around the studio // 03.09.11

Today in the studio… mixing up a pretty, custom, metallic ink + inking up the press. We used this color on that beautiful Italian paper along with another ink color we printed up yesterday.

A couple of shots I captured today of things going on in the studio. One, this big plate ready to be broken up and printed. I should have photographed it with something familiar so you could get a better idea of its scale. It’s quite massive. And, two, this beautiful pink Italian paper with a lovely deckled edge. Today, we printed little invites on it. I can’t wait to show you the finished piece.

Hope your Fat Tuesday was a happy one!

happy mardi gras!

So sorry I went missing last week. We took a trip to visit family and had pretty spotty internet. Originally, we were only going to go out of town for the weekend, but the opportunity to go for the full week presented itself, so off we went!

Saturday night, we celebrated Fat Tuesday a little early at a Mardi Gras ball. Man oh man, there was so much confetti + sparkle + beads everywhere! We had such a [much needed] fabulous time.

Oh, and above? A blurry + fun picture I took of the king of the ball we attended as he waved during his parade.

Happy Mardi Gras everyone!

ah-choo!

This cracks me up. Every month, I take Em’s picture, and this is one of the outtakes. So funny! I mean, what are the odds that I’d get a pic of her sneezing?!

Hope you had a great Monday!

Great Japanese findings from Uguisu. Photo albums shaped like cameras + airmail. Confetti dots stickers made from vintage paper + stamp patterns. All sorts of neat things. // via Abby’s blog Baby T.
