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!

Mandy Smith Studio

It is a beautifully rainy day here and not only am I exited for the rain, I am also super excited to share with you this weeks Logo addition into the September Showcase!

A dear friend of mine recently took the leap of taking one of her passions and talents and starting her own photography business, Mandy Smith Studio. She has an amazing eye and is WONDERFUL with children. Time after time her photos capture the pure joy and beauty in life. This girl is gonna go far with her camera and I am honored to be a part of her big adventure by designing her official logo.

Mandy, best of luck darling, and many blessings as you continue to seek and capture the beauty in the world and people around you!

ENJOY!

Todays countdown, however, is brought to you by a lovely friend of mine who is PERFECTLY happy with her southern, non-snowy, Christmas!!! I present to you the too-cute-for-words Smith Family!!!

Mandy is such a dear treasure to me. Always encouraging and positive and the wonderful stories on her blog Seventh Smith help me to know that, as a mom, I am gonna be ok!!! This is the second year I have had the honor of designing Christmas Cards for this family and I am so excited how they turned out.... Just with I lived closer so our little ladies could all play tea-party!!!

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!
