My digital scrapbook, historical record and online playground.
The St. Paul Rodeo—a client of mine since 1996—is celebrating its 75th year! This year I got to design their anniversary logo!

One of the main tools in my toolbox turns 20 this month! I first started using Photoshop (version 3.2) in 1993. Photoshop changed everything! What would I be doing if this program had never been invented? Probably this. (Or something like it!)
Here are a few of my own Photoshop favorites:
The earliest one I could find, named “Tillin’ the Taj Mahal”

Several weeks ago I made this display for my boss to use in a presentation to some potential new clients. It has clear pockets so people can remove and handle the sample brochures.

It worked! One business, a remodeling company in Sherwood, really liked the die-cut samples. So I got busy, and in two weeks we designed, printed and delivered it—just in time for the Remodeler’s Home Tour. We also made matching business cards, refrigerator magnets, notepads, postcards and thank you cards!
Here’s the brochure—simple but effective:
