thank.you
Posted: May 28, 2012 Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: calligraphy, handlettering Leave a comment »A stunning bride asked me to create simple and elegant thank you cards with the beautiful line “my heart is full of love.” How pretty is that! Black ink on white card. With a line like that, less is more.

doodles with love.

I assure you, I am keeping up with the social media realm, unfortunately blogging has hit the backburner while instagram is being stocked with my daily doodles.
I’ve been recently inspired by the amazing and talented calligraphers around the world via instagram. #handlettering #calligraphy I can spend hours on these two simple hash tags. Below are some of my daily doodles (made with love).
Love struck by memories lately.
Spending the long weekend in the mountains just makes me want to stop time.
Found some airplane doodles in my sketchbook from my recent trip back to New Zealand. Food clearly was on the mind.

Time is moving so fast!
It’s been a rather stressful few days.
I’m looking forward to next week, however, 25 hours on an airplane to visit our other home, with my dream boy. Best.
Wedding Obsession

And if you don’t already know what Wedding Obsession is, please take a gander. One afternoon at work, I swear I got lost and spent 3+ hours just browsing the pages of wedding’y goodness. The great thing? They are all Canadian and list all the details from graphics and cakes to venue!! Swoon!

Getting Ready for Love

Instagram is my new fb, it’s my twitter in images. I’ve actually considered not hiring a photographer for our wedding and just getting our iPhone friends capture our day of love with this fabulous app.
Valentine’s Day is coming up. Whether you like it or not, I hope you feel loved.

I couldn’t be happier with my engagement photos we took the other month.
Ashley Champagne, you are a magician.
Movie Poster: Drive
Posted: October 25, 2011 Filed under: Uncategorized Leave a comment »I don’t know how many of you have gone to go see Ryan Gosling in Drive, but those of you who have, am I wrong in saying it was amazing?! It’s been a long time since I have gone to a movie and felt so many different emotions from a movie that didn’t even have much dialogue. Not to mention the killer soundtrack to go along with it. One of my favourite things is when movie posters get redone in a non-traditional ‘movie poster’ way. Ya know, minus the faded profile shot and Trajan Pro across the top of the poster? I just found these two beautiful versions for Drive on Anna Hurley’s blog.
boy meets girl
Posted: October 24, 2011 Filed under: Uncategorized Leave a comment »Happy Monday! I wanted to start the week off with a wonderful find I came across on the envelopments blog. I love the idea of making the invitation a story, rather than introducing a graphic just for the sake of having a graphic. Why not make the words just as graphically appealing? Well, they did just that over at envelopments with the use of great colour. Just take a look for yourself!
