A Cool Class That I Cannot Attend, part ii

robin sketch in colored pencil | simple pretty

This seems to be a recurring theme of late. Not only did I miss an awesome silhouette class in Calgary on Saturday, but I’m going to miss another fabulous class in October. And this one is local, so I can’t write it off as impractical. The Evanston Print and Paper Shop is holding a Computer Design Bootcamp on October 11 & 12. My friend E recently suggested that I consider designing a small stationery line (and I’m thinking about it, but really small), and this would have been a great way to hone some skills in Illustrator and turn them into letterpress ready plates. Perfect, huh? Well, I’ll be at a wedding for day #1. I really hope EP&P offers this again.

If you’re in the Chicago area, check out their other workshop offerings, too.

why the robin photo? well, I would definitely have a bird card, and robins are my fav ….

And Happy Birthday, E!

    Your little robin is so sweet. I would look divine on stationery – perfect, in fact.
