Edition #59 Notes

Designed by Blake Stevenson AKA Jetpacks & Rollerskates. His art has always stood out for its playful energy and love of pop culture, and is filled with quirky characters, bold lines, and bright colors with a nostalgic sense of humor. Blake has a style that carries that unmistakable mix of Saturday morning cartoons, skate culture, and oddball charm, and he brought all that to this edition.

Skulls are a huge vibe at Jetpacks & Rollerskates, it's literally in Blake's logo. So for the October release Blake illustrated a cover that brings his very unique and energetic style into, well: skulls. The background colors was printed onto a woven fabric, and I screen printed a dark purple layer onto the cover. Blake designed the background in a freeform sort of way, so that I did not have to be a perfectionist with alignment during my screen printing. Though it is still me who screen printed the covers, so each cover's print saturation varies and shows the hand-made nature of this printing process. Pretty cool.

Fray level: Normal

Most Dapper Notes covers are made using fabric, which naturally frays with use. Each material behaves differently, and this meter will help you gauge how much fraying to expect from your notebook. Read more about fabric covers

Peek-a-BOO

Inside the notebooks we have more of the skulls printed in large onto purple onion skin handmade paper. This paper is super delicate and had to be hand-fed into a my photo printer, but the ink saturation on both sides yielded a lovely result.

Inverted covers

This edition features the very first dark paper packaging, where instead of the standard Dapper Notes green on a light colored background, we have a light blue imprint on a dark purple the coordinates with the cover's ink.

All in the details

Can you pinpoint what inspires you to write, to doodle, to journal your everyday? No matter the source, your Dapper Notes was made with extra care for all the little details, and is ready for you to capture life!

Highest quality construction and materials, keen eye for detail, and delicious design, month after month.

Dana

Dapper Notes are the best quality pocket sized notebooks you can get. The textile cover and thread binding means the books will hold up through time. I love the thick paper as well; good for fountain pens.

I am a lover of texture, both visually and physically, so the different book covers are perfect for me!
