The Charrette <3 Edmonton: Our Valentine’s Day Cards

9 February 2011 2 Comments

For the last few days the Journal has been asking for ideas for Valentine’s Day cards they’ll be getting professionally designed, based on an idea they pinched from a blog that makes journalism themed Valentines. So now we’re stealing the idea from them and creating a few of our own Valentine’s Day cards to the city—designed in an amateur-ish way to boot. Enjoy!

    I seriously wish that these were real. Someone needs to make this happen.

    Not to nitpick, but that last one is a photo of the refineries, albeit taken from the general vicinity of the Gold Bar treatment plant.

    There, nit picked.
