Thinking Cap





I made this for my husband before he took his finals.

I am so cute.

Lil' Punkin!



I can't take all the credit for this one.

Although I did design the pumpkin on the invite, it was scanned onto a computer by my partner in crime (who shall remain anonymous until I get her permission to brag about her) and formatted along with the details.  The rest was really simple; I just matted the invite on cardstock and added cute ribbon.  I had to make over sixty of these babies, so we needed it to be FAST!

The only thing I would change is to make the pumpkin on the invite and the pumpkin on the envelope match.  I like the stamp pumpkin better (and I totally stole it from a friend - it's made by "Stampin' Up!").

Warm Wishes



I love mittens:)

Simple Boo


Happy Halloween!

Triple Birthday Card



 This is a sample birthday card for three little boys that all share a birthday (2 of them are brothers)!  I love that we used this picture of all three of them (such personality!).  This card is so simple, but I love the way it turned out.  The hand written "kid text" is my favorite!  The black and white is bold, but any picture/color scheme could be used for this format...the possiblilities are endless!

I had a bunch of our friends help color in the lettering while I was at work if I remember correctly...I'm pretty sure this is the first poster I ever made for his birthday.  OLD school:) Love ya baby!


These are some posters I've made throughout the years for my husband's birthday.  It's become sort of a tradition at our house now that he gets one every year.  He likes to see what I come up with.  I usually have friends and family sign the poster and write a messages to make it more personal; almost like a ginormous birthday card.

We usually keep it up for a few days after all the hoopla has died down too - so he can still feel special on his "un-birthdays":). 

Beckham's First Birthday Poster!



This was a quick poster I made for my little guy's first birthday.  As you can see, my 2 1/2 year old decided to help out with the coloring job.

 I think it adds character:).

It's a girl!



For my dear friend Stephanie and her baby girl, Isabella.  This picture was taken when they brought her home from the hospital for the first time.  I put the poster on her front door so they could see it when the got home (and also to brag to all the neighbors that I have an adorible psudo neice of course!). 

I went with a Christmas baby theme since Isabella was born in the beginning of December.  Isn't she presh?!?!  LOVE them!
