Happy New Year and Valentine's Day

Hey y'all! Happy New Year, I can't believe January is over and February is here!

I took a little break after Christmas, but I'm back in full swing. I've been designing several invites with pretty interesting themes, making toppers, and re-doing my personal blog.
I'm also in the process of expanding the categories in my shop. I'll be adding tabs for theme birthdays, baby showers, and various parties. I've got my work cut out for me, as I have about 7 years worth of designs to post. YIKES! Please bear with me!

In the meantime, for you moms of boys...here's a link to a free valentine's printable I designed.

Enjoy!

Popular Designs of 2011

Well, the 2011 Christmas Card season is underway. I have enjoyed designing for so many new customers, so thanks to those of you who have passed my designs along.

I thought I'd let you in on what's been popular so far.

These seem to be popular among the local folks...

These seem to be faves of the not-so-local...

Just so ya know...

If you haven't ordered your cards yet, there's still plenty of time! Just go to the "shop" link on the left.

Finally!

It took me a while due to a few bumps in the road, but I made it just in time for the HOLIDAY season.

It's been a VERY busy fall; LOTS of fun parties to help clients style, cute invites to design, and getting ready for the Christmas card rush! I am so thankful for it all. I love what I do and the great people who give me the pleasure of designing for them.
To say thanks...

Party Time!

This is the best time of year to come up with an excuse to have a party! The weather couldn't be more PERFECT. The last few weeks I have been creating up a storm...lots of baby showers (all girls for some crazy reason), outside birthday parties, and fall parties.

I thought I'd share a few of my creations with you.

(I don't like to be a spoiler. And I try to respect the privacy of my clients soooo...Names and addresses have been changed to protect the innocent ;0))

What kind of party are you hosting this fall?
