  • My Monday Mantra. Raise yo’ hand if ya needed this reminder today 🙋🏼‍♀️ ‘Cuz I sure did. . I say this little mantra every time I feel overwhelmed or inadequate. It reminds me that I don’t have to do it all right now. It reminds me to show up, exactly as I am, exactly where I am. It’s reminds me to aim for progress and growth, not perfection. It reminds to keep taking small steps forward. . Here’s a grace-filled week, friends!. . . . . #risingtidesociety #calledtobecreative #creativityfound #creativelifehappylife #christiancreative #mycreativebiz #propelwomen #doitfortheprocess #createeveryday #waketomake #lifeofanartist #communityovercompetition #theimperfectboss #fwportfolio #seekinspirecreate #whitespacefall #typematters #dontquityourdaydream #ipadlettering #quoteoftheday #letteringleague #showyourwork #letteringlove #womensupportingwomen #womenwhodraw #letteringdaily #handlettering #quotestoliveby #inspirationalquotes #mondaymotivation
  • Surprise, I have a face 😜 Jk, jk, but really though, there’s been some new faces popping in so I wanted to introduce myself a little bit. But I want to get to know you too! So let’s do some #fridayintroductions, shall we?. Hi, I’m Kercia 👋🏻 and here are a few of my favorite things (in no particular order): pizza, tacos, coffee, my nephew, Jesus, grace, books, olive green, black olives, and broadway musicals. I love sleeping in, playing board games, and all things vintage. I'm a designer and artist (even though calling myself an artist sometimes makes me feel like an imposter, I've decided I'm going to own it) and I create handlettered encouragements and cute illustrations. And though I don't show as much as I should here on Insta, I also help businesses create beautiful brands and collateral, like templates, workbooks, and the like. Before I even knew what design was I fell in love with creating scrapbook layouts and documenting memories. That ultimately lead me to pursue a degree in design because I wanted to be the person that designed scrapbooking stickers (and secretly, I still sort of do...along with a million other things 😛...anyone else struggle with shiny object syndrome?!). My creative journey has been a windy road and honestly, I'm just figuring out as I go. Sometimes I think I should be further along than I am, but truthfully, past me would be so proud of present me. So, I'm going to choose to embrace my own pace and keep truckin' along. Your turn! What are your favorite things? What's your favorite board game? How did you get your start in your field? Tell me all the things, friend! . . . . . #risingtidesociety #calledtobecreative #creativityfound #creativelifehappylife #christiancreative #mycreativebiz #doitfortheprocess #createeveryday #waketomake #lifeofanartist #theimperfectboss #seekinspirecreate #illustrationdaily #dontquityourdaydream #womenofillustration #showyourwork #illustratorsofinstagram #womensupportingwomen #womenwhodraw #moreillustrations #dailydoodle #creativewomen #flashesofdelight #handlettering #minnesotaartist #propelwomen #fueledwithheart #communityovercompetition #bloomyellow
  • Boo! Popping in late this evening to wish you a Happy Halloween! The scariest thing that happened to me today is that my internet died for a half hour. 👻 Hope you all had a spooktacular day! . . . . . #risingtidesociety #calledtobecreative #creativityfound #creativelifehappylife #christiancreative #mycreativebiz #dailydrawing #doitfortheprocess #createeveryday #waketomake #lifeofanartist #printandpattern #theimperfectboss #minnesotamade #fwportfolio #seekinspirecreate #whitespacespring #illustrationdaily #dontquityourdaydream #ipaddrawing #quoteoftheday #womenofillustration #showyourwork #illustratorsofinstagram #womensupportingwomen #womenwhodraw #moreillustrations #dailydoodle #happyhalloween #halloweenillustration
  • Hey friends, it’s been a hot minute since I posted but last week I spend a week in the woods of Canada at the @theimperfectbosses camp. And goodness, it was amazing. It’s hard to put into words exactly what happened to us, but it was nothing short of life-changing. I went to camp unsure of my abilities, embarrassed of my crooked and slow journey, filled with comparison, and scared that I wouldn’t measure up to people’s expectations. I was nervous that my seemingly introverted self would feel lonely and that I wouldn’t connect with anyone on a deep level. I didn’t think I was strong enough to bare my soul to strangers. But I walked away from camp knowing that I am heard and seen, loved and accepted. I am worthy and capable, exactly where I am. My voice and my story are worthy of being shared. I have a newfound sense of confidence and trust in my journey and abilities. And on top of that, I connected with and became friends with so many inspiring and imperfect women, who are so full of encouragement, truth, support, and courage. Oh, and I might have realized that I am much more extroverted than I thought. And that I am truly never alone in my doubts, fears, and struggles. Talk about being transformed. And you know what? It all started from getting outside my comfort zone. Like, way outside my comfort zone. So, I’m popping in your feeds today to encourage you to face your fears, take the risk, share your story, and get out of your comfort zone. Transformation, confidence, and connection are waiting for you. You got this. Oh, and just a reminder, if you ever feel alone, are struggling with debilitating doubts or fear or just need some encouragement or a high-five, I got you. I’m just DM away. . . . . #risingtidesociety #calledtobecreative #creativityfound #creativelifehappylife #christiancreative #mycreativebiz #propelwomen #doitfortheprocess #createeveryday #waketomake #lifeofanartist #letteringlove #theimperfectboss #minnesotamade #fwportfolio #seekinspirecreate #whitespacespring #typematters #dontquityourdaydream #ipadlettering #quoteoftheday #letteringleague #showyourwork #womensupportingwomen #letteringdaily

  • Day 98/100 | Shoutout to my little 7-year-old cousin who told me exactly what to draw today, including that adorable little frame around the flower. She even helped me draw in a few details.
