Since the age of 15, Mitzi Wickersham<\/a> knew she wanted to pursue her passion for graphic design.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really love old posters, like from the 60s and 70s\u2014anything that\u2019s a print-based type of graphic, going back to the printing press,\u201d she said. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Indiana University Bloomington graduate defines her design style as \u201cclean, simple, uncluttered, and functional.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Mitzi <\/span><\/p>\n

She pays tribute to well-known graphic designers such as Herb Lubalin<\/a> and Lotta Jansdotter in her work. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cLubalin\u2019s typesetting and iconic logos and posters were very bold, simple, and type-heavy,\u201d Wickersham said. \u201c I love how he was always able to make a major statement with very \u201clittle\u201d design. More of a modern designer that I follow is Jansdotter. She is a print and pattern maker, and I adore her simple, hand-drawn patterns that are Scandinavian inspired.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Mitzi<\/p>\n

Most of Wickersham\u2019s work revolves around small business branding, ranging from single freelance photographers to a startup granola bar company. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI enjoy [working with] companies that need help with their whole brand and not necessarily hoping to just get a logo and a business card, even though I do get a lot of those too,\u201d she said. \u201cBut the small business branding and marketing is definitely my favorite part.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

For the past six years, Wickersham has primarily used our services to create premium, custom business cards<\/a> and occasionally flyers. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI started working with you guys when you only had one printing facility, so I\u2019ve worked with you guys for quite a while,\u201d she said. \u201cYou guys had great pricing on Spot UV. And then I kept coming back to you because your customer service is the best.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
