Everyday is a Holiday Ohh this is fantastic!! Thansk so much for sharing!! Back in the Summer of 2008 Aaron and I painted a "Keep Calm And Have A Cupcake" we had nooo idea how crazy things would get. Soon we were working 17 hr days trying to get them out the door..adn then had to switch to prints! We are STILL selling them! And have a line in Barnes & Noble here in the States and Chapters in Canada. We were lucky enough to be featured in the NY TImes magazine when all of the parodies were really blowing up! :) here's a link: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/05/magazine/05FOB-consumed-t.html?_r=1
