. daily daydreams . a blog by love ardently design studio

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.

I’m so in love with these hand-drawn illustrated typography by Katie Daisy Lombardo. She works mostly with watercolor and acrylic. I love her style and the colors are just delightful. Things like these really inspires me to learn more things to become a better designer. That’s why I’m taking Watercolor and Printmaking next semester :) So excited!

Back to Katie’s work, aren’t you just so blown away? I’d love to have any of her print on my studio wall one day :)
