I want a very uniqe bussniess card made
im thinking all black
with a unicorn on her hind legs
and purple writeing
showing my business name
and my easy link
with words
saying
“hand made crafts”

I want to see samples of what u made so i cAn decide if your good enough. If u like u can put ur name on the business card to. But in small print. I do not want to pay a lot of money for this. So please start small.

Ideal price: $0.01

"If you want to really hurt you parents, and you don’t have the nerve to be gay, the least you can do is go into the arts. I’m not kidding. The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something."

Kurt Vonnegut (A Man Without a Country)

So You Need a Typeface: Flowchart infographic by Julian Hansen

Gets a little loopy to follow sometimes, but an interesting arrangement of the (give or take) top 50 fonts in Font Shop’s top 100.

Thanks for the link, Scott!

Bird and wildlife collages made out of old maps. Jason LaFerrera is a genius.
