Happy Mother's Day!

Sunday is Mother's Day. {Hi Mom}

What special something are you doing for your mom to celebrate how wonderful she is?

My younger sister and I have decided to collaborate on a meal together. I think it is going to be a light pasta and shrimp dish with some fresh veggies tossed in a light lemon and olive oil sauce... yum. 

My little sister and my mom showin' some love {xox}

Happy Mother's Day Mom. You are Amazing. And I love You. 

Hundreds of dewdrops to greet the dawn,
Hundreds of bees in the purple clover,
Hundreds of butterflies on the lawn,
But only one mother the wide world over.

Save the Date Postcards

I worked with some friends of mine to create these special Save the Dates. 

The water colors were all original and since they were getting married in the fall we chose fall "fruits"

It was the brides idea to use the fall items in the shape of the numbers for the dates...

what a clever girl.

TIP:

Choosing a post card option is a simple and inexpensive way to send your save the dates. 

Often your Envelopes and stamps are the bulk of the cost and to cut them out completely takes a great burden from the total. 

Pretty Awesome Paper Flower Bouquets.

I have always thought fresh flowers provided a specific special something that oozed delightfulness. 

But what do you think about paper flower bouquets? They never die, droop or fade. 

And look how exquisite One Happy Girl from etsy can custom make them.

How lovely. I think I am still a fresh flower girl, but imagine an indoor crafty wedding with lots of paper flowers everywhere and pennant banners and adorableness spread everywhere. Can you see it?

I think I could get into that. 

Letterhead design

Its been fun working with Real Estate, agent Karol Hess. 

We have worked on quite a few projects together for both her business promotion and personal pleasure. 

Above is the letter head design I created for her, she calls herself Karol with a "K" thus explaining the giant K. And it just so happens to mesh nicely with the fact that she works for Keller Williams.

What do you think?

We also used the same illustration in her business card design and she was able to utilize her illustration in an advertisement as well. Way to go Karol!

Because we all need a little sometimes...

Kind of a good idea...

I am always squirreling away ideas for a wedding if one should ever pop up and don't you just LOVE this one? Dave and I have always just assumed we would get hitched by the water, 

wouldn't these add a nice glow to the nights dreamy adventure!?

Vacation!

Dreaming of a vacation. I think a trip to Colmar, France would do me just fine. 

Look at the color of those houses and that sky... oh take me there!

The Royal Wedding!

Today is the Day!

So, we have been waiting for today forever!

The news has been filled with speculation about what it would look like and this morning I woke up to these images of Kate's Wedding Dress! My first reaction was that it was too much and it over whelmed her. But upon further examination of the details I totally love it! 

Look at those pretty lace sleeves and the detail on her veil. Isn't her waistline so tiny? I also love that her dress is so fancy and her flowers are so simple. I think it say a lot about the bride. 

And I love the red military uniform that William wore. That color is so striking.

Gosh I love weddings. What a wonderful thing for the world to be able to focus on. 

It is a rare occasion that the world can turn their eyes to one event that is celebratory and joyous. 

Going to a wedding...

I am heading to a wedding in Charleston this month and I am in search of a DRESS. 

It is going to be an outdoor wedding with croquet and bocci ball, but pretty nice. 

I am thinking of going with a shorter dress with a stellar wide brimmed hat! What are your thoughts? 

I found this site Lulus with TONS of dresses to choose from. I like these and they even 

have a vintage collection, which is quite cute.

Go ahead...

Just make one...

Don't you love these wish tickets?!

Wouldn't they be cute at a little girls birthday party?

Glittery Flats!

Look at this adorable idea by the folks at We are not Martha. 

DIY glitter shoes! These could spice up any of your old tired shoes... or flops

And if you pop on over to We are not Martha, you can check out a step by step 'how-to' explaining how you can make your own pair!

Cute kids fashion... or not?

I know. So cute right?

I am wondering whether its "So cute" or "So weird" what are your thoughts on this flower hat?

My weekend was great, how was yours?

This weekend was Kammi's Birthday, so I headed up to Harrisburg to dine with a great group of girls. 

We feasted on Indian Cuisine and than stuffed ourselves further with cake...

Yes it was as good as it looked. 

Sunday morning I woke up to Easter. We headed to my cousin's new adorable house for a really fabulous brunch with Mimosas and monkey bread (yum).

And look who was there.... Baby Bodhe!

And Sunday evening we feasted further on a delicious Easter ham... 

Oh those deviled eggs... yum yum yum!

And I think its so funny that my mom dyed these eggs by herself... 

I keep smiling to myself about it because I think its so funny.
