Where everything is handmade…
I didn’t realize until last month that most of my friends was born April. And one of them is Chiche, a friend who’s like an adopted sister to us and whom we met accidentally but truly meant to be. Anyway, she had a french themed dinner party in our favorite french restaurant, Bon Apetit. Of course, …
Lately, I have been in touched with graphic design rather than crafting. Which brought me to my very first art exhibition called Art Attack2. Organised by the talented Davao Graphic Designers Community. Since it’s my first time to join one, the dilemma was… I have never tried making an art for my own sake before plus l have …
You’ll know it’s already christmas when you see decors all around you. Lights, trees, ornament balls, wreaths and all those that makes you feel like a child once again. One thing I’m good at is using paper in all sorts. Last year, I tried making a paper christmas tree for Yellow Hauz and in the studio. …
Sometimes I really wish I live in Manila, because all the creative things I know are all there. The creative workshops from rubber stamping, calligraphy to developing a successful blog. Although I can’t be there physically, but my products are very much lucky to be part of a great collaboration. Artisan Paperie is very proud …
I have this thing in customizing almost all of my office paper goods, specially receipts. Yup, OC is my middle name, lol. I used to be an Accounting graduate but I definitely hate numbers and computing. So I thought, a good looking receipts to compute at might change a whole lot of thing. Which is actually …
I’ve been holding my breath to share this with you and boy I’m so glad I can finally say it… For the first time, I am part of a design team. Yes, you heard that right and I can’t hardly imagine I made it. You see, I can say, graphic design is my strength, but …
One of the challenging thing for me is to play and maximize the use of paper materials… I’ve been thinking on how paper can be more practical, useful and sturdy all at the same time. Then while I was drinking my coffee and used my corkboard coaster, I’ve thought why not try a printed coasters instead. …
I’m in the mood today to update Artisan Paperie. Inspired to sell more of my goods in the web world. I added some custom printable notepads with your own photograph and one with template design. I do print them as well but if you want to DIY your own notepad then feel free to print as many …
When a new year comes, calendars are always the popular gifts, and on the other note, it never gets old. It’s simply practical, functional for the whole year round, all the more, if you have it custom-made. That’s why, before the christmas break, a client ordered these for a family giveaway. Contact me at [email protected] if …
10-years had past and it’s our high-school reunion once again. I can’t believe how time flies and it’s already been past 10-years since my high-school days. I was happy when one of my batchmates assigned the design for me. It would be my honor to be part of the high-school reunion. I was not really …
I’m happy to know that most of the couples here in the Philippines, already sends out save the date first before the formal invitation. Postcard is one idea for a save the date. You can use your pre-nuptial photos so can share it to your guests. I have made few designs of postcards with different sizes. …
Here’s what keeping us busy lately… a cupcake invitation for Niau.. The size is around 5.5×3.5-in., and we made the photo pop-up to make it fun. I intend to add more pop-ups and embellishment, but we had a little time constraint. But I think, it looked okay, don’t you think so? I also added this …
One thing if you’re a graphic designer… you’re aware with all the designs that surrounds your company {or maybe that’s just me, haha}. Anyway, our coffeeshop {Yellow Hauz} needs another set of Official Receipt and I’m here to revamp our old and not so well thought design receipt. I wasn’t a graphic designer back then …
Normally, it would take me a lot of procrastinating to finally make a new design for my businesses. In this case, our yearly participation in a bridal fair, encourages me to create something different from our previous designs. Thus, includes my business cards and leaftlets. The thing is… I don’t know if you also feel …
I had a privilege to design a logo for a friend, Ikei… and since this friend of mine is a business woman, I designed not only one but two logos for her. So my frustration for Illustration will be challenged again… but on the hand, these logos turned out to be one of my faves …
