Pedalin' with a Purpose Postcard Idea

So after much brainstorming and sketching based on the Ork posters I posted a little while ago this is the post card concept I came up with for the PwaP boys. The idea is so that while they're on their trip they can circle, check, x or mark in whatever way they'd like the location they are currently at to send out. They can also hand these out as promotional material where people can mark and sketch on it in the same way.

We might do a couple of rounds of this but this is the initial concept with a hand sketched and lettered United States as the main portion of the post card.

Death & Taxes Poster, holy wow!

I just stumbled across this awesome poster project. Jess Bachman spends 2 months every year researching and creating this visual record of our tax dollars at work. It's an amazing endeavor and turns out beautifully. Check out this small section of it and view it's entirety here.

Design Inspiration

So I am loving these posters by Ork Posters:

And then of course there's the lovely promo poster for the Cooper River Bridge Run that happened last weekend: 

Find the whole poster at the poster store for the race.

Updated PwaP logo

So not wanting to change the original logo that these biking boys have been using too drastically we've come up with a happy, simple update that is vector based so that we can use it on a variety of promo materials. First steps: business cards and postcards and then on to bumper stickers and buttons. I'll keep you updated as to where you can find the goods to support this group!

Also on a side note - if you've been leaving comments and I haven't responded it's because I haven't been getting any.... thoughts anyone? Just email me at lwilliams.design@gmail.com. Thanks! 

Pedalin' for a Purpose

So I'm working on a bunch of promo material for a couple friends, 3 to be exact, who plan on biking cross country to raise support for the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) which helps wounded soldiers transition to civilian life. Please check out their website to learn more about the project.

Peadlin' for a Purpose has their website setup with info about the undertaking as well as a donation page that donates under their mission to the WWP. We're trying to raise awareness and have a goal of $250,000 in donations for the Wounded Warrior Project. Check them out at: www.pedalinwithapurpose.com. You can see the map of the route the want to take from Portland, Me to Portland, OR and then down to California so you can head out to support them if they're coming through your area.

I will be posting updates as I get the promo material together so you can find it and promote the project yourself with your friends. In the meantime go to the donation page and please donate whatever you can for this wonderful program. Thanks!

Catching up

So we've finally made it to Georgia and I've been spending the last week and a half unpacking. There's still so much to do though. It's surprising me how long this is all taking but moving from a small apartment to a house is actually crazy to do. We've realized how much storage/ shelving we don't have and would like and how much furniture we didn't have.... like a couch or coffee table or anything.

Anyway, no fun pics or anything yet as I just got up and running yesterday but the 2 invitations I was working on just arrived in the mail and turned out beautifully so I'll update sometime soon.

In the meantime wish me luck with unpacking!

Packing up Shop

Well the apartment is almost packed, Pearl is slightly worried about what's going on and we're getting Robert prepped to head out. This is it until we land in Georgia most likely. Wish us luck on the trip :)
