They Draw and Cook

September 23, 2010


Have you seen this site? I am hoping they compile all these into a book so I can have them in print!
Its a brilliant way to promote artistry and combine it with cooking!


Oh wait! They also have a Kids Draw and Cook Website!

Anthology Magazine

September 22, 2010

With the rise of so many online magazines, I thought it would be fun to share Anthology Magazine with you. Proof that print is not dead! I personally prefer to read my magazines in my hand. 
This one is loaded with design fun. See more of the preview issue here!

(baby shower invite with info changed;)




The very talented Mary (Room Polish) and I put together an ABC baby shower for my friend Grace (old college roomie!). We had so much fun planning the details. The celebrations were just in time, because her little girl arrived yesterday morning!! Can’t wait to meet her! Here were just a few of the details.
Will hopefully post the DIY cupcake toppers this week. I am hoping Mary will share the how-to’s for her fabulous bunting and baby sign!

Congratulations Grace and welcome baby Julia!!!!

Style Files: September Details

September 17, 2010

Its all in the details. I am a huge believer that if you buy the right accessories, 
you can turn your wardrobe around. 
Case in point: Fashionista 1) The scarf and sunglasses make this outfit flawless. Reminds me of Audrey Hepburn. Fashionista 2) Do you think her outfit would be the same without the Fedora and killer boots?
I think not. I buy a lot of basics in layers because I have always been an accessories girl. It gives you the freedom to create new looks depending on the day:)

On a more significant note 😉 ….I get to hear my baby’s heartbeat today!! 
The sweetest sound in the world. I cannot wait 🙂 
Happy Weekend!

Its time I share the news.

I have a good excuse for being a little sporadic and inconsistent here on the blog:) …

My husband and I are praising God for giving us a new little life in our family! I am expecting a miracle to enter our world in April! EEE!!! 2 months preggo! I think I may be even MORE excited for this one, because now I fully understand what incredible joy comes with a new baby. I cannot wait for Little G to be a big brother!! He absolutely loves babies. So, keep me in your prayers please!

This is how Little G and I told my husband he was going to be a daddy again…
I had him bring him a little gift wearing this t-shirt. My husband had quite the look on his face. I think a woman falls more in love with her husband when they see them become a father. Nothing like it.
I get to hear the heartbeat next week! I can hardly wait!
I am starting art lessons next week, have a big Holiday fair to prepare for, and trying to keep up with my graphic design jobs, so I may be taking a little blogging break. Will be in touch!

I have the fun of getting to do the style spreads when designing Radiant Magazine.  Made a few new shop discoveries in the process:) This is the spread for the Fall Issue:

    

My whole family + a few cousins are coming to visit for the weekend:) I couldn’t be more excited! My brothers and sisters are such a big part of our lives, and we are on cloud nine when we can all be together. Lots of eating and outdoor fun is in store. I hope you all enjoy the long weekend!
