up in lights

have i hit the big time? my designs up in lights? well, in hobbs america, it would seem so! after i did this logo and branding of stationary, business cards, and stickers, they moved locations, and put up a big fancy bright lights sign.

isn't it purdy?? love.it! but, not as much as i love what they put inside.

doesn't it look like stained glass? i thought it was, but she says it's just a hard plastic. whatever it is, it's FAN.TAS.TIC!

if you're in or around hobbs (nm) america, stop in to bloom & say hi

do my 15 minutes of fame start now??

that time of year

are you in denial that the holidays are about 2 months away? i know it's not even halloween, but once that rolls around, the holidays just keep comin' at us. so, i decided to put this together to get the idea juices flowing.

best part about custom? it can be whatever you want it to be. it can be small, large, do double duty to announce other exciting news, and the list goes on. here, see for yourself:

if you're lookin' for a flat card, all my designs are double-sided, which make them perfect for a short christmas letter.

or, maybe you want a folded card

but, maybe you have lots of pictures and want a TRI-fold

how about no pictures, and a save on postage with a postcard

you could announce your new baby's birth

or a sweet boy's birthday

and, when you're done with the family card, how 'bout one for the biz?

that enough to get those juices flowing? of course, the sky's the limit. whatever you can dream up, we can do it.

check out the site for more ideas later this week and have a super great weekend! i'm heading off for a 2-day trip with mr. man, and i know baby brother's going to arrive in that time, because that's just how murphy's law works in this family!

Logomania

I was having one of those weeks again where I was feeling unproductive, so I scanned my orders and realized it was because all the work I've done recently didn't involve me printing anything. All my work lately has been either web or logo design. You want to see, right?

I've already designed the Dynamic Edge logo, business card, postcards and web items, but this time, my client wanted t-shirts. Cute, huh?

I also updated a logo for a local construction company.

Then, I finished up my brother-in-law's Christmas gift. Yep, sister's hubby. They have a little (big) farm, and grow their own veggies, so they needed a logo.

And, finally, I whipped up a new blog header for a client, who happens to be one of my most loyal customers!

Phew, I don't feel so unproductive now. I can now look back on January and February and realize that yes, I did actually do quite a bit of work!
