We’ve been a bit quiet lately
So, the inevitable happened: real life caught up with us. The stress of finishing two theses has taken its toll on our blog. We’ve been just about able to handle the letterpress orders that have been trickling in from Etsy. To prove that have been doing some work, it’s time to show off. First, a … Continue reading

I do a lot of writing, but somehow I always seem to have … Continue reading
Chevrons, fungus, and cheezburgers

Not only did we get our blog online and upload a whole lot of new things to our Etsy shop, we’ve also launched a Facebook giveaway (featuring our internet acronym cards), and gotten busy making a bunch of new stuff. What, you ask? You’ll have to wait … Continue reading
Tom and Megen FTW
We just made our first sale on Esty! It’s probably too early to start getting excited, but what the hell – it’s not every day you actually get to make some money doing something fun. Our very first sale ever was this black Thank You card: We’ve re-listed them, so more people can (hopefully) buy … Continue reading
Our first card on Etsy!
Today we opened up a shop over on Etsy. We weren’t sure what to put up there at first, so we just decided to print something that we wanted to use ourselves and put that up. The result was this red and black Thank You card:
