I work in the Licensing department at American Greetings making social expression product for some really great partners. Sesame Street happens to be one of those great partners and they invited us all down last month for a two day meeting in NYC. We were lucky enough to see a live taping of the show featuring the great Frank Oz bringing Grover to life. (unfortunately we couldn't take photos during the shows production )

Here I am on set...its a surreal feeling actually being there. I kept waiting for us all to break down in song.
Good ol' Mr. Hoopers store....

Bert and Ernie...my personal favorite!

Thanks so much to everyone at Sesame Street! I'm lucky to work with such a great group of people doing great work for kids!

My latest post to the Sketch Slackers. The theme for March was the Muppets...but I really wanted to do a Bert and Ernie paper toy. So, I figured they would be close enough being a Jim Henson creation and all.

I had a lot of fun with these. I really tried to make the paper die reflect Ernie being as free and fun as possible and having bert uptight and annoyed. These are so much fun....look forward to me doing a lot more!
