Piece on Earth
Every once in a while a project takes on a life of its own when you are especially inspired by the source material. The big idea was “God Makes Good Things.” And the theme was outer space. A favorite for us. Even after the project had passed, we found ourselves playing around with the style just for fun. So here you go. The most recent iteration.
Monthly Big Idea
Waumba Land is a preschool environment located within North Point Ministries’ churches and their strategic partner churches all over the world. Over the last 10 years we've created countless printables and screen graphics for their monthly Big Ideas in collaboration with North Point Family Ministries, led by Kendra Fleming. Here are some of our favorites.
Monthly Verses
Here are a few of the additional graphics we have created as part of the Waumba Land monthly assets. Children are encouraged to incorporate the motions to help memorize the verse and reference.
Character Design
Most of the work we generate doesn’t involve character design, but we have a had a few opportunities to do so. Here are a few characters from various projects. Most of these have a look and feel that was specific to the client, but we are always open to experimenting with a range of styles and colors.
Family Car Stickers
The ColorWorks Group has created resources and training to better understand your unique wiring. Their approach is based on the four temperaments. We designed these car stickers as way to help families remember their temperaments. Each color has a strength and weakness represented, along with two sizes for adults and children.
Yellow | Sanguine
Red | Choleric
Blue | Melancholic
Green | Phlegmatic
Thank You Cube
The North Point Family Ministries team is always looking for ways to equip parents with tools to help their children thrive relationally and spiritually. The goal here was to design a foam cube and printed parent piece to give away to families to help kids to practice thankfulness.
Playhouse Backdrop
In 2015, Decatur City Church was in the process of finding a permanent location. In the interim, they occupied a temporary space on Sundays and needed the ability to set-up and breakdown environments each week. Still, they hoped to establish an immersive stage design for their preschool ministry. They had an existing Playhouse logo, and asked that we design a backdrop to bring the Playhouse idea to life. They even shared the final files with NPM partner churches, so the design lived on beyond the intended purpose. Love to see it.
Placemat Giveaway
As with the previous project, this is another example of North Point Family Ministries going above and beyond to partner with parents in raising great kids. This double sided placemat was laminated and handed out to families for their kids to use time and time again. Darren Shaw created many of the original animal illustrations. We’ve had the pleasure of working in tandem on Waumba Land’s assets over the years. Primarily ones incorporating illustrated characters.
Waumba Land Collateral
Whenever a new family attends the Waumba Land preschool environment, they are given a bag of goods with helpful information and fun activities to connect them with the church and its mission. This look and feel was something we established a few years back, and it has since become the basis for the Waumba Land brand.

Birthday Mailer Assets
During the pandemic, it was a challenge for churches to continue supporting young children and their growing faith. That’s when we were asked by North Point Family Ministries to create assets to be mailed to kids on their birthday. It was also important that the style correlated with the existing Waumba Land collateral (above). Needless to say, this idea was a huge hit.

Seasonal Coloring Pages
Occasionally parents need to bring their small children to the main service at Gwinnett Church. This gave staff the idea to hand out “Happy Bags” with coloring pages and other goodies to help keep small kids occupied during the service. Way to go Gwinnett Church!
Intersect Activity Pages
During September of 2020, Intersect at Buckhead Church reached out to us about creating letter templates. The goal was for mentors to connect with their mentees despite no longer meeting face-to-face. They would use the templates to write personalized letters based around a monthly theme. We cannot say enough about Intersect and the thought that went into writing this content.
Wedding Invitations
Yes, this is our personal wedding stationery. And yes we worked on it together. ☺️ Everything was hand drawn and lettered. It was one of the first projects we took on as a team, and it will always hold a special place in our little designer/illustrator hearts.
