Let’s Go Dino! Magnetic Game | Mudpuppy | Ages 4-10 | 2021

Mudpuppy’s on-the-go magnetic racing game features a long, 3 panel fold-out board with 2 spinners, along with dinosaur game pieces. They asked if I could create a landscape to go with the same cast of characters I developed for Mudpuppy’s Dinosaur Dominoes - see below. Using all sorts of fun foliage and hot colors, I created the above Pangaea-like landscape, and the game came together beautifully!


Dinosaur Dominoes | Mudpuppy | Ages 3-8 | 2020

Mudpuppy was developing a set of over-sized dominoes and they asked if I could create the 7 colorful dinosaur images that were needed. I cropped the characters close for a bolder look and used solid colorful backgrounds for ease of matching. On the back, I designed dinosaur footprints to use in place of dots!


T-Rex Topple! Balancing Game | Mudpuppy | 4-99 | 2021

T-Rex Topple! is a wooden balancing game that helps develop motor skills, dexterity, and hand-eye coordination. Mudpuppy provided the maximum size dimensions and I created a few dinosaur shapes that would provide a stable base and an area to stack the sticks. We went with the above version with rounded edges and a bold color palette.

Adventure Cats Mix and Match Kaleidoscope | Mudpuppy | Ages 3+ | 2020

For their kaleidoscopes, Mudpuppy wanted to have a mix and match exterior that was as fun as looking through the eyepiece! They asked that I use the space kitty from a diary I designed (see below) as a jumping off point. From there, I created 2 additional kitty explorers who’s heads could be swapped with the bodies below!


Glow In The Dark Diary | Ages 4+ | 2020

I was asked to design a cool cat astronaut for the cover of Mudpuppy’s locked journal. I used a palette that felt girly but adventurous, and designed the areas that glow when the light are turned off!

Cats Locked Diary | Ages 4+ | 2015

For this locked diary, Mudpuppy asked that I create an illustration of stacked cats with one guarding the key. The key had a holographic finish to give it a little sparkle!

Wise Owl Playing Card | Mudpuppy | Ages 4-10 | 2019

This new spin on Old Maid matches fox pairs. Don’t be the player left with the single Wise Owl card to win! For this assignment, I used some of the fox characters developed for Mudpuppy’s Guess Whooo? game (see below), plus designed a few extras that were needed - including the wise old owl!

Cats and Dogs Guess Meow Name | Mudpuppy | Ages 5-10 | 2018

A twist on the traditional Guess Who Game, this colorful cat and dog version features 18 cats and 18 dogs sporting fun accessories. I developed all 36 characters, came up with names, and laid out the game boards for this project.

Owls and Foxes Guess Whooo? Game | Mudpuppy Kids | Ages 5-10 | 2018

This quirky owl and fox Guess Whooo? game features 18 eclectic owls or 18 sly foxes dressed in a variety of outfits. Same as the above Cats and Dogs version, I developed all the characters, names, and game boards!

Road Trip Bingo | Mudpuppy | Ages 5-10 | 2018

Road Trip Bingo helps families to take the fun on the go! Spot the items on your Bingo board while on the road. The first player to spot 5 items in a row wins! I developed 3 unique playing boards and over 30 icons for this item.
