busy bee...

2010-06-06T21:57:00.003-05:00

Ack! I've been MIA again! I was just getting on a bit of a roll with the blog refresh and then fell off the wagon... I landed a really great opportunity at my office so it might be a couple more weeks before I'm fully back in the swing, but I promise to be back soon. In the mean time, enjoy some photos from the weekend. As it turns out, my yard is covered with wild strawberries...

still in love: bird & banner

2010-05-25T16:33:00.003-05:00

I first blogged about [+] Bird & Banner almost exactly two years ago when I came across a gorgeous set of invitations. Well, here I am once again drooling over their amazing work. I sifted through almost every project and there really isn't a single thing that doesn't make me swoon.

I think being apart of a flash mob -- especially one involving music from GLEE -- is officially on my bucket list.

free state beer hits lawrence liquor stores

2010-05-21T11:52:00.002-05:00

Today is an exciting day in Lawrence, KS: Local favorite, [+] Free State Brewing Co., is officially bottling and distributing its beer to area liquor stores! This is pretty exciting for townies, but what I'm stoked about is that the branding and packaging for these babies was concepted, designed and produced by some very talented people in my agency, [+] Callahan Creek.

Polapost Mailable Frames

2010-05-21T10:03:00.003-05:00

You've heard of mail, right? It's that tangible stuff that magically arrives in a smallish box outside your front door. For a stationery and greeting card lover like myself, you'd think I'd be better about actually sending mail, but I'm not. However, I stumbled across [+] Polapost and my envelope-stamping dry spell may come to an end.

"[+] Polaposts turn regular photos into mailable Polaroid prints by fitting them fashionably snug inside an iconic white bordered sleeve. A built-in seal keeps your print from slipping out and a writable backside makes for easy message scribbling. Just snip your photos to fit, slip 'em inside then send them on their way. Instant happy!" - [+] Photojojo

goosbumps: 'dream on' glee style

2010-05-20T22:53:00.003-05:00

I was stoked to hear that Neil Patrick Harris was going to be on GLEE and about died when I heard he'd be covering 'Dream On' with Matthew Morrison... But when I finally got to see and hear the performance I literally wet my pants... Call me a GLEEK or whatever, but this gives me some serious goosebumps.

I absolutely adore this animal alphabet print by [+] Lad & Lass. I know it's meant for someone much younger who might need to learn about animals and letters, but it never hurts to have something around to remind me in case I forget, right?
