Illustrations for kids products and toys

Make your product a favorite with your customers with my colorful illustrations! From toys to craft products and from fun gadgets to stationery: I love to provide your product and packaging or display with a unique and playful illustration or pattern. Think of illustrations for puzzles, stamps, craft products, coloring books, memory games, and more.

With my extensive experience in designing illustrations for children’s products, I am the right person to bring your products and packaging to life. Whether it’s the window box, display, trade show booth, or the product itself: I can achieve the desired result with various techniques, such as vector or digital illustration.

Need help with the technical aspect of the design? The manufacturers’ templates and diecuts are familiar to me. I also enjoy brainstorming to make the 3D end result a success. Clients have told me that they find me a valuable sparring partner in this regard.

Of course, I help with fun and cheerful illustrations, but I’m also happy to assist you with graphic design. Together, we ensure that your product is loved by your customers.

How does it work?

1. Contact

Please email me with more info about your project.

2. Introduction

We’ll schedule an introductory meeting (via Zoom or live) to discuss your needs and goals. I’ll make a quote and see what I can do within your budget.

3. Sketches

I begin each project with sketches for the final product. These sketches give you a good idea of the final result. By default, there is room for 1 round of revisions for the sketches.

4. Design

Getting to work on the final product! In this phase, I bring the sketches to life in color. Again, there is room for 1 round of feedback.

5. Completion

At the end of the project, you will receive the files in the desired formats.

They went before you:

I had the pleasure of working with Tamara on a Christmas coloring book with stickers. I can only recommend Tamara highly, as she is a very professional and easy communicator. From calculating the project, to sketches till the final data delivery, the whole process was smooth and easy for both of us.
Tamara had wonderful ideas for the designs and cover, but also was very open about the input I gave.
Her graphical as well as her technical skills made the whole process easy, as she delivers „the whole package“. Illustrations, Typo and Graphic design, as well as preparing the files for printing – she is capable of doing it all, which makes it easy for publishers, as you only have to work with one designer instead of two.
Her illustrations are very cute and on point for the targeted age group.

Thank you, Tamara!

From product design to the final artwork for various packaging, Tamara delivers us everything herself. The collaboration is always very pleasant, and we are continually impressed by Tamara's creativity and professionalism. Both her illustrations and the color implementation in our children's products consistently convince us and enchant both young and old.

Tamara helped us with the Winnipeg fabric collection. We have experienced the collaboration as very pleasant. Tamara adjusted the patterns and the color palette so that they were suitable for our screen printing machines. The collaboration was very good and we were completely satisfied with everything.

Tamara is super creative in what she does. It's great to collaborate with her. She often understands the assignment you outline right away and delivers promptly. She also always clearly indicates when she can have something made. Usually, she can complete a task in a short amount of time. I also appreciate that she can deliver the illustrations in a file format, allowing us to determine how we want to use them ourselves. This versatility enables us to deploy the illustrations across various aspects of our marketing. Her graphic expertise was also instrumental in a project for Speel-Inn, where she provided several examples for a visually graphic character.

What Does it Cost?

I would like to give you a standard price, but no project I do is ‘standard’. The price for an illustration or project depends on a number of factors, such as:

  • the size of the assignment (quantity of illustrations & graphic design)
  • The style of the illustrations
  • The execution (size of the illustration and things like color usage)
  • Commercial or non-profit
  • License agreements
  • The other agreements we make (quantity of sketches and rounds of adjustments)

Most projects start from € 1000 excl. VAT, but that is a guideline. Therefore it is best to contact me and we will go through all your requirements. I am happy to discuss the possibilities with you!
