And this free printable for download makes me swoon… Super, super sweet.

Can’t believe that this is my first time discovering this magnificent typography blog. Friends of Type is a collection of type-related sketches and works in progress of three designers: Erik, Aaron, and Jason. From one blog post to another, they continue to amaze me!

This week is the second week of school and life has been pretty crazy. I only finished ONE, i repeat, one Love Ardently project this week. Time has been consumed by school stuffs, and I really didn’t anticipate this to happen. :( This explains why I haven’t been on LOD as well, sorry! Anyway, Friday’s here and this is my catching up day. Lots and lots of things need to be done, but I’m gonna take a breath for a bit and present you my FFF :)
+ Helvetica Cookies over at Hello Typo. Am I dreaming?
+ Heart Home Rug at Design Milk. Lovely and just in time for Valentine’s day :)
+ Letterpress Drop Cap by Jessica Hische. The price is far out of my reach, but i love everything about this print!
+ Think of Me handkerchief by Bird and Banner.
+ Wedding Scrapbook on OSBP by The Haystack Needle. So lovely! Err… which is a reminder for me to do (begin) mine.

The last week of January! How fast time flies. Valentine’s day is just around the corner, and most people know that I’m a big fan of romantic novels especially those written by Jane Austen. If you haven’t figured out yet, the name “Love Ardently” actually was inspired by a quote in Pride and Prejudice said by Mr. Darcy to Elizabeth, “You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you“.
So, when I found Brookish on Etsy, I was almost jumping off my chair, literally. I think these are the most perfect Valentine’s gift for a romantic who loves Jane Austen’s quotes (such as moi :)). How can one not love these?
And these are my favorites. :)
