Font Friday 020712
Font Friday is here and I'm excited that I have a post ready to share. As a graphic designer, fonts are so important to me. It's a tool that helps convey the emotion of the message. Fonts have personality and I love the marriage between fonts, message and image. I've pulled together some of my favorite fonts. As you can see I'm a curly-girly! I don't own all the fonts shown here, but … [Read more...]

Mixed Media (Yes I can!)
After church today I was inspired by the message of volunteering. I go to a mega-church, a movin' shakin' church in our community.

They send out a mass call to action to design and after you submit your work, they decide what works best for their message. I … [Read more...]
Spring Inspired Art Prints

Reminds me of the Flintstones cartoon when they would get in there car, their feet would scramble and it would take them a bit before they would be off.... zoom, zoom! Last fall I decided I would take Jeanne Oliver's e-course called Creatively Made. I really thought I would be able to explore a new medium and … [Read more...]
Creatively Made – Project Journal
I am taking an online e-course from Jeanne Oliver called Creatively Made. It includes video lessons from Jeanne where she shares stories of her life, her creatively, and inspiration on helping us find our gifts. She has done a beautiful job. Her heart soars throughout each word she speaks. She is a very gracious woman and it shows in her videos. Her artwork speaks for itself. She definitely shows … [Read more...]

My font inspiration today is from Paper Crave. I love the Paper Crave blog for inspiration in all things I love, paper, typography, and crafts. If you aren't subscribing to it, I guarantee you will want to add that to your … [Read more...]
