What's Old... Is New Again!

Old is IN! Vintage-inspired prints of birds, old lettering, and lace... a string of pearls from a wedding long ago... a vintage-inspired apron - these are the hottest things right now, and they were also beautiful long ago. Vintage-inspired prints and themes have inspired some of my designs, as well. I hope you enjoy them, and I hope they remind you of a "vintage" story of long ago!

Dots, dots, dots!

I have decided to make some posts every now and then about current trends. Well, the Polka Dot trend is rampant! It is everywhere you look... baby bags, kids and adult clothing, bedding, and of course, STATIONARY! Above are some great fabrics I found that really display the design, and below are some of my designs that incorporate the theme. Enjoy!

Baby Designs




For my first post, I decided to display my most favorite designs first, and of course, I chose baby designs! Whenever I get a call to make a birth announcement, a christening invitation, or a baby shower invitation, I am thrilled! There is something about babies that I just cannot resist! I hope you enjoy these designs just as much as I have enjoyed making them!




Pretty in Pink!!

Who doesn't love pink bows, stripes, and polka dots?



























These are some of my favorite cards I have ever made. A new baby's monogram seen for the first time, stripes that remind you of neopolitan ice cream, a beautiful baby carriage, and pickles & ice cream. All of these things scream baby girl to me and get me so excited to make these cards.


It's a Boy!









It's all blue and green for these little guys. I love the photo cards I made of my godson when he was born. It's a great way to show off the new addition, and the square cards with the chocolate envelopes are very trendy!
