yeah yeah yeah

Nope, this post has nothing to do with bands, just the pure happiness I am feeling because I have been awarded 4 addys this year from Greater Dayton Advertising Association (GDAA). I got a bronze addy for my personal identity: business cards (printed by smokeproof press) and notecards (printed by Oregon Printing). I have received one silver award for my most recent wedding invitation packet and another for a logo design. And the gold—aka severed Hermes head—goes to a self promo piece I created for the same client as the logo design. (Photographs by Blink of an Eye Photography)

The most amazing part about receiving these awards is that they were all conceptualized and designed by my little lonesome. Sure—getting recognition for your student work is a great honor—but when it's only your own blood and sweat... that's a completely different story... and that is why I have such a hard time wrapping my head around this. I just feel so blessed to do what I love to do every day.

in the spirit of spices

As you may know my company name resembles a very important spice in the Hungarian cuisine. In the spirit of getting ready for the official paperreka website launch—which has a lot to do with spices as well as magic—I offer you this amazing design to make your day a little brighter. Most importantly, however, I offer an online commitment to you dear readers that the paperreka website is to launch the first week of March. There I said it—and cannot take it back.
