A little christmas cheer from the Burk clan to all of yours! Our christmas cards are all sent out, but as always- there are a few stragglers in the mail. Here is a digital version of it (it was folding, so kind of hard to re-create..) I hope your holidays are full of family, friends, happiness and love!
Did you know I teach typography?
Exciting News! I am teaching a class on typography for Nicole’s Classes. It starts in January, and will be offered online. What do I teach in this class? Ohhh let me tell you!
Type is everywhere around us. How do you know good use of type vs. bad? What makes a font good or bad? What are the basic rules and guidelines of how to use type? How can you improve your own designs with typography?
What is the difference between serif, sans serif, and script? How do I use that knowledge to improve my designs? How do I pick good fonts?
So…. if you have any of these questions, or just want to learn some rules and guidelines on how to improve your designs, you can sign up for this class here.
*Typography Basics is a mini class offered through Nicole’s Classes for $60.

It hasn’t snowed too much here, but I can’t say that I mind… the San Diego native that I am. Christmas to me will always be surfing at the beach! However, all of this wrapping paper excitement has gotten me motivated to get my act together and get all of my holiday shopping and neighbor gifts done. I spent a bit of time baking this weekend… whether or not these treats actually made it to planned neighbors is my little secret… but here are some tags I thought you might enjoy for neighbor gifts, or for anything else you are handing out!
Happy Christmas and enjoy the download!
