And I Agree! For 20 years I have had a passion for creating custom designs, but I only recently decided to try to make a business out of my favorite hobby. This past year I have created PKCD Custom Apparel and Home Goods,👕🖼 All Skate-Custom Skateboard Line, 🛹and Face Case-Custom Phone Cases. 📱 But my favorite jobs by far are the custom designs I get the opportunity to create straight from the creative mind of my clients. The feeling of presenting someone with their initial catalog of designs and realizing how excited they are because it is just right, is so very rewarding. It forms a connection between myself and my client that is so charged with good energy it fills my space long after I have completed their project.

In honor of my daughter Ping, my mission this past year has been to focus on adding kindness, laughter, gratitude, and good vibes🌻🌼🌷 to my life and the lives of those around me with the hopes that the ripple might be felt throughout the universe🌌... and I believe that the designer/client experience has helped me immensely in my mission to "Raise the Vibe"... 

I further strive to "Raise the Vibe"... through the happiness that our designs and our products bring to our clients as well as the beautiful connection we make with each client we serve. This whole endeavor is my attempt at adding positivity, freedom, and personal meaning into not only my own life; but that of the universal equation. I have tried to include unique, useful, quality products that will perhaps enable you to achieve a happier, kinder, comfier,  and more connected experience by making your days just a little brighter, 🌞 your activities 🤹🏽‍♀️ a bit more fun, your landings a little softer 🛌🏽....your vibration 🎆just a little higher..

I am honored to have the opportunity to design products for you to enjoy as you love and care for one another and your individual selves, as you actively and positively participate in life. I want to help you to be charitable and proactive in your kindness. I wish to be an integral part of your small business dream, helping you build your brand identity and improving our communities by fostering strong local businesses. I love when I get to design a custom package for those that are celebrating beautiful life moments such as a wedding, a birth, or an anniversary. But I am especially honored to offer Personalized, Curated Memorial Packages for celebrating the lives of your loved ones that have passed away. I recently suffered a great and traumatic loss when my partner passed away after being struck by a car while crossing the street on an otherwise normal Friday evening. I was astonished at the limited offerings for memorial designs-everything was so...."typical" and did not represent him or his lifestyle in any way- and the extreme price gouging that was customary for any product titled memorial, remembrance, or funeral. It was right then that I decided that custom curated, non-traditional memorial designs offered at price 25% less than "everyday" products rather than 100-200% more were going to be added to my already extensive design service offerings. Think Tie-dyed DeadHead, Psychedelic, Punk Rock, Tattoo Enthusiasts, Irish Whiskey Drinking, Jagerbomb shooting, 420 celebrating, River Ratting, Music loving, Motorcycle Cruising, Pony Tailed, Pitt Bull Parent or completely traditional doves flying up to heaven Memorial photo boards, keepsake cards, and programs, offered always at a discount with the same empathy and heartfelt care I poured into designing Kev's Memorial Ensemble.

I wish to create an online experience and a community that promotes peace,☮ reciprocal and charitable kindness, safety and protection for all living things.🐱🦝🐹🐴🐼🦏🐲🦧 I hope we can focus on positive experiences while spreading love and kindness🤡🤓👨‍👩‍👦‍👦💙💜💛💚🧡💘not just to your immediate tribe but to the whole world 🌎and everyone in it. I can feel my personal vibe elevate each time I am included in my clients lives as they CELEBRATE FUN, SILLINESS, LIFE EVENTS, LOVE,  AND WONDERFUL MEMORIES!!!! That is why I appreciate each of you so very much!!💋❌⭕❌⭕

Post 3-PingKarma's Raise the Vibe Initiative

Raise the Vibe....is a PingKarma Intl Kindness Initiative. Born of the desire to form an elevated vibrational connection this initiative was imagined before the idea for a custom design business and I before I dreamt up the name PingKarma  . The signal for searching for connection is referred to as a "Ping "-which just happens to be my daughter's nickname since 2 years old, so the fact that I  thought of none of that BEFORE choosing the business name or her nickname is so magical it took my breath away when I finally noticed the "connections"      

1. First and foremost, we will be promoting unity and a sense of connection with all living creatures, staunchly opposing anyone that purposely or willfully chooses to cause harm to other humans or animals, and trying to help those that rescue and save abused and neglected souls (of all species). Basically, we hope to help to touch lives of those less fortunate, those that have not experienced the kinder side of the universe, those that have carried their trauma inside their minds and their pain inside their hearts. To play a small part in positively providing those that have suffered with as much love and hope as possible is our mission. Through small but deliberate acts of kindness and giving back we hope to show those that have suffered neglect and abuse that kind, loving, compassionate, caring humans are not a fairy tale. That there is a place for them among us, where they will finally get to experience what it feels like to vibrate at a gloriously high frequency. We hope to inspire many with this mission and spread this message across the globe.  

This lofty mission starts with how we run our business and treat our customers. 

What this means is that we

2. Diligently research our product and print service providers for ethical and moral business behavior.  We look for partners that have certifications from organizations such as WRAP,  The Fair Labor Association (FLA), and Sustainable Jungle. Click here for a list of other organizations that audit and certify trade and manufacturing. 

3. We make a concerted effort to NEVER partner with manufacturers or businesses that support forced or child labor, indentured slaves, or victims of human trafficking.

4. We investigate all companies we work with to ensure they are ethical and honest in their business practices and  in the use of your data and are committed to protecting  your privacy and your personal information. 

5. We choose companies with a commitment to sustainability and we try to offer sustainable product offerings.

6. We will give a portion of our profits when we are able to many kind causes throughout the globe. In addition, any cause or organization on our Be Kind to All Kind List receives a discount up to 100% off of their design service package. Anyone can submit a cause or organization to our Be Kind to All Kind List by using our Comments Section. Any causes and organizations that are doing great kind work around the world we will happily add. Eventually, we hope that supporting these important causes will be the main focus of this business. 

7. We do not discriminate. We promote unity and celebrate our similarities not our differences.

8. Every human and living creature on this planet deserves kindness and that is what we promote.

9. We vow to never profit by capitalizing on your losses, wins, celebrations, or remembrances. We will never charge an inflated price for our services or our products based on what life event you are hosting a gathering for. We may in the cases of memorials and fundraising offer discounts or free design services as our way of alleviating some of your burden or increasing the impact of your efforts. Our flexible pricing allows for discounts and pro bono services on a case by case basis so never hesitate to ask if pricing is an issue. We would rather design for you for free than not have the opportunity to vibe with you at all.
