Can you believe it’s been a month already!? (Is time even real anymore?? Because I definitely cannot, time is fake, clocks are liars, and I refuse to be gaslit by calendars) 😤

This month has been... a lot. Buckle in, maybe grab a cute drink because May was a rollercoaster, but we’ve made it, bestie! So let’s talk about it.

11 whole months.

That’s how long the Cricut saga lasted. And by saga, I mean epic quest… except instead of dragons, there were tech issues, miscuts, and enough frustration to power a small sun. 😭🫠

Honestly? It felt like a boss fight I didn’t sign up for.

Something I’ve really come to believe through this:

Just like small biz owners are expected to own up to quality issues, big corporations also need to be held accountable. We deserve better. Period.

BUT GUESS WHAT!?

I have officially broken free and stepped into the light... ✨

Say hello to my shiny new cutter: the Silhouette Portrait 3!! (Pictured above!)

Isn’t she so pretty??? And she works. Flawlessly. I almost cried when I saw those clean sticker cuts.

She’s a beauty, she works like a dream, and I’m finally getting perfect cuts again?? I want to cry.

No more misaligned nightmares, just clean, crispy stickers. Life is good. 🥹

I’m beyond thrilled to announce we have our first two members in the CutePeachClub! It feels like the start of something truly special. Seeing this little dream come alive with real people is everythinggg, I’m so grateful for you both. 🥹💖

Big thanks to my amazing Ko-fi members, because of you, I finally got myself a laminator! Laminating stickers and making photocard holders just got so much easier and faster. My sticker game just leveled up, and I’m buzzing with ideas on what to create next. You all are the real MVPs 🫶✨

I can’t believe SEVENTEEN has been with us for ten whole years. 🥹

I’ve laughed with them, cried with them, felt comforted by their music in my lowest moments, and cheered them on through every comeback and chaos-filled variety moment. And I know so many of you feel the same. 💎 🫂

So I made something really special, for them, and for us.

Here’s what’s inside:

💎 1x Bongbongie Photocard Holder

💎 1x Holographic Button Pin (58mm)

💎 1x Matching Holographic Sticker (a lil freebie~ just because)

🛒 Preorders run from May 28th to June 6th

⏳ Processing takes about 2 weeks after preorders close

📦 Shipping begins around June 22nd

Every piece is handmade by me with so much love and so many feelings. If you decide to get one, just know you’re holding a little part of my heart, and probably a few stray tears (happy ones, I promise hehe~ 💖)

You can get it here if you’d like!

Andddd talking about sticker cutters and laminators, Peach Prints Co is back! I’m finally back to making stickers again thanks to my Silhouette, bless her perfect little cutting heart. 🥹

When I started out as a baby business owner, getting stickers made was honestly so frustrating. Most manufacturers wanted me to order at least 50 of the same design!? And the prices? Pain. Absolute pain. It felt impossible to make a variety of cute things without overcommitting or breaking the bank.

So I said nope, there has to be a better way. And that’s how Peach Prints Co was born!

No minimums. Ever.

Just affordable, low-stress custom prints for artists and small biz owners who want to create freely without the pressure.

Whether you’re launching your first sticker or just want to test out a fun idea, you’re welcome here. This biz was built for us. 🥹💖 (shameless little plug hehe~)

Drawing this took forever because, well… I’m a slowpoke when it comes to art. But I’m so proud of how it turned out, and I really hope it makes you smile!

This month’s release is:

🍑 A 10" x 4" menu-style print, my first time doing a print this big!

🍑 A 2” Bongbongie latte sticker that’s so cute I want to sip it hehe~

Each month, I send out exclusive goodies to my CutePeachClub members, art prints, stickers and all the good stuff!

If you wanna get that sweet mail and support my art while you’re at it, the club’s open and I’d love to have you there! 🥹💕 Join the Club here 🍑✨

Happy Burstday by Seventeen!

Even in Arcadia by Sleep Token, not just on repeat, it’s basically engraved in my soul. Haunting my dreams in the most delicious way possible.

Apple Cheeks

I’ve been thinking about doing Apple Cheeks’ 10-minute-a-day sketchbook challenge for 30 days. I just got myself a new sketchbook, and honestly, I’ve been craving a return to sketchbooking for ages. But between running my lil business and just life-ing, it’s felt impossible to make space for it.

This challenge feels like the perfect gentle nudge, just 10 minutes a day, no pressure, just art. It’s low-commitment, low-stress, and that’s exactly what I need right now.

Not sure if I’ll be sharing the pages yet. I don’t want to get too precious about it or start performing for the internet. I just want this to be mine. I’ll be starting on June 1st! I’ll let you know how it goes in next months blog, hehe~

Still binge-watching Pikarar videos like they’re my daily dose of emotional comfort food. Honestly, her vibe is straight-up soul therapy. (Also, shoutout to her for sparking my new fountain pen obsession!)

I just grabbed a cheap two-pack of pens to test the waters and see if I vibe with the feel. If they pass the vibe check, I’m already eyeing a Jinhao next, heard great things, and hey, if you know fountain pens, hmu! I'd love to chat! 🥹💖

It’s May and I’m from Mumbai, so mangoes! duh!

Boombucha kimchi, I loooove this, been eating it for years! It’s so goood!

Testing out holographic laminate finishes!

Fiddling with fountain pens, and flipping through a brand-new sketchbook! (So fun!)

Also, trying really hard to stop letting the fear of imperfection hold me back, because, honestly, perfect is overrated anyway.

What about you? What’s your current happy song or snack? Tell me in the comments, your recs are my serotonin. 🥹💖

Thanks for being here, for reading, for supporting my weird little world of cute chaos. Your love genuinely keeps this going.

Stay peachy and hydrated,
