Yesterday and today I’m working on a bunch of business card projects. Yesterday was a lot of cutting, today is a lot of printing… What are you guys working on this last week of summer? :)

While everyone is hunkering down for the hurricane on the east coast, I thought I’d share some bright photos to carry myself through the stormy weekend. Yesterday I printed the final cover in my series with the wonderful Angela Liguori of Studio Carta, this was my favorite of the three. :) I’ll post some more [...]

Yesterday I spent the afternoon in New York, walking around Soho with one of my dear friends on her birthday. I also had a chance to drop by the awesome Etsy offices in Brooklyn to hand deliver some cards. So nice to catch up with everyone. And while I was goofing off in the city, [...]

I snuck away to Sea Girt, NJ for two days this week – the second of my three mini-break vacations of the summer. Now I’m printing all weekend – but that’s okay because I feel very rested and raring to go. I had some mega creative inspiration while I was there… Hope you have a [...]

After days of feverish coaster printing (and a quick trip to the beach) I’m taking photos and updating my Etsy shop before the weekend starts. I’m happy to add Philadelphia to my list of Neighborhood Coasters! More updates to the shop coming later today, just wanted to share these colorful photos.
rose ink

Mixing ink is always a fun part of my day. I always have to do it right by the window so I get plenty of natural light. I never, ever mix ink after the sun goes down – twice in the past I had to scrap entire wedding invitation sets when I woke up the [...]
