i've been drawn to simple forms lately, so naturally i was instantly smitten with the sophistication and simplicity of this fruita blanch packaging by atipus. unlike a great deal of packaging we see today, it successfully showcases the product itself. novel thought!

whew. last week was a whirlwind. this week is shaping up to be the same, but i can't stay away that long! in reality, it was sort of nice to be away from the computer a bit. sometimes, we're so overexposed that we forget center, you know?

last week, i celebrated this beautiful man for his 30-something birthday. i literally can't describe what a blessing he has been to my life. he's my rock and my perfect complement, and i can't imagine my life without him. happy birthday, baybay!

we also got to celebrate another special friend of ours on her big 3-0. i put this bottle label together as a little gift.

hubs snapped these quickly before the party as i was getting fancied up - sorry they're less than profesh

over the weekend, hubs and i visited a few open houses. this has become a sunday norm over the last several months. yesterday was an exciting one because after looking at countless homes, i finally had "that" feeling. you know how you're supposed to walk into your home and just know it? well, this one is a bit of a compromise size-wise, but with great expansion potential, and it was just so beautifully kept up. hubs caught me with a goofy smile on more than one occasion. i can't stop thinking about it! so, naturally, i had to put together a mood board for one of the rooms...these pieces would be amazing with all of the beautiful wood and windows of the living room.

wishing you a fabulous week!

i know that some of you don't visit for this kind of stuff, but i am dying over this concept from andrew clifford capener! if you've been around for awhile, you know that i am a total type and lettering junkie. well, add to that one of the best games ever invented, and you get this A-1 scrabble designer edition.

sadly, it's just a concept, but holy *swoon*
