Kristin & Jay: Music for the Heart

My cubicle mate at my real job is a very talented guitarist; he’s also a great guy and an amazing graphic artist. His wife is a singer/songwriter who has a have-to-hear-it voice and, from the handful of times that I’ve seen her, is funny and fun to be around. They make a great team.

They also make great music as K&J. Here’s a video of their cover of the Lenny Kravitz tune, “It Ain’t Over ’til It’s Over”:

Some places to check them out on-line are:

Jay asked me to make a couple tees for their next gig and here they are:

Team Spirit Tees now makes signs!

My wife and Cool Beanz Coffee asked me if I could make a banner for their shop. Today was the Coming Out Car Show, the 2nd biggest car show in Maryland.

Well, I’ve never made a banner before. I went to my favorite forum and to the Sign Warehouse and asked plenty of questions.

I was a bit nervous but I followed the instructions and Voilà! now I have a new trick up my sleeve…

Cool Beanz Coffee banner

My first banner!

If you or your business, club, team, or whatever needs a banner, let me know.

I can also now make window clings, stickers, and signs.

Just ask and let’s get you noticed!

Chickens are people, too…

If you know me, you know I have a sense of humor that is a bit off-kilter. Frequently, my lovely wife and I are on different strata in terms of humor and she often says that she has 4 kids — 3 and me.

Maybe that explains why she isn’t the biggest fan of the shirt I just made. Sorry, honey… I plan on wearing this in public. 🙂

Congratulations to my college-bound daughter!

I cannot believe how time flies when you’re having fun. Or, in the case of parents, I cannot believe how time flies while you are cleaning, making dinner, washing dishes, laundry, trucking the kids to sports and school events, nagging your kids to do homework, and all the other items included in the past-time known as parenthood.

It seems like just yesterday when she was graduating from Children’s Corner with her friends.

On to kindergarten!

On to kindergarten!

Now, she has accepted to Susquehanna University in beautiful Selinsgrove, PA. To celebrate her achievement (and as a birthday gift), I made her a hoodie. It’s a heavy-weight fleece, weighing in at a hefty 12 ounces — because it gets cold in PA!

Congrats and lots of love!!

Malcolm Messengers get the SCOOP!

Malcolm reporters get the SCOOP!

The Malcolm Messenger

I was asked to do some tees for the newsletter at Malcolm Elementary. They wanted something a little different than the usual blue and yellow.

So, after a bit of back-and-forth, we decided on a black and white tee — sort of like newsprint.

Presenting the Malcolm Messenger tee.

Extra! Extra! Malcolm reporters get the SCOOP!

Malcolm Class of 2014

Malcolm Elementary asked me to make some tees for their graduating 5th graders. They wanted something groovy so we chose navy blue tie-dyed tees with a neon yellow design. Mustangs Rule!

I guess I am on a bit of a roll with the multi-color designs on my Expert 24 LX.

This is a tee I just did for Nicole Hawkins and her daughter. “Cookie” plays basketball for Team Sol.

North Point High School Criminal Justice

Check out the hoodies I just made for North Point High School’s Criminal Justice program.

This was made using my GCC Expert 24 LX cutter and Easy Weed vinyl. It was my first time doing more than one color with the cutter but it was easier than I thought it would be! And, it feels great — you can’t even feel the design on the hoodies because Easy Weed is nice and thin.
