I'm still here!

Hopefully you all are doing well and enjoyed the long holiday weekend!

I have been busy working on a few projects. Here's the list:

• Started the website for Milestone Events
• Began teaching myself some new web techniques that I plan to use on the up-update of my website {...don't ask, just know that I'm going to redesign my website again! The saga continues...}. CSS is killer when you're first starting out.
• Website update for Soy Secrets as well as making more product labels and designing the business cards.
• Trying to get a hang of this whole "wife" thing. It's not design related, but it still takes up time!

So forgive me for not posting lately, but I will be back again later this week with some exciting posts!

Until then...

My night consisted of...

this:



for these:









{oh yeah, and America's Next Top Model}

I am such a dedicated designer that I hand punched 400 business card edges {100 cards, four edges}. My client needed her business cards by this coming Sunday, and with the rounded edges the turnaround and shipping time may not have worked in her favor. I remembered that I had a rounded edge punch, so I told her that I would order the regular cards and hand punch the edges. The cards arrived today {technically yesterday since it's after 12} and I completed them in about an hour. In the end, my client was happy and she saved money {no need for rush shipping!}.

Working^3

As I stated in this post, I have a lot going on! I completed the family reunion flyer and it turned out well (pics later). Currently I am working on the branding for Milestone Events, an event planning company based here in Atlanta. This is the logo that I designed {minus the yellow "blogger image border"}

Business cards will be submitted to the printer tomorrow, and the website will be under construction shortly. All of this, along with finalizing my website and business cards {by next Tuesday according to my monthly goal sheet} is keeping me on my toes and I'm loving every moment!

So sad, but true

I came across this bag by Modern Toss and just had to post it. I want one and would get it if it weren't in the UK {blasted international shipping!}. Oh well.

Inspiration Board II

Hello out there! Hopefully you are enjoying the day. It's finally sunny and not raining here anymore *yay*

Here's another inspiration board that I created on Polyvore. The idea was to create a nature themed board. The greens and blues together always remind me of nature {the sky and grass}. I absolutely love to be outside, and I always say that I would love to have an office in the woods surrounded in glass {hey, I love nature, but I can do without the bugs!}.



Enjoy your Saturday!

Something, something on the wall...

A side project that I have been working on is making our apartment more of an inspirational space to reside in. My husband and I are both artists, so it makes sense for us to live in a creative environment. I started a drawing/painting to place on this wall a couple of months ago, but have yet to complete it. I'll get to it eventually...

Here are the before pictures. When I complete the piece I will post the after!







Adieu!

My Workspace

Hello all!

One thing I love to do is peek into other people's lives and see the interior of their homes {especially office spaces}. I find it very inspiring, and it's interesting to see people's personal style and how they decorate/arrange/organize, etc {and what they have!}. So with that, I felt it would be good to put my work space out there since I have looked into so many others. Granted, it may not be snazzy like many others I have seen, but it's where I sit for HOURS at a time non-stop, so I love it. Perhaps I'll do a little more in there decor wise at some point...

I hope you enjoyed peeking into my world!
