So why not let everyone know, by putting one on your laptop, water bottle, or forehead?</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">There are certain places whose challahs are perfection, while others don't even seem to be trying. Once you've weeded those out, what you have is delicious challah for french toast, sandwiches, avocado toast, or–my favorite–grilled in olive oil on a pan, and then lightly salted. You can eat it straight, or add a little jam or avocado at this point, but whatever you do, make sure you can still taste the challah!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">Thank you to <a href="https://www.stickermule.com/custom-stickers" target="_blank">Sticker Mule</a> for producing another amazing sticker for me.

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This year, <b>Super Bowl</b> </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "roboto" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"><b>LIV</b> </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">falls on </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Groundhog Day</b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">! That's right, the biggest weather-related holiday of the year, has to share some of the spotlight with the biggest football game of the year. What are the chances??</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Fear not, for I am prepared. To get everyone excited for the big day- and also for the football game- I cooked up a drawing to commemorate the mashup.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Tomorrow morning I'll be posting my 2020 Groundhog Day tribute, and I'd love to hear what you think!</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
I created this comic while working on a graphic novel. It's a true story about how my daughter had to remind me multiple times about a wheel that had broken off the rolling case that holds her legos. By the end of the week, her patience had worn quite thin...</div>

Need to remind your kids to wash with soap? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Tired of begging your kids to run a comb or brush through their hair before going out into the world?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Do you wish your kids would remember to flush the toilet?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
How hard can it be to squeeze some toothpaste on a brush and clean the candy out of their teeth?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I can help.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I created these 5" x 7" prints for your kids' bathroom to keep you from pulling the hair out of your head. You can frame them*, tape them to the wall, or just lean them against the mirror and go back to sipping your coffee in the morning.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Camp Avoda has been a client of mine for 5 years, entrusting me with the design of their brochure, ads, signage, and whatever else that comes down the pike.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
They've begun putting together a prospective camper package and wanted to add stickers to the outside to get the recipient excited about the contents. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I created a number of concepts, and the following are the first two that we went for. <a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RB2GysqO_-k/XbGZPDhoJaI/AAAAAAAATFc/CiWVZr9tDF8cZxvbhVyFsRSIHl7ealBggCNcBGAsYHQ/s1600/Cool_Stuffweb.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="750" data-original-width="1500" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RB2GysqO_-k/XbGZPDhoJaI/AAAAAAAATFc/CiWVZr9tDF8cZxvbhVyFsRSIHl7ealBggCNcBGAsYHQ/s640/Cool_Stuffweb.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Phu0YiQfZfQ/XbGZPB7VJuI/AAAAAAAATFg/fHtkkvgVpRI7VeC1bKUJhWptjS6EtqNvgCNcBGAsYHQ/s1600/favecolorsweb.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="750" data-original-width="1500" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Phu0YiQfZfQ/XbGZPB7VJuI/AAAAAAAATFg/fHtkkvgVpRI7VeC1bKUJhWptjS6EtqNvgCNcBGAsYHQ/s640/favecolorsweb.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Once the designs were approved, we had them printed at <a href="https://www.stickermule.com/custom-stickers" target="_blank">Sticker Mule</a> at about 4" x 4" (10cm x 10 cm). The were printed on vinyl and die cut because I find squares and circles boring ; )<br />
<br />
Doesn't the die cutting make them look so much better?<br />
<br />
I absolutely loved what Sticker Mule sent back, and my clients were very happy!<br />
<br />
The designs were hand-lettered in Adobe Illustrator, and I even hand-drew the Camp Avoda logo so the whole piece would be matchy-matchy.<br />
<br />
OH! And I printed the second one as a <a href="https://www.stickermule.com/products/custom-magnets" target="_blank">magnet</a> which came out great!<br />
<br />
Here's another sticker I printed with Sticker Mule. It's for a preschool, and we also did postcards and t-shirts.<br />
