Vapor Qualquer I was talking with my friend over dinner last night about how we both seem to a bit overwhelmed and a little worn out by everything going on in our lives. We both have a lot on our plate right now. When that happens I usually have a hard time functioning. There is too much to do so I can’t do …
Wedding Invitation Inspiration
Over the weekend I got to sit down and talk wedding invitations with my best friend. I love working with her. We have very similar styles, she gives me a lot of creative freedom to design what I think is best, and while we are brainstorming ideas we sometimes get distracted looking at shoes or plaining how we are going …
Pantone Tarts
Yesterday was all about CMYK. Let’s switch it up and do Pantone today. French Food designer, Emilie de Griottes put together these dessert tarts that resemble Pantone color swatches. It’s color you can eat right up! My favorite Pantone color is Pantone 2738C. I could see that as some kind of blueberry lemon tart. Do you have a favorite Pantone color? It’s …
CMYK Wedding
The key to any great party is a good theme. I would say Rebekah and David have the theme of all themes. What could be better than a CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow and black) wedding? It really is perfect for any design couple who wants to show their inner art nerd. They applied the theme in such fun and clever …
Embroidered Typography
I alway love finding a new craft medium to learn and experiment with. I never would have guessed embroidery would ever be one of those.

There are enough letters there to inspire …

Essential to Creativity
Source: Marius Roosendaal Isn’t it funny how you can have a little lull in life, and just when everything has slowed down and you feel you’ve caught your breath, a million and one things are added to your to do list? I’m not trying to complain; I would definitely rather be busy designing rather than twiddling my thumbs. It’s just …
Twelve Before Twelve Update
It’s almost February and I still have not updated you on my 12 Before 12 list. Looking back I would probably have not done half of these things if I didn’t make the list. Having it was a constant reminder and motivator for me. There is nothing quite like being able to check something off. Here is a reminder of what was on my …

I love that sound. Though it sure does make it hard to get up and leave the comfort of your cozy …
To Resolve Project
Did you make any resolutions this year? I didn’t but these posters make me wish I did. They sure do make the daunting idea of making a resolution a lot more fun. The To Resolve Project was started by Chris Streger a few years back and now a handful of other artists have gotten involved by making their own resolutions into some …
