Sneak Peek...

I started a new venture, and I'm going to see where it takes me. Graphic design is my number one love, but hey, I can add new things to the roster! Here is a sneak peek...

More details to come :)

Happy New Decade!

A new decade indeed! The holiday season was great, and I had a nice break. Now it's time to get back to business!
One thing that I vowed to myself to complete before the new year was my updated business card. Here is the result {and might I say, I am very pleased!}.

What a way to ring in the new year! Although I didn't finish everything that I wanted to on the last week of the year, this one was the most important, so I still feel good!

Crafty Christmas III

Another year has gone by, and it is already Christmas week! Since my husband and I are new homeowners, we are trying to be more conscious of our spending. I always do something for my coworkers, but this year it had to be something that was not too expensive. I decided to attach a tag to a candy cane, and write a little note on the back. I used scissors with scalloped blades to cut a design on the edges of each tag. I then finished it off with a red ribbon which was tied to the candy cane. I am very pleased with the results!

O(ur) Christmas Tree!

I just wanted to post a picture of our Christmas tree. It's gold and black this year. We might put some lights outside, so I will post those pics if we do.

A little tardy

It has been a busy month, but I wanted to post a few pictures from Thanksgiving. The actual turnout looks a tad different from the inspiration board, but that's okay, life is all about changes!

My Little Pony...

I don't know if I'm late, but this is totally new to me. My sister showed me a site today that sells modified versions of My Little Pony. The creator is Finland artist Mari Kasurinen. She starts with a regular pony, and adds costumes, hair, makeup, etc to make them into celebrities and movie characters. I love it! Here are my two favorites-

My Little Lady Gaga

My Little Bride (Kill Bill!)

Thanksgiving Inspiration Board

Since we have a house now, we decided to host Thanksgiving this year! My grandma got us a beautiful set of china (similar to the image below, but our set has a beautiful red, gold and peach design on it), so I am going to base the rest of the design off of it. I created an inspiration board at Polyvore to try to get started with ideas of the feel that I want.
