LOVE print

Hi there! I hope you all had a great weekend… did you watch Super Bowl? Or Puppy Bowl? :)

Heartfish Blog has a new look now to go with the Heartfish Press website as you realized. Simpler and cleaner, has bigger images and I’ll be organizing contents more so it’ll be easier to find what you are looking for!

Anyways. My copy of the UPPERCASE issue 8 has arrived and guess what…? I received my own sampler (see everyone’s amazing pieces here)! What are the chances, right? I’m lucky that way, I guess… :) Well, someone else should enjoy this… so I have decided to give that one away here on my blog!

LOVE print

To enter, please leave a comment here and tell me your favorite love song by the end of the day Friday, February 11th and I will pick a winner on Monday, February 14th — on Valentine’s Day <3 All your tweets @heartfishpress and facebook mentions count, too :)

Good luck! xo Hijiri

Limited Edition LOVE Print

Posted on by Hijiri

With Valentine’s Day coming right soon, the love is definitely in the air everywhere! and I LOVE it :)

I printed this very limited edition of LOVE print, which will be featured in an upcoming book… (more about that later)

I love overlapping effects that letterpress can do so I wanted to try that — first, setting up letter O and E:

Adjusting the placement… with consideration about the letter L and V later…

and print the letter O and E.

Now, setting the letter L and V to overlap the letter O and E:

Test print without the ink + adjusting the placement…

Let’s see…

aww I love the shapes and colors that they make each other!

Still adjusting the spacing until I am happy…

Here is the final product! Limited to only 25 prints!

I hope you like it :) xo Hijiri

Happy Thanksgiving!

Posted on by Hijiri

Wishing you a very Happy Thanksgiving (if you are in US)!!! We are off to Boston now to spend time with our family :) I am so thankful for my family and friends and that you are here with me. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Image is from something that I was working on the other day… LOVE… I’m sending you my love here <3

I will be taking break from blogging this weekend, but maybe you should check back to see some holiday shopping deals… (hint, hint)

Have a happy weekend, everyone!
