I am so excited to be part of another amazing giveaway with Fabulous Friday Freebies!!!

Their theme this time around is "Make a Wish" in celebration of her daughters Make A Wish trip - A DISNEY CRUISE - honoring her life and all she's overcome. I have followed her story for a few years now and I am constantly in awe of the miracle and beauty of this little life. If you want to know more you can find her story HERE.

Perfect Shalom...

"YAY! It's LIVE!"

Yes, these were the first words that popped into my head this morning as I checked into the happenings of computer world (aka Facebook).

My dear friends new website/blog Perfect Shalom is officially live! Which means I can finally share the beautiful logo I created for this new all-in-one homepage of hers. I love getting to work with creative, talented and encouraging clients. And my dear friend Mandy is no exception. Over the past few years it has been a blessing to be able to follow her family and their antics via her blog posts. Watch the creativity blossom through her growing photography business Mandy Smith Studio. Pray with them as they packed up their 6 kids and headed to the other side of the world. Not to mention the amazing giveaways she hosts through Fabulous Friday Freebies.

I am so excited for this new site to finally be live. It is beautiful!!!! Please go take a look at the Perfect Shalom website, Mandy's web designer did an amazing job! AND don't forget to check out her new Perfect Shalom Facebook page as well.

May this site continue to be a blessing and encouragement to countless others as it has been for me.

ENJOY!

And a little signature to match as well... Cute!

Happy 4th of July week!!!!I recently participated in a fun giveaway hosted by my wonderful friend at Fabulous Friday Freebies. For this event I created a patriotic special edition of my "What A Difference A Day Makes" prints I designed earlier this year using the dates from my own little family as a sample for the giveaway. Can I just say that I LOVE how it turned out and just had to share it with you to kick off this festive week!!!! (And yes I even had one printed up small so I could use it with my 4th of July decorations around the house.)

ENJOY and hope everyone has a wonderful week celebrating Independence Day!!!

Christmas Countdown #3...

A SOUTHERN WONDERLAND...

Today's Christmas countdown is very special to me. It represents people who share memories of one of the best years of my life. Capernwray Hall, England!

A few years ago I re-connected with these friends who I met while I was in school in England. This couple actually met at school and later got married and started a beautiful "little" family. I say that with reserve as they have 5 kids and one more on the way!!!

My dear friend has also started her own blog which I LOVE following. I was even given the opportunity a few months ago to be a part of a wonderful wedding giveaway she was hosting on her site.
(Go HERE to see my past post, Go HERE to see her giveaway blog).

And through that participation on her blog, I got to design their beautiful Christmas cards. YAY!

She also has a sister blog with an incredible story of Gods faithfulness and peace in the midst of the storm. If you ever have the chance you should read their story HERE. Amazing!!!

M and C you have such a beautiful family that I know is so very blessed by the Lord. May you all continue to shine brightly as a light and encouragement for so many!
