Evernotes Every Friday

1. Print Inspired Web

Not too long ago I started following Katrina of Pugly Pixel. I felt like we were pretty similar in our love for both web and print and her tutorials are so simple to follow. Just recently she posted about Frame magazine and its use of overlapping photos in its page spreads. So of course she created CSS and HTML to replicate the effect. Who does that?! She graciously created screencasts to TEACH others… for this tutorial and so many more check out her blogs Pugly Pixel and Style. 

2. The 2012 Feltron Annual Report

I can not even fathom what it takes to chronicle everything everyday to create a report like this… must make filing taxes that much easier (says the girl who was up last night helping her husband do his business taxes).

3.  Brøchner Hotels Branding

I really love the way this chain of hotels was broken down to just its windows to create the logo… really neat concept and perfect execution. Found via Brand New, designed by Mia Bjergegaard.

4. Floating Shelf

Gosh I love this blog, they make everything look so easy. I have been having the hardest time—in my mind—on what color or type of bare wood to have our photo ledge be. Seeing this post reminded me that there are actually a lot more options… not just black or white which is just too stark for me. Thanks Jess for pinning!

5. Los Angeles Food Map

When Andy and I went to Washington in October, I planned out each meal and some fabulous (and fatty) restaurant. But after all this lifetime of living in southern California, we have yet to take advantage of the good eats of Lost Angeles… hence my excitement at this adorable food map created by Design Love Fest. Thank you Bri!

I believe in magic. I believe in the power of true love. I believe in fairy tales and happy endings. And I live to create stationery and art for the young at heart to allow my fellow dreamers to treasure all of life’s most wondrous moments!
