Le Premier











Surely the web doesn't need another design blog, so what new and inspiring things can I possibly add? Maybe I can't answer that yet, but I'll surely figure out with time. We all must start somewhere.

Jeanie & Jewell is a blog dedicated to daily visual finds for grown-up as well as baby design connoiseurs, though I don't anticipate the babies themselves are going to be cruising the net. Obviously, having my 5-month-old daughter, Jewell, representing the contributions on behalf of our younger readers, is just for fun. Still, it will be in her voice that "Jewell's Pics & Picks" will be displayed. This half of the post will be design for babies and children, plus a new snapshot from the life of Jewell. The grown-up half will be, well, anything that falls under the banner of "visual inspiration."

Today's post, a bit of my own work.  I just finished the artwork for my latest notecard set, which will contain "happy," "hello," "thanks," and, shown here, "congrats."

Jeanie-
I don't know if you remember me from BYU graphic design classes but I saw this on ffffound.com. It took me to your blog and I was so happy to find out that you were the creator of this awesome typeface. Congrats on the "congrats". I love it.

Hello Jeanie!

This may seem like a ridiculous request to you and you can certainly decline but I was wondering if I can have the C tattooed on my body! It's the first letter of my name and I love mermaids! Plus, the letter is just wonderful as well as everything else. +1000
