🎈 LOVE THESE!! 🎈

I can't tell you the amount of giddy that comes over me when I see a notification for a new Substack from 🖤 TODAY'S SPECIAL🧡 AH! My cousin just recently had a baby and I collaged a card for her newest little, Sally Jane, with pictures and words from Chicka Chicka Boom Boom & Growing Vegetable Soup. 🍅 It was a Zen project for me and like you said, a special way to show them I care. 🫶🏼

Thanks, and hope you're doing well! I'm still on cloud nine from meeting at The Rabbit Hole. 🐰

I always make notes in my calendar when my friends go through tough or exciting times so that when the anniversary of it comes around, I remember to check in on them ❤️

Love seeing how you work and sharing snippets with my students. I shared Don’t Trust Fish illustrated by Dan Santat with a class today, said, “illustrated by one of my favorites”, and one student said, “…but he’s not Christian Robinson!” 😂 May have gone too far with our illustrator study of you!

I just bought one of the birthday cards at the SF MOMA gift shop and I know just the lucky person to gift it to. Thank you for your art and heart Christian!

I love your work. The cards are beautiful! I can think of occasions coming up and people I know to give each one of them. My favorite way of letting people know I care is with little gifts and/or notes, a moment to connect to say I’m thinking of you.

Have been buying your cards from RCC for various occasions over the years and some I save just for my collection because they are so cute 😌
