Hope you all are having a wonderful weekend! I had the day off yesterday and was working for some clients and realized how important my client are to me! So here is my ode to clients…but not in song form. More like link form.

Central Coasters

I recently helped Cheryl launch her new Etsy shop: Central Coasters. She specializes in unique and fun coaster sets. Perfect stocking stuffer or house warming present!

Mari Okumura Beauty and Beast Makeup

Incredibly talented Mari contacted me to design her logo, business cards, web presence and more.

Totspups Fine Art Photography

It’s hard to find really good photography. That’s why when Totspups Fine Art Photography initially contacted me, I was honored to contribute to the already existing artistic talent that is present in all of her work.

Emily Elizabeth Jewelry

This one-woman-show is amazing. Emily creates each piece and I’ve already acquired two necklaces. If you’re looking for something beautiful/fun/elegant/kitsch, check out her store. I work with her on a regular basis to display her work appropriately so that she shines through.

Jewel Hazelton

Jewel is a new client that I connected with through Twitter! She’s a freelance publicist and I’m currently working with her to get her full portfolio site launched!

Bella-Bijou Jewellery: jewellery

Ocean Street Spa

More links to start your week. I enjoyed my weekend but Adam was gone so it wasn’t as good as it could have been.

For Print Only just featured a really different, but awesome invitation design. I definitely don’t gravitate toward that shade of pink, but I really like this.

Also, can I get my Gocco back? After reading this, I never realized what I could have created with that little gem of a machine.

This video makes me laugh. so. much.

Has anyone used this resource?

Is this just a lame knock off of the Polaroid? I just love the white, clean design.

I’m going to start using the “Far Far Away” option.

Currently working on a blog design for TOTSUPS.com and her new book series called Charismatic Dogs. To be finalized soon (or possibly now!)

It would mean so much to me if you would take a few moments out of your day and vote for a book that I designed. It’s been entered into a contest and voting ends November 9th. I’m pretty sure it’s currently 3rd in the leader board. Thank you so much (in advanced) to anyone who votes!

Happy start-of-the-week.

I thought I would share some of my favs lately. Hope your Monday’s rocking.

Is it the color, the letterpress, or the wonderful overall gorgeous design? You decide.

Everything about this blog is great. I’d say, it’s something to write home about.

If I could hand pick my handwriting, I’d choose this style.

I want to frame this piece.

It’s not often that you find a bookcase that’s unlike anything you’ve ever seen.

I don’t often get excited for “unveilings” but I’ve been pretty stoked about this for awhile now.

Make your Monday grand and pass it along.

A big project just wrapped up and it’s available here. Working alongside TOTSPUPS Photography was awesome, like always. I wish she could photograph my puppy! This page will be a 40-page softbound book. Full color and full bleed.

I think deep down, I would love to be a professional photographer. I took these for a friend in Columbus (German Village). It was a beautiful day and my subject was especially gorgeous!

I recently designed a blog for a client for her business TOTSPUPS (a personal fine art photographer). It took approximately two weeks to complete and we were both very happy with the result. Her photography is beautiful and it was a pleasure to collaborate with another talented artist. Feel free to contact me if you’re interested in a custom blog design!
