About Us

Where Did it Begin?

Crowded Cat Studio, formerly Sincerely Marlie, started in the Fall of 2022. Marlie, our owner, is always drawing and decided to use some of their art to create a sticker. From there, we grew into an official LLC with over 90+ sticker designs, stationary, and so much more!

Who is Marlie?

Raised in Southern WV, Marlie is an epidemiology intern and college student by day and an artist by night. They live in Hurricane, WV with their spouse of 10 years and their 9 loving rescue cats.

Meet the Studio Cats

Ferdinand is the eldest of the clan but his humorous antics would never let you guess his age.

Millicent is a sassy and independent girly. She loves everyone...except that Franny girl!

Malaki is the sweetest and biggest boy of the group. You can find him snuggling with any one of his siblings day or night.

Franklin only actually answers the the name "Beans"...don't question it, just accept it.

Maxine is lightly an assassin for an underground agency, but she gives great cuddles so we keep her around.

Jax will slap a cat who dares take "his spot" wherever that is that day.

Poor, sweet, chunky Francine...she's thicc but she's cute!

Amryn is the smallest of the cat army and just wants to cuddle with her mama.

Our Values

Equality

CCS believes in equality for all people. No matter your race, gender identity, or sexual orientation, you should be allotted the same opportunities. This is why our products don't shy away from "sensitive" topics. In our studio, all are welcome.

Creativity

CCS values creativity over mass production. Unlike many other small businesses, everything we create is 100% hand drawn by our owner.

Color

CCS was born from the boredom with beige everything! We believe in standing out and being bold - in both art and everyday life. Be enthusiastically you!
