  • I Am an Illustrator.

    I Am an Illustrator.

    We all say about a billion inane things that don’t really matter in the course of a day. There’s grocery list additions, refereeing your kids, quiet muttering to yourself when they don’t listen, idle threats. Endless requests for certain members in your house to put on pants. Stupid jokes. But every now and then, if…

  • Just a Little Reminder That I Heart You

    Even on the hardest of days, when we all feel like nothing is going right… Even on the most ridiculous days chock full of interruptions and madness, where it feels like we’re fighting an uphill battle and making zero headway whatsoever… I still love you, more than I can say, and this is all eighty…

  • It’s All About Perspective

    There’s a lot of great things I’ve seen on the internet this week, but a stay at home mom’s piece on Babble trumped all for me. She wrote a great post about why being a stay at home mom was a luxury for her husband, and it smacked me right in my big stupid face.…

  • Mother of the Year: Teething Baby Edition

    It was a ridiculous work day from the moment the kids and I got home from Fancy Coffee Friday yesterday. It seemed like I fought to work all day long. On top of the usual happy crashes and smashes from Phil as he played in the office, Joy just couldn’t seem to get it together.…

  • What is Fancy Coffee Friday, Anyways?

    If you’ve been keeping up with me online over the past few years, you’ve no doubt heard me mention Fancy Coffee Friday. I’ve talked about it repeatedly on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook, and it’s even been mentioned in a couple of my past blog posts – both here and here. But what is it? And…

  • My Fistpump of the Day – Potty Training Edition

    It’s felt like a bit of a rough road lately, with nothing letting up and zero chance of catching a break. Major computer issues all summer long. Summer transitions into fall. The desktop computer is taken care of, and a new glorious machine is in place. You’d think we could move on from talking about…

  • Scenes from the Home Office

    We had a fairly busy Tuesday in the ol’ home office! After a morning spent fine-tuning an exciting new logo design slash branding project for a client, I turned my attention to a rear endon on a website I’ve been working on that has been not quiiiiite behaving. An hour later, and I had that…

  • Show and Tell: Le Modern Trinket Site Design

    We had recently designed new hang tags and business cards for Christina Sanchez of Le Modern Trinket, and she was so pleased with our work she asked if we could overhaul her website as well! Using our favorite highly customizeable WordPress template, we revamped the site to be more search-engine friendly, adding plugins to allow…

  • Show and Tell: Team PYRfect Paws Logo

    I just finished up a pro bono logo design project for the Colorado Great Pyrenees Dog Rescue this morning! Team PYRfect Paws is the team name the dog rescue goes by when participating in charitable dog walks and events. Shannon Murphy is an active member of this non-profit organization, and specifically asked that the dog paw in…
