About

Hi again...glad you are here. As I mentioned earlier, I am the owner and creator of JC Designs. Here's a bit more about JC Designs.

I started JC Designs in 2019 with just 4 holiday cards featuring an original photograph and continued to sell holiday cards for the next 3 seasons as a side hustle to share my photography with the world. Then in 2022 when the war began in Ukraine, we decided to put our hearts and head together to help our friends (Oz's first family in his home country) trapped in the middle of the bombings. Oz and I went to work and created his first greeting card that we used to fundraise to help our friends escape the war. His card was a huge hit and he loved modeling for it so we began adding more cards featuring him. I also started drawing (doodling) more during the war to help destress and cope with what was going on with our friends. I turned a few of these doodles into stickers to see how they would be received.

I was all over the place with all my original designs. My brain just couldn't stay focused on one thing and I needed to calm my brain down. So in 2024, I rebranded JC Designs to focus more on fun, vibrant, and sometimes quirky designs for the pet lovers...from greeting cards and stickers. I then added new products (tote bags, tshirt, sweatshirts, etc) featuring my artwork and now offer over 120 designs across 6 product categories.

Oz and I were the force behind JC Designs, but in January 2024 we added a new assistant to our staff, Rocky. He is our wild and spunky little boy and is a gem from our same friends from Ukraine now living safely in Europe! They are an inspiration to many of our designs and an inspiration to me personally. They fought so hard to escape the war and not leave ONE of their animals behind. Never did they complain about their situation even though their struggles were and still are hard. I look up to them and use this as motivation to work hard in my small business - which they were a pivotal part in the growth of my designs.

All items are made with a smile (well sometimes tears too) and pawed with approval by Oz & Rocky!!

We love what we do and it is our mission to help spread kindness and joy around the world while continuing to give back to our community and those in need.
