Happy MLK Day!




Today is Martin Luther King Day...many people have the day off. My husband doesn't, so I am working as well. Although I'm updating my 2007 tax spreadsheets (FUN!!!!) and filing papers from a huge stack (a mini Mount Everest of receipts and paid bill stubs). Ah, the glamorous life of self-employment...where every scrap of paper is scrutinized with the question: Can I write this off?
I've managed to complete a stack of work for my greeting card/stationery company client by today's deadline. The next deadline is coming up quick, so I'm catching my breath. I spent the weekend working on that and printing envelopes for a bride-to-be. A good portion of Sunday found me watching the NFL playoff games. Go Patriots!!! No, I'm not a football fan. But I was determined to sit still on the overstuffed chair for a long period of time...my husband had the games on and I was determined to be lazy. It worked out.
Today's images are from a Save the Date folded card I designed last summer...it was digitally flat printed with a local vendor. The bride-to-be wanted something very preppy and beach-y since she is getting married on The Cape. She wanted to include a message to her guests and also the hotel options in the area, so I thought a folded card would be a good way to fit all of her requirements in and still be easy to save in a drawer or tack to the fridge. She sent the card in a bright green envelope that coordinated perfectly. A fun project for what will be a fun wedding! See y'all in this space later!

Sabbatical Day 5




It's going to rain all day today. I can't complain; we really need it! We are cleaning up and preparing for a visit from friends tomorrow; so we are excited for it. Today I am concepting designs for my holiday card packaging. I'm really excited with how it's coming out so far...I may end up using it for my packaging for card sets AFTER the holidays...that is, if I can manage to finalize it! Too many ideas = hard decisions. Today's photos are of a recent Save the Date I did for a fabulous bride I'm working with. I love the color theme she is using...
Happy Friday everyone! Enjoy!
