Product Release: 2013 Matchbook Calendar

My new succulent matchbook calendar fits in your pocket. It features a detailed succulent paper cut on earthy paper. These are great stocking stuffers for loved ones that love plants, but always kill them. 

So, how does a matchbook calendar work? When you get to the end of a month tear or cut out the last month to reveal the current month in the front. Keep it in a pocket or on your desk.

Product Release: 2012 Screen Printed Desk Calendar

Introducing my 2012 paper cut botanical paper cut! This calendar is an homage to all the beautiful flora I saw while backpacking through Southeast Asia this past year. When I got home, I translated my best photographs into graphic paper cuts for each month. The back of each calendar is a postcard, so they each serve a dual purpose.

The chipboard packaging doubles a stand for the calendar (see below). You just have to put the tabs through the outer slits to create a shelf for the print. This feature of the calendar is very important to me because I have been using plastic cases in the past that were cheaply made. This solution is completely compostable/recyclable.



The back of each print doubles as a postcard. So once the month is over you can send a quick note to a friend.

The process of screen printing lets the ink sit above of the paper, giving the finished product a richer tactile feel.

Sneak Peak: Screen Printing 2012 Calendars

I've been on press all day printing. Here is a tiny sneak peak of my 2012 desk calendars. The white is printing beautifully on the earthy tones. So exciting to see it come together. I've got one more day of printing and then you should see them in my shop shortly.

2012 Calendar Sneak Peak

The past couple weeks I've been working really hard to get the 2012 desk calendars completed. Here are some of the botanical paper cuts I made for the calendar. I've been translating some of the photographs I took during my round-the-world trip into graphic paper cuts. It's been a lot of fun, except my hand is complaining from all the tedious exacto work. Can't wait to see the finished product. I'm so close! Stay tuned for the screen printing process.
