Fall Preview

Before we get to that, what do you think of our new look?!?! I am so in love with it. I want to send out a HUGE thank you to my friend Marcy at Magic By Marcy for designing it for me. Her work is just plain awesome. She makes custom designs for invitations, announcements, holiday cards, even iron-on transfers, and much more. Have you checked her out yet? I can't wait to see her designs for Christmas this year.

On to the preview:

Here's What's New

I am so excited to announce that I will be in two upcoming craft shows in October. The first will be Mom's Time Out Fall Event which is Sunday, October 2nd from noon to 4pm @ Earth Fare. I am so excited to be a part of this event. I've been to several Mom's Time out events as a customer in the past and it has always been wonderful.

The second event is the Merry Market 2011 on Saturday October 15th from 9am-3pm @ Bradfordville First Baptist Church. This year is their 10th aniversary so it will be a special celebration. I am stoked to be able to participate in this awesome event.

So this means I need to beef up my stock and that means SHOPPING! Off to JoAnn's I went. I started with my pillowcase dress because those are my best sellers. I got some pretty good deals on the fabrics and I just love what I got. There are already a few of the new designs up at the shop and the rest are soon to follow.

Hoot, Hoot... Look Whoo's One!

I can not begin to describe how excited I was to plan my daughter's first birthday party. Don't get me wrong, I was in no way, shape, or form ready for my little baby to be one. However, the excitement to organize a celebration to mark this milestone in her life was just to much for me to contain. I'll try to give you a little perspective... the planning started in the beginning of June! And all that excitement and planning paid off. I couldn't be happier with he way everything turned out.

 

Printalicious Party Time

One of the biggest milestones for parents is their child's first birthday. The excitement in planning that first ever birthday party is exhilarating. And I had the opportunity to do it twice for my little girl! My family lives quite a distance from us, and some of my family members are not able to travel to us. Since I have a sister and an aunt with birthdays in August as well, we decided to make a the trip to them to celebrate the special occasions.

We had the wonderful opportunity to combine my daughter's first birthday and my sister's sixteenth birthday in a printalicious joint milestone celebration. My sister loves zebra print, and her favorite color is yellow. So what goes better with yellow zebra print than pink leopard print?! That way there is consistence while each girl is able to retain their own individuality. And let me tell you, the results were too cute for words! 

Happy First Birthday, Jaycelyn!

My amazing little girl turned one today! I am so happy, and a little sad all at the same time. I am loving every second of her growing up. I love watching her learn new things every day. I love seeing her personality grow more and more. But at the same time, she is no longer a baby... see has officaly become a toddler. It has been one heck of a year. There have been some lows, but I would not change one second. I am so blessed to be the mother to this enchanting creature that is my daughter, and I am so excited about the year to come.
