swimming!  my big water kids have been doing lots of swimming this summer. whether in the pool or in the lake!  they are doing swimmingly since they are almost done with their 2nd 2 week daily classes.

forget the rehearsal part...let's eat! i have had the opportunity to work with such incredible people. i couldn't be happier or more thankful for my clients. yes, each and everyone of you. this time was no exception, i worked with a fabulous mom of the groom! so delightful and engaging. we took my seattle skyline wedding invite and turned it into a seattle rehearsal dinner invite.

the aspen invitation in the couples colors, green + orange + navy. along with the a larger tree image makes one of my popular invites all their own.

i'll be spending my weekend  with these loves of my life! (along with my husband & parents)  there is bound to be lots of smiles  silliness, laughter   lots of fun  and warm weather. not sure if there will be tractors but there will be animals, water, and sand. wishing you an enjoyable weekend like ours is sure to be!

standing in my light + creating shadows  laughing + playing in their jammies being silly  while i'm taking product shots and loving every minute of it.

a client requested custom stationery with a fireweed design...i enjoyed it so much...i made it into a wedding invite. meet avril...

don't you just love monday's?!? no... maybe this will brighten your day. or week. or month. or.... meet my little dachshund pups.     {personalized notepad} we have been a pet free home since our golden passed away over 2 years ago. my children are animal lovers. (they don't discriminate. they love all animals.) however, they pretend to be puppies. yes, all 4 of them. so somedays, i am blessed with 4 pups.  {personalized stationery} they also love curious george.  if you've ever seen curious george then you know about hundley the dachshund.  so one more while snuggling, it hit me. i have to draw my own hundley dachshund. now they need names.  i am looking for D names for each of them.  if i choose your name suggestions you just may get a prize.

can't believe it's saturday...where did the week go? wishing you a fun filled weekend! this is how we celebrated my husband's bday 2 weeks ago. we won't be doing this again this weekend but we'll be finding some other fun things to do.  i hope.

my wedding invitations are versatile.  each design can be made into notepads, stationery, or other invites. like these aspen mountain invites are now bachelorette party invites!  have fun ladies.

we won the lottery with this kid! (honestly, we won the lottery with all our kids) he is such a sweet + caring boy + full of great one liners. the other day at the park ~ "i got my climbing mojo on!"  or after jer kissed his cheek ~ "daddy, i rubbed your kisses in because i love them so" other sweet things he says on a regular basis... "my favorite thing is my family" "i love my whole family so much" "i am the luckiest kid" "mommy, you are wonderful" "should we order pizza tonight? should we?" "mommy, i gotta tell you something...i love you" or these "we're playing john deere heaven" "i want to drive a semi when i get big! where do we buy one, at the semi store?" and so many others that i am drawing a blank.

i had a great memory. emphasis on the HAD...  my last set of twins sucked it out of me at their birth. thank you easton & adler! it's a good thing you're cute:) {designed for my aunt. celebrating a b-day after extensive chemo. you go girl!} plus if you're like me, i have a gazillion things running thru my head...my kids, house, husband, business, family, school, things we need, me, things we need to do, design ideas, projects, etc. etc. etc. so i write notes. make lists.    {a client asked for the calling card birds on a notepad and i obligued} as the holiday season approaches, i'll be working on new notepad designs. until then you can find my other notepads here *see a design you like on one of my invites or personalized stationery and want it in on a notepad. just ask.  you will receive. i'm magic like that!

 i  just love the world wide web!  it has brought about the opportunity to have wedding invitation clients not only all over the united states but all over the worldwhether it be canada, australia, italy, united kingdom, sweden, france, ireland, turkey and to name a few. thank you.

hard to believe july is already over...what a whirlwind month. did you feel the same? now back to july for a bit...i worked with this fantab (yes, i said fantab) couple on their wedding invitations.  i think my fave is the "words of wisdom" they asked for on the rsvp's. how cool is that? i'd love to read all the responses. you can find your winter wedding invitations here .
