“What I most love about scrapbooking…is that every time I fill a page with photographs, quotes, and mementos, I am collecting proof of a good life.”
— Amy Tangerine, Craft a Life You Love

New Days of the Week Stamp
Pretty sure this is the tiniest that my brush lettering can get. As far as rotary stamps go, I figured this would pair nicely with a regular date stamp for all you planner lovers out there…
Trying Tombows
Safe to say I have a new marker obsession! I need a lot of practice with these Tombows, but trying them out has been really fun. This is from a manifesto I originally wrote out in 2014 and is one of the first #ATmotivationalmonday posts…

Sharing Everything I Know About Brush Lettering!
You all have been asking me for a long time to create an online workshop and I've finally done it! Well, it's been nearly a year in the making, and I am so excited to finally introduce - A Modern Take on Brush Lettering.

Since I can't travel everywhere to teach it in person, we thought this would be the next best thing…

Laughing for a Good Cause
In between editing videos, designing products and working on client pages, we decided to take a little laugh break and tested out the SunChips® Laughalizer -- it's a fun laugh-analyzing digital tool that highlights each user's unique "laugh-print" that can be shared across social media. After the Laughalizer carefully analyzed our laughs, it was determined that we…
