Holiday Card Love

2010-01-28T18:58:00.000-08:00

I always love seeing everyone else's holiday cards so I thought I'd share my own from this past Christmas - adorned with my little chica. Mom, dad and the dogs didn't make the cut this year.

I am my own worst critic when it comes time to doing my own. Not to mention there were so many fun photos I wanted to use how could I ever narrow it down to one?!

Last week I took my little one to have her pictures taken for the first time. Sad I know considering she is 2 1/2. I've actually felt guilty for some time that it has taken me this long to get them done. Well, guilt no longer. After I got these amazing magazine worthy shots back from one very talented undiscovered gem, Allie Carroll, it just all seemed to melt away. I melted, I teared, I love. See for yourself.

Holiday Cards Preview

As the holiday orders & talk are starting full swing along with the coolness our weather is bringing, we're starting to get excited for the holidays! So what better time to show some of our holiday favorites this year, which includes holiday cards (photo and non-photo), calling cards, stickers and stationery.

With all these fun designs, I'm starting to think family photos and what card I'll be using this year. Here's our family card from last year. Because we were in the middle of an out of state move (yes just before the holidays - never do that again), I took these photos quickly at our house. I look back and love thinking about the fun just those quick 10 minutes were trying to get at least one good pic for our holiday card.

Very fun blog giveaway alert! I was actually going to post something about how much I love all of my jewelry I recently got from Kristin Pearce while I saw her at the stationery show. There's one piece in particular that I can't stop wearing{see pic below} and there have been a few nights I've been known to wear it in my sleep. Well, it turns out she's having an awesome giveaway on her blog for that favorite bracelet I love. I have it in the beige tan.

Visit her blog here for details about the giveaway

Part 2: The gift of giving - grads

2009-05-29T12:48:00.000-07:00

Here are a few of my favorite gifts that have been ordered for graduations. Paperweights are a great idea as are calling cards for recent grads (great for high schoolers and college kids too) who have yet to land their first job. Check 'em out below!

CALLING CARDS

PAPERWEIGHTS

The gift of giving - teachers

2009-05-28T21:18:00.001-07:00

It's that time of the year! The paperweight orders have been rolling in everyday over the last few weeks. So I thought I would share my most favorite design for the teacher paperweights. It has been a super popular one.

With super fun designs and great colors to pick from these easily add the perfect punch of personal style and sass to anyone's desk!

So remember your most loved and appreciated teachers and those exhausted, excited, "here I come world" grads today.
