Finders Keepers: Wacom Inkling
Source: Youtube Wacom has been making pressure sensitive digital drawing tablets for over 25 years now. The tablets allow you to use a stylus pen to more organically draw on a computer. In 2009 I purchased my first tablet, and Jamie and I have used it on a number of projects. It’s very effective, but definitely takes a lot of …
The Face of Type “C”
Last month was Jamie’s favorite, and September is mine. And it’s my favorite for the same reason: this month is my birthday! This month’s “Face of Type” is our personal favorite, Clarendon. It’s a clean, slab-serif font named after the Clarendon Press in Oxford. It was the first typeface to be registered and patented, but expired after three years and …
Charting the Beatles
I just recently came across these illustrations of the Beatles created by Oliver Barrett for his Charting the Beatles project. Aren’t they just lovely? I’m starting to run out of space on the walls of our little apartment, but I think I could make a little more room for these. Prints are available at imagekind.
Wedding invitation

The theme is “Your City” and you’re supposed to design a shirt that represents your favorite city. Well, Jamie and I have been wanting to design something for Traverse City (my hometown and where we were married) pretty much ever since our wedding. …
A Vintage Birthday
My birthday has come and gone and I’m yet another year older. Remember back in July when I was trying to think of a theme for my party? Well I had decided that this year I would throw a vintage party! I had such a fun time planing everything. I even sent out invitations in the mail (which I haven’t done since …

You can go check it out by clicking the design button up on the navigation pane, or by clicking here. Here are a few screenshots of a couple of the pages. Since …
Client Work: The NAB Triennial Conference
Thank goodness it’s friday! It’s been a busy week for us. Jake and I have been working on getting up a gallery of all our design work on our blog. It’s been a long time coming, but my super savvy husband has been able to code most of it in the evenings this past week. We still have a little more work …
