We were told recently that my mum suffers from Multiple Sclerosis. Yes, it’s horrible news and we would all wished for a small infection or something that could have been cured by a couple of antibiotic dose, but unfortunately it is not the case. However, even if MS is no fun at all, it still . . . → Read More: Cheer up present

Christmas Card for Chantalle's Daycare
Sometimes our designer’s skills come in handy for our family and friends who need help with a project. For us, it’s great fun as it’s low pressure work (let’s put it this way: we do it for free as long as we have total control on the art direction ) . . . → Read More: Chantalle’s Daycare Christmas Card

Notebook
I hate wasting paper and I can be sort of “arts & crafty”… I found a good way to combine both: making notepads from recycled paper. Yep, it sounds kind of sad, as if really I should get a life but I can assure you that it is a cool thing to do as I am getting loads . . . → Read More: Illustrated notebook – or, “How not to waste paper”

Baby Bunnies
When I first saw the picture of my cousin’s little girl in that cute little pyjama, I couldn’t resist: I had to put it in a photomontage, no matter what! Putting her in a field with some other bunnies was sort of an obvious choice given the way she is dressed. The look on . . . → Read More: Baby Bunnies

Rick Mercer Report
Nevermind the “Daily Star-esque” title of this blog post… It did actually happened! See, there is a weekly CBC show broadcasted all across Canada called the Rick Mercer Report.

Steve Komisarek
Steve is a huge fan of the Canadiens de Montréal. Some ill-intended person put an ugly Maple Leafs hat on Steve’s head and pushed him down the slope while he was having his power nap… Poor Steve, being associated with the loser team from yesterday’s big opening match is really not something he’s happy with!

A very busy year for Yellow Car Design
We landed in Toronto on the 26th September, 2008… Exactly one year ago. After a very long flight from Gatwick to Pearson we finally landed in this big, unknown city and all we had was a couple of suitcases and a few nights booked at the EconoLodge (in . . . → Read More: 1 year in Toronto, already
