💯 Feeling some feels as I wrap up this project, but oh man, this basically just wet my whistle for learning lettering. (And um, I have a WAY deeper appreciation for all the letterers out there who make it look so easy!) So for my last post, I just want to say a huge heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who supported me on this hundred day journey. Every bit of encouragement, like, comment, share, and hi-five was so appreciated, and really helped keep me motivated. Not to mention all the other participants who showed up (and are still going) who made this that much more fun! I will definitely keep practicing, and makin' stuff, and sharing along the way. Thanks y'all! #The100DayProject #100daysofthinkythumbnails

99/100 I read a quote back in June in the 1/2 way mark email sent out by @greatdiscontent and it stuck with me ever since. It's from one of the other #The100DayProject artists, @thejellyologist, who said “I’ve had to let go of little perfectionist tendencies and accept that this project is as much, if not more so, about the discoveries made along the way—of which there have been many—than it is about the highly curated and crafted image that gets posted each day.” I could not have said it better! This project has been so much fun, and tho many of the posts are far from perfect in so many ways, I really loved the act of showing up and practicing. Of trying new things, and letting go of my perfectionism in the interest of just doing and discovering. #100daysofthinkythumbnails

98/100 This is one of those things I need to print and hang over my desk so I can see it daily. Quote by David Allen. #The100DayProject #100daysofthinkythumbnails

97/100 Reflecting back to 2 yrs ago, when right about now I had been in labor for just about 20 hrs with ~12 more to go. It was exhausting physically and mentally, but at the end of it all we got the greatest gift we could have ever imagined. I was so grateful that I got to work one-on-one with my yoga instructor @nagalotusyogi before Amelia was born. She worked with me on amazing poses to help prepare my body for giving birth, and the ujjayi breath I learned at her studio was a *huge* part of what got me through those long, intense hours. I will always be so incredibly grateful to Lona for her support and generosity during one of the most important times of my life. ♡ #The100DayProject #100daysofthinkythumbnails

96/100 I got mad love for this state I've called home for the last 4 years. I grew up coming to Maine in the summers, and my family has deep roots here, so I feel like maybe I was destined to make my own home here, too. This lettering feels a little too trippy, but I like the concept to push further with more time. #The100DayProject #100daysofthinkythumbnails

95/100 tried to go a bit faster with this one. It's rough but I definitely want to practice more with this style. This one comes from Kurt Cobain. We watched the HBO documentary about him recently (which was....odd), and it reminded me of this quote. #The100DayProject #100daysofthinkythumbnails

94/100 You know what else was a crazy idea? Quitting my job the same summer I was planning my wedding to start my own business. It's been a crazy, amazing ride, but I'm the luckiest because I get to do this with my partner in crime @megankeogh. She's one kind, über-talented, hilarious, badass, hard-working boss lady, and she keeps teaching me how to be a better person, designer, mother, and friend. Love you tons, dude! Here's to 7 more!🍸#The100DayProject #100daysofthinkythumbnails

93/100 Man, 3 months ago this project seemed like a really crazy idea. But now that it's almost over, and I scroll back through all the posts, it makes me so happy I decided to challenge myself. Quote by Jacqueline Novogratz #The100DayProject #100daysofthinkythumbnails
