A couple weeks ago, Jason Schwartz challenged me to do A Project A Week (APAW): something that I have since included in my Design Resolutions for the year. The past two weeks have been spent finishing up projects that were already in progress. This week, I hope to start working on some new work.
Week 1: Prost! […]

If you’ve been a long-time reader of this blog, you may have noticed me hinting here and there about getting to work on exciting projects that I’m not able to post about until they go live. This past week, Kansas City’s own Hallmark Cards kicked off their year-long centennial celebration: something I have been bursting […]

The past month was a blur of working, getting ready for the holidays, and travel, but the kickoff to all of the fun and mayhem was the Firebelly Holiday Shop. As I mentioned last month, I contributed a booth showcasing embroidered goods and illustration prints/postcards. I was really excited that my good friend and fellow […]

Well, tonight I headed over to Firebelly with all of my wares to set up my little table for their Pop-Up Holiday Shop. Unfortunately, (fortunately?) I bought a car last week, so between car hunting and Thanksgiving I wasn’t able to finish all of the projects I had planned. That said, the ones that I […]

To continue the theme of November: Design Month, I found out in late October or so that Firebelly would be hosting their annual Holiday Pop-Up Shop to benefit their Reason to Give charity.

I was thrilled when Food Network Mag approached me for the use of the photo (see […]

When I was laid off a couple of months ago, there were about 14 people who lost their job during that round of layoffs. After commiserating over coffee for a bit, we immediately started sharing resources. There’s nothing like hard times to bring people together. For my part, I offered to create business cards free […]

I just saw that my recycled business cards I posted about last week are currently featured on The Design Cubicle! Brian held a call for entries for his post on 50 Creative Business Cards of 50 Graphic Designers, and mine was chosen as one of them! I’m in excellent company too: among them is former […]

I’m planning a job-hunting trip to New York City later this week, and realized that I was lower on business cards than I thought I was. In a way, the timing is perfect as I’m in the process of updating my cards and printing them along with the cards I’m designing for several people who […]
