Something just for fun! I haven't made any fun products in so long. In anticipation for the MoCCA Art festival I'm going to be participating at in April (did I mention that?), it is a great excuse to finally make some fun stuff, and also going back to New York City to see my friends and family. I can't believe I haven't been back since last July. Its been too long!
Making 1" buttons doesn't seem to have enough space for me, so I printed some backer cards to make a complete illustration. Plus there is something so satisfying about designing the whole package.
The thing with going ahead and making a bunch of inventory is not knowing what will sell and what won't. I struggle with that alot as I realized "I'm not my own customer."
I'd like to take a poll: which one do you like? Super Cat or Evil Robot? Please leave me a comment and let me know!

What a cute idea to make the backer for the button part of the illustration! I like both but that evil robot is super awesome! Good luck!
1 vote for Evil Robots
You did a fantastic job on the buttons and packaging. I really like both of them but I vote for the the Super cat.
Oh geez I need an evil robot :D (I think you have my vote)
Arrrgghhh! So hard to decide! Evil Robot probably edges out Super-Cat just ever so slightly...
Cuteness!
Like them both... but Evil Robot is my fave!
Robots all the way!
I love them both! If I had to choose... Super Cat!
Great idea!! I love Super Cat xx
It's so hard to choose they are both really awesome. I'm going with Robot because I like the color palette because of my own personal tastes.
Love 'em both, but hey, I am a former cat owned, so I'm all for Super Cat!
i've never been to MOCCA but i vend in small press at SDCC and i am gonna say that both will do well, if you can swing a reasonable amount of the two. i strongly suspect that people will want one of each if your price point is good. but...also, geeks love robots and i think the robot head stands very well on it's own.
p.s. the backing boards are great. these are really beautifully done and i am sure you will sell tons, whatever you decide to take.
Well I like Super Cat! furry over robots usually wins for me ;) LOVE your backings with the buttons as heads!
Such an awesome idea to have the buttons mounted on the backers to continue the illustration! Brilliant! It's a tough one but I think I have to go with Super cat! Did you create your buttons thru Zazzle?
Oh my... so hard to pick one!!! I think I'll go with Super Cat! Super cute idea Jannie!! :o)
both are too cute! You'll clearly have a package deal, right? For those of us who can't pick just one?
Super cool, Jannie! What a great idea creating the backers. Very nice touch. I don't know if I could actually pick just one since I love super animals and evil cute things! Buuuut, I'll go with the robot.
Have a great weekend!
Love them both! But I have to go with Super Cat!
Evil Robot!
oh Jannie!!! we love them both!!! you are so clever...and package design is so much fun!!!
Looks fantastic Jannie! The backing really adds to it so much. I'm generally a cat person but in this instance I think I will have to vote for evil mr. robot!
Dang! Why is this so hard! Okay I say the cat!
Jannie, I LOVE these! OMG if I were going to be nearby, I would buy BOTH of them! They're both favorites...I couldn't choose. And you know, if you have any leftover, you can always put extras on your estsy store. They'll get snapped up quickly! These are adorable and I LOVE the backing you made...genius that only comes from the great chickengirl's brain ;)
Love them both - the packaging is great:) If I had to choose though, the evil robot would win!
love them both, but when you see the cat head without the body -- that mask and no sense of the cape -- it could be a robber cat or a superhero cat. robot is robot, and where my vote goes.
love them both!! I am a cat person so I vote for Super Cat!!
I *love* them both...so hard to decide! The Super Cat is a slight favorite.
These are brilliant! I vote for SUPER CAT!!
Oh my gosh, the backer cards are so clever! You get extra points for that bit of creativity. I'm digging evil robots.
Both are fab, but if I had to pick just one, then I go for Super Cat.
