This is major news. Twelve years ago this spring, after cooking a huge dish of Citrus Salmon, I planted seeds from 40 lemons. It was a ridiculous sight, there were literally cups of potting soil on every surface of my apartment.
After all this time only three seeds made it to full-grown trees, but this past weekend the very first blossom appeared. I’m out of my mind with excitement. Life’s little miracles…

Today I’m finishing up an order of business cards for local Bucks County Sullivan Building & Design. There are two different cards, both are non-uniform sizes – one is a folded larger card and the other a small square shape. I really like the variety and the classic blue ink color. You can see some of Sullivan’s amazing projects here.
And, as always, here are a few more of my shots. :)

Last week I shipped off an order of the Weathervane style wedding invitation, and now I’m working on a Marquee Poster style. The new Heritage Collection is off with a bang! :)

If I had my choice, almost everything I printed would be blind embossed. I love how minimal it is, and it really accentuates a nice impression. But if you’re looking for a little more pop, edge painting is a beautiful way to bring in some color while keeping it spare and elegant. Here is a blind emboss cloud design with sky blue edges. Love. And here are many more photos of the same… :)

I love this new 2012 spool calendar by Studio Carta. From the moment I received it in the mail I couldn’t wait to take pictures of it. Here are some more shots on my FB page, thanks Angela!

This past weekend I had the chance to visit the incredible Moravian Pottery and Tile Works here in Bucks County. Aside from the amazing architecture and history, it is still a working factory. Its well worth the visit if you’re in the area. My favorite items were these gorgeous tree identification tiles, here are some more photos to enjoy.

This was a busy week for wedding invitation jobs, both working on proofs and printing. I love this time of year – I have a really nice bunch of clients and wedding projects are always fun for me.
Here are some grass invitations being printed on the Heidelberg. I usually don’t take many press photos because the light is hard to get right, I’ll have to work on that.
