Merry Christmas in July!!!!

Yep thats right.. time to beat the heat and think winter!!!! And since today is the 25th I thought I would jump right in and wish you a Merry Christmas in July!

Rewind with me if you will, to last fall when I was honored to take some LOVEly family photos of a dear friend of mine for their 20th Wedding Anniversary. (You can view that post HERE). Now, fast forward to a few weeks ago when my friend came to me with a wonderful idea... She wanted to do a Christmas Card with their photos to be sent out not in December, but NOW, in July!!!

I LOVE IT!!!! Creative, fun ideas just make my day and I am so excited to share this card with you all.

ENJOY, and hope this helps everyone to think cool thoughts!!!!

Let them eat Cake....

... or how about just get hitched?? Yep, this weekend is a big one for celebrations all around the country, and a dear friend of mine decided that since the whole family was already gonna be in one place for a family reunion this weekend... why not top the day off with a Wedding?!?! I LOVE it!!

I also love how I got to help with the whole festivity. The bride already had some fun  special paper picked out for her informal wedding invites but she needed a little wording help. SO.. She sent me an image of the paper and I custom designed her some text to match and TA DA, super fun Invite!

Vicky darling, I wish you blessings on your big day and many many years of celebrations to come. ENJOY!!!!

Custom Designed Text + Bride's Special Paper

= One Awesome DIY Invite

Red, White & Birthdays!!!

Happy July Everyone!!!! It is time to get on our party hats, set out the flag, pack a picnic, slap on the sunscreen and prepare for Americas Birthday this weekend!!! YAY! I love the 4th of July and all the celebrations that come with it...

So to kick off the weekend festivities, I thought I would share a little ad I did that came out in todays edition of the The Sopris Sun. (If you live in the Carbondale area check it out, it is the whole back page!!!). I was asked to help design this ad in honor of Jim Calaway's 80th Birthday and all that he has done for the community as well as Colorado Mountain College, where I graduated. I am so excited with how fun it turned out and just heard this morning that he LOVED it and wants to save 100 copies. YAY!

Congrats on 80 years Jim, and thanks for being such an amazing a part of my education! ENJOY!
