I’m assuming it’s from Lilo and Stitch hence the colors.

Happy Lunar New Year, Everyone!!! 🤗

How fitting that it’s the year of the Dog. 💕

If it’s not obvious enough, Napoleon means the world to me so every year, every day, is his. But it’s especially cool this new year because it’s my year as well. There’s a superstition in my culture that if it’s your animal year, it can be a challenging one. But I’m up for it! 💪

A little update on the BrightEyed Creatives front:

Had my first auction and had a donation made to Houston Pets Alive! $100 goes a long way to making an impact on a pet rescue’s life. It could provide a almost months worth of food, a set of shots, or a spay/neuter. Please consider donating to a local shelter when you can. We all deserve second chances/new beginnings and that’s the whole theme of C&C. 😊

Planning my next cardboard project. Once I finish my painting and some photo shoot edits. It’s a cute theme 👌🙂

Hoping to edit some past Canine and Cardboard shoots and make them into T-shirts. 😊 I’ll post a photo of my recent T-shirt soon. It came out pretty awesome!

It’s taking me longer to be motivated to do creative things. Which happens and I’m trying not be down about it. Because sometimes we need a break from even the things we love. But in my heart, I need art and something to create in a meaningful way in order to feel complete. I look forward to the projects I have planned and a new year is a great time to reboot.

Wishing everyone a year of prosperity, happiness, meaningfulness, and love. 🤗 we are looking forward to the future and hope you are too! 💕

Lots of love,
Sophie&Napoleon

Millennium Falcon auction starts today! :) ANNNNDDDDD im throwing in the master blaster gun. ;)

Starting at $100.

I know it's a long shot to reach this goal, maybe. lol. But I shall try, nevertheless.

All proceeds will go to a non-kill pet shelter.

As I said in my previous video, the concept behind Canines and Cardboard is rescue and recycle. It's about turning second chances into something wonderful. I adopted Napoleon from BARC and he's changed my life for the better and I know I've given him the best life I could offer. And in the same theme, cardboard which is normally discarded (hopefully recycled) is turned into something unique and awesome. Let's pay it forward even more and give this MF a great new home and raise money for a great cause!

Since I'm rather new to this and I dont expect it to get out of hand, please be local (houston) and if you're bidding, make sure to bid under this post on my BrightEyed Creatives site. If there's some lost bids floating out there, Ill update the original post myself. If it does end up getting out of hand, Ill have to redo this all and figure out an official auction site to handle all this but I doubt itll get to that :)

Bidding ends 1:00AM December 1st.

Tag/share with anyone who might be interested. :)

*this MF is around 36x43 inches*

🤗 hi everyone.

I took a really long break from this page but I didnt stop creating stuff! 😊

Here’s a video on the concept behind Canines and Cardboard and the upcoming Millennium Falcon auction. 😊

Oh and 1) I’m sorry about the low quality video. Haha and it’s changing colors.

2) I’m also throwing in the Cardboard blaster gun. 👌

3) I’ll try to be better about updating this page from now on. 😇😘

Edit: I don’t know what’s wrong with Facebook or maybe it’s just my phone but the volume goes out via the mobile app. 🤔 if I view this via safari or a desktop, it’s perfectly fine. 🙂
