A Trip to the LA Printers Fair
The annual LA Printers Fair happened last weekend in Carson, California at the International Printing Museum. I volunteered to work the admissions station and was given the 1-4p.m. time slot. Thinking the crowd would dwindle down by then because the fair was scheduled to end at 4p.m. – oh boy was I wrong! Visitors continued to make their way to the fair up until three-thirty! I was also surprised to see quiet a few people I know come by...well maybe not so surprising because those that I knew who came by were all designers. All in all it was a delightful experience and the people I talked to were a pleasure to work with. I took home a few gorgeous hand lettering cards as well. Until next time!

Design Tip: Cropping vs. the Whole
If you'd like to create a more dynamic design, one way to do it is to crop parts of your image or graphic as opposed to keeping the whole piece. Cropping has the advantage of creating more effective functionality, it can also be utilized to create a focal point or draw attention to the eye. Below is one example. There are lots of other ways to do it to add more meaning to your design, experiment and have fun!
