Not aware of any WI connection, but Pittsburgh’s Lisa Krowinski of the Sapling Press is one brilliant writer/designer. Here’s one of my favorites, but check out her etsy site to read all the cards.

I want to get my hands on this book: “Graphic USA: An Alternative Guide to 25 US Cities”. It features both Milwaukee and Minneapolis (both places I’ve lived and loved) and features art from locals Mike Krol and Adam Turman.

A logo I designed for a new condo building in downtown Milwaukee.

Just ordered these prints from Ryan Beshara of Modern Pop and can’t wait to get them! After the holidays, we decided to convert our office into a playroom and I think these will look great in there.

I just love sending and receiving actual printed holiday cards. These are my top two favorites that we’ve received via snail mail… apparently I like the multiple photo cards. (Tiny Prints & Shutterfly) I also like how everyone’s making holiday movies this year. Maybe I’ll start to upload our family videos and create something for next year. Happy Holidays!

I just sent my Holiday cards to the printer and can’t wait to get them back! For small invitation/greeting card jobs, I work with Dennis at Think Ink & Design in Madison. They do a great job (better than my home printer) and never make me feel like my small 100 run quantities are a pain.

Logo design I created for Faith Lutheran church in Coon Rapids, MN.

I’ve been keeping busy with freelance design work lately, so I thought I’d post a few of my recent projects. Here’s a logo and website design I did for Red House Stationery – a small company based in LaCrosse, WI that provides wedding invitations, place cards and programs for your special day.

LaCrosse will ring in their annual Oktoberfest (a.k.a. DrunkFest) this Friday with the “Tapping of the Golden Keg”. If I were hosting a party, I’d send out these invitations from girl*in*gear.

I love designing wedding invitations and I think the one I did for a wedding last weekend turned out great. Congrats Amy & Tony ~
