everyday day

/

We gave our good friend Christopher Rouleau a set of our everyday notebooks to play with on the condition that he share his work with us. Christopher has embarked on an exciting year-long creative challenge—visit his blog to see how his "12 months of type" project unfolds. Each month, he'll be experimenting with a different medium of technique... he even lists 'FOOD!' as one of his mediums to try in 2014. 

Christopher passed along some everyday notebooks to Tanya Roberts of Snap + Tumble Letterpress Goods. She also shared her images of everyday notebooks in use. Don't forget to pick up your set of everyday notebooks and share your everyday creativity with us. 

UPPERCASE everyday notebooks are here!

Everything looks so good together!

The pattern I designed for issue #19 is one of my favourites. It is inspired by Icelandic knitwear and mineral crystal shapes.

A set of two, warm colours.

Each set comes with a black hex pencil.

The notebooks are completed and look and feel wonderful! I was so excited I took these Instagram videos and shots as I opened up the packages. All the details came together so nicely, even the crystal clear bag that keeps everything secure is the perfect fit.

UPPERCASE everyday notebooks are available in our shop now! Just in time for holiday list-making and gift-giving.

If you follow me on Instagram, you will have seen a few teasers about something I've been working on. .. I am pleased to introduce UPPERCASE everyday notebooks!

Designed for all of your daily musings with patterned covers and colours inspired by your favourite magazine. The warm set includes an orangey-red flower and yellow chevron pattern. The cool set includes a blue dot and teal herringbone.

The notebook is trimmed to our signature size (6.625" x 8"). The smooth uncoated blank pages have ample room for doodles, sketches, collages and other daily creative musings. This two notebook set comes with an UPPERCASE "be sharp" hexagon pencil.

Here I am assembling a mockup of the notebook set.

Testing the bellyband that will hold the set together.

Looking rather festive on my new cutting mat. After literally a decade of using a too-small mat, I finally bought a nice big one. Such a luxury! 

Some of my favourite spine patterns from past issues repurposed as surface patterns. 

PRE-ORDER SPECIAL: The notebooks are at the printer, the pencils are made and the packaging is set to go. Finished sets will be shipping in a few weeks. (Just in time for the holiday season!) Reserve your sets today by placing an order.
