Gift Tags are here!

I love having a cute gift tag to dress up gifts. Here are some that I have just listed in my etsy shop.

New product: photo cards

I love photos. It is so fun to get a personal note in the mail with a photo included. I have been designing some new cards to incorporate this idea. They will be 5x7 flat cards to mount a photo to. I am designing thank yous, baby announcements, christmas cards, save the date, and invitations. Here is a sample of one I am currently working on. I would love to hear your thoughts!

Christmas in July

Not sure where the term "Christmas in July" comes from but, I'll go with it. As this is the last day of July, I will do one more Christmas post before moving on to another theme.

I will share my favorite new design. This is one I am really excited about. I just completed it and will be sending it to the printer soon to get ready for Christmas. The great thing about this one is that it looks like I made it in elementary school shop class, a little girl's drawing burned into the wood. I love the idea that everyone in the forest can be friends. Nature is just so amazing. Can't we all just get along? Well, here in this card anyway, the forest is a friendly place. This is for all of you that want to send a warm, friendly, holiday hello from the fawn and friends.

Vote for your favorite Christmas holiday icon.

The voting for your Christmas favorites will continue until August 6th.
I know, I know, it is hard to think about Christmas while it is hot outside. Well, to in order to design Christmas cards in the middle of summer, here's what I do: close the blinds, grab a cup of warm coffee, and turn on some Bing Crosby and dream of a White Christmas. Can you get yourself to go there?

Your feedback will help me determine what kind of holiday card to design next. Thanks for voting!

Introducing........Christmas Owl

Continuing with the Christmas theme........

I will share an upcoming design for the Christmas season.


You may have seen this owl dressed in summer colors in my etsy shop but this funky owl is getting all dressed up in his Christmas colors. A hip way of sending a festive greeting. Coming soon to my etsy shop. Feel free to contact me to order your cards early.

Christmas is coming.....

Ok, so it is still a few months away.

I have been thinking about Christmas designs all year long, so in my mind, it is close.

I will have a bunch of new designs for Christmas this year. Here is one of my new designs. Aren't reindeer great?

The hip birds are back!

To start things off, I would like to share with you the card that started it all. My "hip bird" cards. I wanted a card for Christmas that was hip, funky, and fun, that also incorporated my love of trees, birds, and nature. Thus, the little red bird cards were created.

These were so popular last year, I sold out of them! I am glad to have the little red bird back with us again.
