Mother's Day book

So, this would have been posted earlier if I had a blog yet. :] 

I finished it about a week ago, though. It's a book I designed for mom as a Mother's Day gift. Projects are even more fun when I can come up with my own idea for them and give them to someone I love. I made an accordian-fold book with pictures of our family in it from different memorable vacations, birthdays and even my graduation. It was especially fun to make this book because I used funny quotes that different people in my family always say (and my family is pretty weird/goofy/hilarious and ridiculous sometimes ;] ).


A few of the quotes in this book include:

    "You know, like nunchuck skills, bowhunting skills, computer hacking skills...(ping-pong
     skills, or enter any other skills that my brother feels he acquires :] )...Girls only want 
     boyfriends who have great skills."  
      
     << This quote must be said in a "Napoleon Dynamite" voice, of course, and is frequently quoted by my
      younger brother, Isaac.

     "I hate babies. They always give me dirty looks. I swear that baby was giving me the
     meanest dirty look just now."

       << Also Isaac, and yes, he really says and thinks this haha

      "Well, this is just 'toe' much fun!" (also "It's 'China' fun")

      << My dad just happens to be the master of all sort of puns. Some may think it's funny...or "punny" I guess 
       lol, orrrrr they just pretend to... ;-]

Basically, I love my family, even though we all can be a little odd sometimes (or most times).

Hi.

I started this blog so I can post about new design work that I'm doing and other projects I have taken on since graduation. :] It's also another fun way to keep in touch with people and keep them updated!
