:: coming soon to minted ::

i'm quite cheerfully here today to share some good news. not only was my "vintage treatment" design (shown here) chosen from among 600+ designs to be sold on minted, but it was one of the special editor's picks winners. you are, my friends, looking at the "best personalized calling card design."

i'm most pleased, i think, because i look at this and i look at designs i submitted to minted just a year ago and i see how much i've developed my own design voice in that time. i look at how much i've learned about pattern and texture and about using the tiniest of details to add almost unnoticeable elements that take a design from ho-hum to something more.

it's fun to be able to look back and see the development. and it's fun to win! yay!
