Cardigan love + Mommy Calling Cards

I know I am not the first to notice this adorable trend, but I thought I would show it off because I am totally in love with it!  I am thinking of pairing my little girl's flower girl dress with a cardigan as the October nights in New Mexico might be a little chilly :)  

I totally meant to post this yesterday but I had a lunch/Target date with a fellow mommy + babies.  It was so nice!  ALL 4 of our babies (she has 7 month old twins) behaved at lunch!!  Speaking of babies and mommies-  Here is a sneak peak of the mommy calling cards I have sent to the printer.  Ever been to a play date or at the park and meet a really cool mom??  Who {with babies/kids in tow} has time to fiddle around in the diaper looking for your iphone or a pen and paper???   I've been wanting to carry some of these cards around for ages :)  They would be perfect for letterpress. sigh...  I need a press!  I am open to a few other color choices.  What do you think?

Navy + Yellow

I was going to do navy and pink, but I just fell in love with how sunny and bright it looked with a little yellow :)  It makes me think of Summer.  I am so fortunate to get to enjoy Summer all year long :)


I designed some Mommy calling cards for my shop and I am trying to play around with some color inspiration.  I am doing pink and navy, but I want to offer two other color choices.  I love yellow and navy or perhaps lavender and grey.  I will be posting the digital proof later today :)  Happy Wednesday!  I need to get three orders sent out today so I will be a busy bee :)

Vintage Inspiration

I love the use of a vintage car in an engagement shoot or as a wedding get-away car!  I went for the standard stretch limo, but I regret it!  I would have loved one of these cars!!!  Plus, these make for some amazingly romantic shots of the love birds :) enjoy :)

Mint + Pink Wedding Inspiration

Happy Monday Morning!  I had a short, but great weekend with my mom visiting!!  We went to the pool Sunday after all the rain cleared out from Friday and Saturday and little bear did so good practicing her swimming :)  I believe these expensive swim lessons might actually pay off!!  Anyway, I am TOTALLY IN LOVE with today's soft hues.  I think it's the perfect way to start a Monday.  Be inspired :)

Happy Friday!

Thank goodness for Friday!  I am really enjoying my mother being here and my husband on his way home!  I love my mommy's cooking and the way she just starts organizing my life right away!  My house is clean.  Which is HUGE.  I would like to pretend that I am a stepford wife but I'm not!  There is usually a nice layer of goldfish, cheerios, turkey dogs, sticky juice, etc., on my floor in the kitchen and play room.  It's lovely.  I love a clean house, so thank you momma for coming all the way from Oklahoma to clean for me and love on your grand-babies :)


Enjoy your weekend :)

Pretty in Pink

I stumbled upon the blog Green Wedding Shoes and fell in love with all of her inspiration.  Of course, I had to share this because I love pink.  Check out the rest of the images here.  Enjoy your Thursday!  My hubby gets home this weekend from traveling and my life just might start feeling normal again!  Taking care of a 1 and a 2 year old by myself has made me want to pull my hair out this week!!!  But.. I love them.

Flower Girl Inspiration for an Autumn Wedding

I was hunting for a trendy but fancy dress for my daughter who is the flower girl in my best friend's wedding in October.  The bride's colors are pink and grey (which I love) and This dress is perfect.  J. Crew always has the most amazing dresses for little girls.  I will be pairing it with pearls and ballet flats and something pretty with lace for her hair.  I am very excited to put this outfit together :)
