Evergreen Gleam
Hola, I’m Karla Stelling, the designer behind Mod Ink!
I’m a Graphic and Surface Pattern Designer based outside Washington, D.C.
I was born and raised in Venezuela, where my childhood home — adorned with Mid-Century Modern decor — sparked my love for bold shapes and vibrant colors. These influences inspire the geometric, and playful designs I create today.
With over 20 years of experience—10 of those focused on surface pattern design—I bring bold, trendy, and playful patterns to life across a variety of industries. My work is showcased on stationery, gifts, home decor, and apparel and can be found on platforms like Society6, Printify, and Zazzle.
Let’s add some joy to the world, one pattern at a time!
A bold and cheerful holiday collection that captures the essence of Mid-Century Modern design. With striking geometric patterns and a rich color palette, it offers a fresh take on traditional holiday motifs. Perfect for adults who appreciate sophisticated and stylish designs.
Whether you're looking to add a touch of retro flair to your holiday celebrations or simply want to elevate your gift-giving game, Mod Merry has something for everyone.
