Free Printable Extravaganza!

I have to admit the Holiday season has just crept right up on me! I still have a TON of things to do, so I will be putting on my elf hat this weekend to (fingers crossed) get 90% of it all done! I love the season, especially with my daughter getting older. It seems to get more exciting every year! 

I wanted to give all of my amazing clients, fans, friends and family some special gifts this year. I want you all to know how much I appreciate your love, support, and business over this past year. It has been overwhelmingly amazing! I will be posting many free printables for everyone over the weeks to come!

The first extravagant FREE printable is very special to me. I've always told my daughter "I love you bunches and bunches". {Back story....It was something my Grandpa would always say to me at the end of every phone conversation.} Well, when Addisyn first attempted to say it back she would say "I love you punkins and punkins". That has stuck between the two of us over the years, and we now tell that to eachother all the time. She likes to express her love with the amount of "punkins" she adds to the end! Oh kids I love their minds!! 

I made this print for her and would like to share it all with you!

Vintage Postcard Save the Date

I am so excited for one of my jobs that I had to share with you all the progress of it. My sister is getting married and we have started working on the Save the Dates!  Their wedding is going to be a more formal event so something fun was decided for the Save the Dates. I just love the inspiration that was chosen for me to work from. Pictures of the happy couple will be placed in the big Gaylord wording.

(They are getting married at the Gaylord Texan Hotel)

I will keep you all updated with the progress of this piece!

Cozy Knits

Well, it is time to admit that Winter is just around the corner (or already here for some people). Bundling up to keep warm is a must when the low temperatures and snow hits. Keeping my hands warm is a must! Being on the computer and designing all day my hands freeze! So, I have found some awesome fingerless handmade gloves from some very talented Etsy shops. Whatcha think? I can't decide which ones to get!

1. These neutral cozy gloves are from Reflectionsbyds.

2. Colorful and sure to match any coat and outfit these are

from The Beachcomber Studio.

3. I am loving the button detail on these gray gloves from Nastiadi.

4. A delicious plum color and the versatility from mittens to fingerless is perfect - from CleosCraft.

5. The bright red color warms me right up! Along with the beautiful snowflake beading detail makes these gloves from Eva Rica simply gorgeous.
