A new black & white lettering design. Just ordered a stack of 4.75” x 2.75” stickers & thinking about printing a handful of onesies (because babies don’t care about your stinkin’ rules).

Geeez, time has flown.

spatulacheckonetwo:

I think it’s time to implement the celebration of half birthdays. Who could turn down another reason to have cake (or a half-cake in this case)? We happily celebrated the half birthday of our little one this weekend, cake and all.

Our boy sure is growing, but not as fast as our hearts are with love for him. Happy 6-months, Van.

Driving through Atlanta can be a real drag. So on a recent trip, I was pleasantly surprised by a good lookin’ billboard campaign for Southern Polytechnic State University — focused on campus life.

High five to Mock for the interesting typography, logo crop & fun copy.

The Good Ones is a make-believe rock ‘n’ roll band and a brand new boys clothing company of the same name. ‘Scrap Metal’ is the single. The video is fantastic, too.

Here is one reason why Creative Mornings might be my favorite thing on the web. This talk by Aaron Draplin of DDC is a damn riot. I would rise early every Sunday to hear this big man preach.

Bruce Springsteen / ‘Wrecking Ball’ / from Wrecking Ball

I love that this was written as a tribute to the old Giants Stadium, before its demolition in 2010. Before I knew that, it felt like Bruce was inviting any & all up-and-comers to take a swing at him & his band, knowing he can still hang with every single one of ‘em. Love that idea, too.
