Photo of some risograph-printed greetings cards laid flat on a dark blue surface. They feature colourful illustrations of dogs, cats and people. Photo of an off-white T-shirt with a screen printed design on it. The design is an illustration of a bear-like animal lying on its back with the word "URGH" above it in bubble writing. The design is printed in dark blue except for the bear's nose, which is pink. Photo of a person's hand holding three vinyl stickers. Each one features a different colourful illustration. One features two animal characters riding on a large dog. Another is a big cat face. The third is a rabbit rolling its eyes and saying "NOPE".
