a fontified version of The Princess Bride

January 27, 2014 by Becca

I’ve been playing with lasers again! These designs were created as prizes for my office. We’re a bunch of nerdy geeks who create fonts for publishing minority languages. Last year we started taking bits from the ‘team movie’ of The Princess Bride and twisting them to our own silliness. There were actually a few more converted quotes, but these were the ones I chose to design. I etched them on wood as well as several different types of acrylic, but I feel that these turned out the best. Pardon the bits of dust clinging to them! I rubbed silver paint into the etching, exactly like I did for the Obscure Word book.

another weekend with Sharpies

Seven colors of Sharpie, including silver and copper. Did you know Sharpie makes non-oil/paint-based copper and gold colored markers now? They are just like the silver ones that have been around forever. Sweet!

a little Sharpie fun

October 25, 2012 by Becca

I made this for a friend’s birthday. Please pardon the poor lighting. I don’t have time to take a picture in the daylight. But good daylight is kind of hit or miss in England anyway… Seven colors of Sharpie marker, eight including the silver. On a brown paper envelope I cut apart! I like the contrast of the silver with the brown.
