2 0 1 7 S E P T E M B E R P R I N T W E A R || 19 Hi Lon, Lunch would be great! We have a favorite hangout just down the street from us. We can just meet you there at noon and come back here afterwards if necessary. Do you want us to bring anything, or are we just going to dis- cuss ideas? We have an image that we have used in a banner that incorporates Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods. We like the fact it represents the community that we work in and LOVE. Please see if it is something you can use, or perhaps we can incorporate some of the components in the shirt design. Looking forward to getting together! Lura & Steve MAKING THE MOMENT So, the project began over a greasy burger and an ice cold Fresca. Be- cause they were celebrating their 40th in the biz, they really wanted to commemorate this historic event with a great design using some of the references and direction provided. Shirt Stop is located in Colorado Springs, an historic area that still represents the long-gone days of the Old West. We decided to go with an old western motif that harkened back to the time of old saloon signs with the painted wood treatment and frame work that was indicative of that era. We did the research and referenced photos to achieve the desired result. The Springs, as we locals call it, has a few well known natural wonders like Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods, which Lura suggested we incorporate into the design.
