this past weekend something really beautiful happened.  Lily & Mark got married and it was an incredibly joyous occasion.  I really don't think words can express how big a blessing it was to see these two wed.  here are their invitations that I had the BEST time designing (as well as a really lovely photo of the beauuutiful bride from one of her 2 wonderful MOH's, Sarah--hi Sarah!).


how radiant is Lily?!  so much joy.  (photo by Sarah Pugliese)


I love how they love HP--Lily & dear friend/MOH Amy put a LOT of heart into these amazing envelopes!
plus, she & her sweet groom glittered those delightful little shields.


Lily & Mark, you mean so very much to us.  the biggest congratulations to you &
thank you SO much for letting me be a part of your wedding with paper goods!

leigh & ben: invitations.


This couple is made up of two individuals with the most delightful and radiant smiles.  You can tell just by looking at a photo of them that they exude so much joy.  Have a look yourself at their incredible wedding photos taken by three nails photography (sample below.....if that doesn't entice you to look I'm not sure what would!).

Leigh & her sweet momma were a delight to work with.  They also gave me the opportunity to see my work in letterpress form!!!  Eee!  We worked with Evanston Print & Paper and they were wonderful (hoping to do it again soon ;D).

congrats L & B!!  so much love to you and excitement for you.

katy's anniversary gift.

This commissioned project was a dream.  

Katy (miraculously) found my blog and emailed me about a custom project/gift for her husband for their anniversary.  Let me just tell you that when someone finds me and contacts me with excitement (simply because they like what I do & create!) about the possibility of working together, I get all googly-eyed & giddy.  This is still young and new enough that I have a feeling I'll be feeling that way for, well, let's just say a long time.

can you guess what 'their song' is?

lily & mark: save the date.


first: let me tell you that Lily & Mark are absolutely amazing.  These two have such a fun outlook on life and love & enjoy many things that I, too, love & enjoy.

second: let me tell you that this save-the-date was WAY too much fun to create!  I mean seriously, just look at it!  It's a list full of the things that they love, and it makes me smile.  We're a workin' on their invites now & I am really excited...

third: let me tell you that.....TODAY IS LILY'S BIRTHDAY!  happy happy happy birthday lily may.  LOTS of love :)

b&c + an easter invitation.

let's kick off the week with some photos of new(ish) work!  I'm gonna share lots this week.  Woo!  

this was Beth & Cameron's day-of program.  it's a super fun story-telling style & 
the fact that Bethany is one of the funniest people I know, made it a delight to create.


this is an easter invitation I created for the Line's easter sunday service.

keep checking back, more exciting work to come this week!!

home, finally.

Well, I think it's safe to say we're settled in in our new place.  My office still needs some work (mainly, some new/different storage & organization units) but it feels so good to finally feel at home.  Here's a peek into our wonderfully sunny space:












ps......photos of new work coming soon!  :)

OH!  & I have another design submitted into a minted competition....VOTE HERE!  thank you!

time & motion.

Wowza.  It has been a looooong time since I've posted!  Record time maybe?  Well, a lot has been happening on my end.  Good things!  

Remember that minted competition I was asking for votes for?  All three designs were chosen by the editors to sell!  So, now they just have to be purchased ;)  Check them out here:


Also, homeseed (& co...meaning, our family!) has a new home!  This will be my new office and I can't wait to get settled into it!


Also, I made a new batch of baby's first year calendars and I have almost sold out.....it's kind of unbelievable and really awesome!  The buyers have been such lovely folks to communicate with too. Feeling very blessed :)

Hope your summer has been lovely so far.
