I'm starting a series dubbed "Breakfast Love." This is the first. With intentions that I will have enough to make a card set and prints. I have another with coffee underway that I'll post up in the near future. Other breakfast related items I'm considering are pancakes, muffins, huevos rancheros, even kolaches. As long as I can come up with some decent word play that is.

This is pretty much all I could think of when Virginia started going around shouting for mandatory transvaginal ultrasounds. And since I'm better with images than words most of the time, I made a handy illustration to prove my point. Seriously, this shit is scary. How many Darth Vader quotes can you imagine fitted to all this craziness with Republicans going ape-shit about sex and my

This is a cover of Daft Punk's "Around the World" on a piano set to a clip from a silent film. And it makes me super happy. Maxence Cyrin spent his childhood behind a piano studying classical music. Today he does piano cover versions of rock, pop and electro songs mixed with scenes from silent movies and other classics. But let me assure you, this isn't the kind of cheesy piano covers you hear

Wow. This guy just stole my heart. He proposed to his girlfriend by way of an infograph. Not that I don't totally love how sheepishly frightened my husband proposed to me and later added a helicopter ride, but this guy. This is right up my alley. Full infograph over at BuzzFeed.

One of the most anticipated shows that started this year for Hubs and I was Up All Night. And thank gawd it was swapped with Whitney (coughterribleshowsobadcough) and is now on NBC's Thursday lineup. I've never not liked anything with Will Arnett or Christina Applegate so it caught my eye immediately. I was hooked within 10 minutes of the pilot episode. Especially when they mentioned how much

Award season kicks off tonight and if you have absolutely nothing better to do and need a valid reason to drink, then you're in the right place. I've done the grunt work of searching the internet for all the other Golden Globe drinking games and compiled the better of them all into one convenient list. Click the image for the full list.

Halloween weekend was incredibly fun and incredibly terrifying. We got our first snow storm of the year. Woo! But nearly two feet within two hours was way too much. So much that we partied by candlelight. Food was pre-prepped, some pre-cooked, costumes were on, last pan went into the oven, and bam! Lights flickered. Within a minute they came back on. Thinking it was a fluke, I shut the oven door

It's been a long and insane few months (or seven) now. Since June I've been buried with wedding planning. It's finally all said and done but the insanity isn't going to slow down till after the holidays. Right? It never does anyway. So where have I been and what have I been doing? Let's review, shall we?

Oooh. Apparently I made it onto the homepage of Flyer Inspiration (bottom row, center). I whipped this up for some friends in San Antonio that had a gig. Typically isn't my bag of design but exciting nonetheless.

It's already September you guys! What have I been doing?!?! Oh right. Planning my own wedding. I can understand how the months just slip away now and back when Lauren was still planning her wedding, I was alongside her (virtually) designing a lot of her wedding details. From Save the Dates, to invitations, to beer labels, to cd labels, to seating cards, etc. If it was going to be printed on paper

Got some quiet time at the office to finish this up. Will probably have to scale back on texture once I pre-press for print but I'm pretty satisfied with the way it turned out. So why a two-headed eagle? Well, eagles are pretty badass. And everyone knows that two heads are better than one. New England is the birthplace of America. Eagles pretty much represent America. And if they weren't

I decided I'd start sharing random screen shots of what I'm working on from time to time. So today we have my Badass Brew marketing campaign. We at work have decided to start targeting specific types of clients that we'd like to work with. In this case, a craft or micro-brewery. So I'm creating a label for beer bottles that we will send out to various beer companies. Ya know, catch their eye. I

That's an actual line from the lyrical version of the "I Love Lucy" theme song. Yes, it's a real song with real lyrics. Not just the theme. And to this day I can still hear Desi singing it. Not only in my head but also in my heart. Because that's where Lucille Ball has always been. I can never put into words what Lucille Ball means to me. It's bordering creepy how obsessed I am about Lucy. And

Just wanted to show you my dino mug. I'm so excited to drink coffee out of it. Why? Because it's one of those "disappearing" type of mugs. I have no idea what the technical term is but basically it looks like a normal coffee mug but with dinos on it. Pour in some hot coffee and you're left with dino skeletons. From those guys over at The Unemployed Philosophers Guild.

This made me laugh. Especially the last line. It's a stop-motion video by Joe Hollier about Comic Sans fighting back. Dialogue originally from Mike Lacher. I'm Comic Sans, Asshole from joehollier on Vimeo. It's done wonderfully. Although, I feel there is an unnecessary amount of cursing. It surprises myself that I say that but it sounds like a fourteen-year-old cursing every other word just

And it's done. Save the dates have been designed, printed, mailed and now the wedding site is up in time. I've had a lot of late nights recently. But it's done.

Although, delirium could've played a part in our hysteria.  I'm trying my hardest to get back into blogging. Between prepping for

I'm mentally preparing myself for another wedding. I've barely recovered from my best friend's wedding last week. Thankfully I get to go back to Texas next week for Lauren and Trenton's. Mysteriously my best friends and myself are all getting married this year. I can't wait for Lauren's bachelorette party. I did the invite way back in February. Sneak peek only. We don't need party crashers.

I haven't really been paying attention to the Royal Wedding. Not that I was necessarily trying to avoid it either. I mean, it's a bit hard to ignore when it's every-fuh-reaking-where. What I have been paying attention to though are all the ridiculous "Wills & Kate" souvenirs, knickknacks, and devout followers. Finally, we have royal condoms. Yes, these are meant to protect your Crown Jewels
