OMG, look at my new shopping bag! @pbphuong and the team at @socalgrantmaker sent it to me. We've been working together on some event branding and this is a little peek at some of the output. I just went to Hmart and took this bag in its maiden voyage! It is holding a modest and normal amount of meat. It's so cool to see ways my digital illustrations manifest into tangible things.

This was part of the visual identity of @socalgrantmaker's REIMAGINE Multiracial Democracy conference earlier this month. ♥️♥️

I'm so excited to share this bit of packaging I designed for @redboatfishsauce! I am such a Red Boat stan, and it means so much that we get to do these kinds of things together.

This is a swaggy box that is getting sent out to food influencers. Inside are Red Boat goodies. Watch the latest ep of Stacy's Unboxing Channel to see what's inside! 🐟🎣🤤

Happy New Year (almost)! Chúc mừng năm mới (almost)!

This was done for @nwasianweekly. I do a lunar new year illustration for them just about every year. I used to work there as its editor and working at a community newspaper was the most expansive experience for a fresh-faced, idealistic college grad.

This week, after more than four decades of being voices for API and Chinese communities, @nwasianweekly and it's sister the Seattle Chinese Post both published their final print issues this week. NWAW will continue online-only, and we're saying bye to SCP.

It's not quite the new year yet, so right now, those who celebrate are appropriately in the mode of tying up loose ends and preparing for renewal.

This illustration was done for the very last print issue of NWAW (out on stands RN). 🙏 The illo is content-rich cuz I learned at one point that you need to jam up every inch of space above the fold or else it's my fault that readership drops. 😜🥰 Flip thru to see the details.

😸🐱Year of the Cat Lucky Envelopes. 🐈🙀🐈‍⬛🐾

Featuring cute little kitties playing on ginormous cat towers made of Vietnamese food.

Tết aka the Lunar New Year is on Jan 22 and it ushers in lots of party times, ancestral worship and communing, CLEANING AND EATING, and restarting refreshed and renewed. For my fam, it's the biggest holiday of the year.

How to use envelopes:

😸 If you're an elder or a boss, fill with crisp lucky money and give away all that good luck!

🐱 If you're a "con," an "em," or a "nó," hold out your hands and get ready to catch these lucky envelopes filled with money!

🙀 If you're me, give these envelopes to your mom, have her put money in one. Have her give it to you. Take the money. And then give her the envelope back.

Stock on these bbs dwindling down. Order soon to get before Jan. 22!

This is the fifth and final illustration for this

This is the fifth and final illustration for this year's li xi lucky envelope set, celebrating the Year of the Cat! I have been elated to hear about how many of you have been failing trivia contests and going around correctly telling people that it's actually the Year of the Cat! 👍👍 🐈🐈🐈

Illo description: Pandan jelly kitties hanging a riotous good time in chè cat tower. Chè is a category of Vietnamese sweet-snack soups puddings. In this illo, there are chè bà màu, chè nhãn, chè chuối, and chè khoai môn with jackfruit. It was hard to narrow down which to feature. The illo also features chrysanthemums, which I have JUST realized are the same flowers as the MUMS at the grocery store. (Did you know?!)

You can buy the entire set of 5 lì xì lucky envelopes by tapping on pic or by visit link in my bio ⏩ @stacynguyencreative
