These Stickers are Shrimply Amazing: A Junior Illustration Project by Carly Watson (2021)

Back in middle school, puns were one of my favorite things. I used to draw little puns on random scraps of paper, practice my calligraphy, and make them as cute as I could. I had multiple “pun boards” that decorated my room. Since then, I have chosen my favorites and condensed all of them into one pun board, but I still enjoy seeing them. I was inspired by these silly puns for my stickers because I thought it would be super cool to see my cute pun doodles look a little more professional and be in a sticker- something I could give to friends and family! Even though I did struggle with learning how to work with Illustrator, I soon grew to love it and the freedom it gave me. I also learned that it is not worth it to take short cuts- they will come back to make your life much harder in the long run! It was so much more efficient to learn how to do things the right way. I am now harnessed with a greater appreciation for artists who put in so much time and effort into their art, a greater knowledge of how to use tools, and more ideas with stickers I could create in the future.
