Wish I Had a Shirt: Penguins
If there was a mascot for winter, it would be a penguin. Am I right? Somehow, in January, there is, in fact, a Penguin Awareness Day. A day to celebrate the penguin for always being the best dressed or for being flightless but still cool. It just so happens that we have some stellar penguin images in our artwork library. And, some of our [...]
Customer Stories: Valentine’s Day
February conjures up images of hearts, cupids and generally lovey-dovey stuff. It holds the dreaded, er, sweet celebration of love and lovers: Valentine’s Day.

Customer Stories: Unique Christmas Cards
Did I just hear a collective groan at the thought of family Christmas card photos? Oh, that was just me? Shoot. Here’s the thing. I’m allergic to Christmas – well, the trees anyway. But my family insists on having one each year. So our Christmas morning photo stars me playing the role of Rudolph, completely red-nosed. (Bet you’ll [...]
Ugly Sweater Day at CustomInk
Ever get an oddly-colored, super-snazzy (ahem, ugly) sweater as a gift from a distant relative? Perhaps something that puts the “err” in “merry”? We asked each Inker to “flaunt what your grandma made ya!” And yesterday, as you can see in the photos below, they donned their jingle bells, appliqués, sequins and detachable collars, wearing [...]
CustomInk Giving Tree
November brings falling leaves, lots of food and, of course, Black Friday – the first day of the holiday shopping frenzy! Maybe you’re already in the giving spirit or maybe the bug hasn’t bitten you yet.
