It’s lookin’ like Spring outside, which has put me in a Springtime mood. I thought I’d share a bit about one of my favorite Spring designs. This card started out as a simple sketch. Well, I guess it’s not that simple. I think I sketched this sometime in 2009, but I really didn’t work [...]

This is one of my most favorite quote pictures that I have designed. It’s not just that I love the movie – which really is awesome, but the whole layout is pleasing. The picture is fantastic. The most memorable quote is large and centered as well. Then the rest of the quotes provide a lovely [...]
I designed these for a friend’s son’s wedding. She used them as part of the centerpieces on the reception tables. She wanted it to be a sort of game, you know, “guess what romantic movie this quote is from.” It actually turned out quite cute! I think there are 78 total. The hardest part was [...]
