Happy Weekend.

+ Making your own cocktail mixers and packaging them in cool bottles makes for a great hostess gift.

+ This ice skating party looks like so much fun.

+ I love the idea of wood wallpaper.

+ The wrapped packages decorating this branch advent calendar are just begging to be opened.

+ Crazy delicious popcorn ball flavors.

+ These make me want to attempt making a modern gingerbread house!

+ Great illustrated cards from Tad Carpenter.

11 Resolutions for 2011.

Andy Babb’s 11 Resolutions for 2011 postcard set plays off of the New Year’s resolutions people typically make. Working out more, drinking less, losing weight, you get the idea. Andy illustrated each one, then took it to the next level. On the reverse sides there are two options for carrying out your goal: Hi-Res (high hopes) and Lo-Res (cynical).

If you’d like to order a set of your own, Andy has been kind enough to offer a discount of 11% to all Design Crush readers. Simply use the code CRUSH. Thanks Andy!

Debbie Carlos.

I was first introduced to the work of Debbie Carlos about a month ago by Joslyn. What struck me (besides the lovely imagery) was that I recognized her printing technique but couldn’t put my finger on it. After checking out Debbie’s site I found out she was printing on a plotter, which is normally used for architectural drawings and the like. It’s a format I’ve used for some of my own work in the past and mentally sent out a high five in her direction.
