I’m really surprised that I’ve never featured the work of Emily McDowell on the blog before. Emily creates beautiful hand-lettered and illustrated prints and cards – many of which are emblazoned with self-esteem-boosting, pep talk hollering motivational quotes. They are all so lovely but these are my favourites.

1. Just always be waiting for me.
2. Be yourself.
3. Strangers on the Internet.
4. No-one can make you feel inferior
