Dr. Seuss Clip Art Lawsuit...Yikes!

Well I've been hearing this go around the blogging community and I'm not sure as to what is 100% true or not.  But apparently creation or use of any Dr. Seuss related clip art is illegal and now Scrappin' Doodles is being sued because of it.  To get some more information about this topic, I would recommend reading a post by the 3AM Teacher.

So, for now, I have taken my Dr. Seuss clip art off of my Etsy Shop.  :(


I am really sorry to anyone who bought it.  I had no idea that this would be any sort of issue with the Dr. Seuss franchise.  I would just recommend to be careful with how you use it.  I think it is considered "illegal" to claim it as "Dr. Seuss" related.  So when making any activities or printables in the future, do not associate your OR my work with Dr. Seuss or any of it's characters.

Sorry again!

Wittle Worms Clip Art Set

Here is a new, different styled clip art set!  I tried to make them have a little grain and texture!  :)   But these are just some cute "Wittle" Worms!   Lol...think of a cute kid saying this with some type of lisp.  Hehe!  And of course you've gotta have the worm crawling out of the apple!  YUM!  NOT!  :)  This set is available on my Etsy shop for $2.50!

Custom Blogspot Layouts & New Clip Art!

I've been working like a fiend making clip art sets, borders, letters, & yes...even BLOGSPOT LAYOUTS!  :)

This first set is for a behavior chart that someone requested.  She works in a classroom where the majority of the students are ESOL...maybe even all of them...?  I'm not sure!  BUT!  She wanted to jazz up her behavior chart with some good visuals for those language learners!  These are all her ideas but created by me.  :)  She also uses some type of money system that correlates with each part of the behavior chart.  It is available for $3 on Etsy!

I also made these Polka Dot borders to go along with the behavior chart above.  But I decided to sell them separately so that you could just purchase one or the other if you'd like!  These 8 Frames are available for $2.00!

Then I decided to make an Alphabet letter set.  These are letters that I use allllll the time in my classroom when I want to make something stand out.  I will make another set of these in the future with polka dots, stripes, etc. inside of the bubbly part!  You can get these for $2.50!

Now this last part is a layout that I made for Laura over at Peace, Love, & First Grade.  She wanted a new layout that went along with her theme and this is what I came up with!  I will be installing it for her at the beginning of this week but this is what it will look like!!!  If you would like a custom layout that is 100% unique for you, let me know!  I would love to make one for you!  This blogspot layout package includes a header, background, post icon, signature/divider icon, button for website, and FREE installation!  All of that for $30!  :)   You can send me an email at mrslaurenthompson@gmail.com if you are interested!

Well, lots of love friends!  I hope you enjoy the new stuff!  I will try to work on some more stuff for y'all this week!  :)
