The best thing about this Valentine's day promotion is I don't think you actually have to be in sticky sweet love to participate. The other is that you can win up to $1000 toward any of the  businesses in One Colorado. That's the brick shopping center in the heart of Old Town Pasadena (Johnny Rockets, Il Fornaio, Crate & Barrel, J Crew, Patagonia, etc.) Follow them on twitter and like them on facebook to participate starting Feb. 1, so you can win daily prizes and qualify for the whopping $1000 shopping spree at any of the businesses in the complex. Look for the posters that look like this around the complex for more information. Or check here.

Until recently, I didn't know about the modern wedding trend of hand-drawn or watercolored maps to accompany wedding invitations or save-the-dates. It seems like an old-fashioned approach in a world where everybody has photoshop and access to "decorative" typefaces courtesy of sites like Dafont.com. I think it's interesting that today's bright-eyed brides and grooms gravitate towards something so analog and personal for their big day. A friend of a friend hit me up to do one for her wedding, and I had a blast. Maps are interesting already, but one that combines the places you and your significant other have made memories over the years is even more so. So, while I've never been there yet, here's Boston illustrated by me and envisioned by a young couple who'll get married at the Four Seasons there in October.

When Brynn and I got the holiday card assignment, we knew we wanted to make use of our hand-craftiness. Eventually we got to the idea of animated .GIFs and from there we embraced the pun The GIF that keeps on giving. While the best holiday cards are fun to receive, this one was fun to make and give and receive. Check it out!

PS: AD FREAK even liked it.
