Hand - blown glass cactus

Last weekend was the Harvest Faire Show- which got me back in the studio to blow some glass! I made these fun glass cacti for the first time! They sold out but I will be making more and listing them in my Etsy shop in November. Feel free to contact me with color requests.

Pumpkins & ornaments will be listed too!

Photo book love

This is why I love working at Mixbook. My kids already cherish the photo books I have created for them. Makes me so happy to see this, they will have these moments documented forever

We recently took my Sprinkled with Love designs and made it one of our new photo book themes. It turned out so cute and works for all kinds of occasions (love, everyday, family, kids) If you haven't tried making a book with Mixbook yet- your missing out! It's so easy and there are so many themes to choose from. We add more new designs every month.What's not shown here is my kids when they started fighting over the Mixbook they hadn't seen yet :)

Shutterfly Noah's Ark Baby Book Template

I'm so excited to finally share a special project I've been working on. I designed a baby book template with @Shutterfly There's color options for boys or girls, the style is called Noah's Ark. It's loosely based after Hello World, but I made some changes to keep it simple & modern with a few cute animals and other images. I can't wait to create my own book for my daughter and share it here. You can check it out and make you own book at Shutterfly now :)
