Hello friends! Almost Merry Christmas to you! I wanted to spend a little time today talking about Holiday Traditions and find out what you do to celebrate. Here are a few things we do, but I'm always looking to add some new ones. The first holiday tradition started when andy and i were first married.

We decided from then on to add an ornament each year that "summed-up the year." So if...

Hello Friends, recently I created a custom print for a client/friend who was finishing Drill School (fireperson + first responder school).

I have some lowercase which looks playful, fun and peppy (can't show you this one since it is a gift!) and then uppercase really old woodtype (1856) that is serifed and lovely…don't you think the polka dots really makes it?

We'll we've got the perfect storm brewing up this weekend. Headed to Minneapolis to pick up a Heidelberg Windmill press! Yay from a production stand point but ugh from a hauling stand point. Lot of poundage to haul. I'll be documenting the pick up and roadtrip. The forcast is calling for some  freezing rain and snow all along our route so this should be interesting…full details to come! What I am most looking forward to is my Nephew's first Birthday party on Saturday! How can be a year already little William!
