Tasty Custom Work

We recently had the pleasure of working with the DailyCandy crew in NYC to create a custom gift wrap package for them! Using the awesome DailyCandy illustrations, we added some JW flair with a fun girly pattern and matching color bursts in the background. We packaged up all the wrap with some gift cards and a sticker on the bag and shipped it on up to The Big Apple. It was a crazy deadline and lots of work, but the finished product is so wonderful! And what an honor that they chose us to create their custom wrap! Today, DailyCandy... tomorrow, the WORLD!
So... if you think you're as cool as DailyCandy, and want something created just as cool as this, go ahead and contact us. We'd LOVE to do some work for you! Click here to check out our custom info.

Vintage does equal broken.

Well.. despite numerous ideas from friends and family about how to resurrect the vintage stamper from the dead, I think it's officially bit the dust. A weekend of attempts proved highly unsuccessful. * sigh * I think perhaps we're going to think about a typewriter for the custom items until we can find a vintage stamper that actually works. Wish us luck, or send us tips as to where we can find one!
Cheers!

Vintage Purchase

So... I made my first e-bay purchase last week. A very cool vintage letter stamp set!

In theory, this was the perfect purchase... retro (like us), cool (like us), and a great asset to our hand stamped cards and custom services. However... sometimes vintage just means old and broke. As stated in the e-bay description, the rubber had hardened. Of course, I paid that no mind and pretended that it would still work like a dream. Unfortunately what that actually means is that the little rubber letters don't quite fit into the stamper, which means you can't actually stamp anything without it looking like jibberish! * sigh * If anyone out there has a brilliant idea on how to rehydrate rubber so it does what it's supposed to, feel free to let us know! I haven't completely given up hope. I have faith that we can figure out a way around this so we can use our cool retro stamper.
Until next time...
