Christmas Card Time!

I'm ALL about free stuff. I'm big into couponing....even tried to write a blog about that, but I just wasn't passionate about it!

I try every year to get our Christmas cards made for free. So far, I've been pretty successful! Those things can be expensive!!

I ordered some a few weeks ago from an offer that's no longer available, but wanted to share about this one. Nope, I'm not gonna get anything from it if you order anything (although I do get $10 off my next order for blogging about it, just wanna keep it real here! So you can even ignore this if you want!).


You can sign up here through House Party to send your friends 10 free cards- just send the offer to 5 different friends, and you'll get a free shipping code. I received an email for the 10 free cards, and shared it to get 10 free cards PLUS free shipping codes!


Then I easily uploaded my pics from Bledsoe Photography (yes, I have an awesome photog who gives us the right to print her pics however we like!), and got to work making our card!


I have to say.....this was THE easiest photo making process I've experienced so far. Lots of other sites have been slower or more difficult to load and move pics around. This was a BREEZE!

Pretty sure I'll be using my $10 credit to order more of these....as long as it comes soon enough! :)

Coffee please!!

I have a serious addiction!

Ok yes, I have an addiction to making signs.....but I also have an addiction to coffee!! Why not combine those addictions! :)

This one I designed for a customer, who liked my french signs, but wanted it to be about coffee. I made her an opposite colored one, and used the negative of the stencil to make this one.

Another with similar wording, but a mug this time, if you aren't into the vintage graphic....

And a nod to my favorite drink of the season........

CRAFT FAIR NEWS!!!

I'll be selling signs this Saturday (Nov 5th) at Mount Juliet Christian Academy in Mt. Juliet, TN! I'm super excited about this huge event. This will be my second craft fair, and I'm glad one this huge isn't my first!! You can find out more about this event if you are local by visiting their facebook page.

ETSY NEWS!!
Yep, totally been slacking here! I haven't known what to post for sale and what to keep out for the craft fair I did last month and one this weekend, so there is nothing in it still!!

Honest, next week (or asap after this weekend!), it'll be loaded up!! I have lots of new ideas for stuff that I want to make that I feel has a little bit more of an "etsy" feel vs the craft fair feel! :)

Go ahead and check out my shop to favorite it, so you'll know when stuff is added!




And because I hate to leave a post without a pic......here's a sneak peek at the professional pics we had done this week (because I needed another crazy activity to add to my schedule!!). Picture by Shanell Bledsoe, my fave photog!!

My little girl LOVES being outside!!

Christmas Subway Art

Yesterday, I posted some fall subway art, and I figure since it's November 1st, it's ok to start with Christmas, right?? I mean we'll still be displaying our fall stuff *wink.* But dreaming of Christmas started about two months ago for me!!


While I only made one design for fall, I made several for Christmas!
