mmmm.

found this great christopher bettig poster on poppytalk a few days ago and can't stop opening it up from my inspiration folder to take a peek at it. i guess i keep wishing for it to suddenly appear on my wall, but unfortunately it's sold out! the drawing is so sweet... and of course, i am digging the type at the bottom as well. i think it completes it... (sigh) and (as if that wasn't enough)- it's green. can you say made for me?

happy st. paddy's day!

thought my blog could use a little green today! this pretty little print is from OhSmile. man, that would look good in my kitchen or anywhere in my house really...

well friends, 'wedding season' has officially started! i am receiving quite a few orders for guestbooks... so if you need one anytime soon let me know now! you can always view past books at my other blog here. i should have a few new ones to post photos of soon. and there are some interesting, but beautiful, color schemes in some of my upcoming books... so exciting! i love it when i get to play around with color and design a little more than the usual :)

off to italy

jo is getting married on 08.08.2008 in italy. since she's having a rather large (peacock themed) wedding, she needed two books instead of just one. her books are a little larger than normal to accommodate larger photos on the inside...

i used a shimmery gold paper for the front panel... i love it because it changes colors depending on what light it's in.

i know i've been a little behind on posting book photos lately... i promise i'll try to catch up before we head off to dallas on thursday!

pretty in pink

i used to hate pink. really hate it. there i said it! but this book has made me found a new appreciation for the color. paired with some lovely greens, pink can be very beautiful, but not overly feminine. and while i won't be out buying everything pink i can get my hands on... i will certainly be more open to it now thanks to orla :)

going green

i seem to be getting to know a lot of kat-y/ies here lately! this katy is getting married in august and chose some very fun paper for her cover. hope she has a happy wedding!
