Minted: 'Oh What Fun' Holiday Card Challenge

Yes, Christmas is a still a couple months away, but this is usually the time of year I start designing for the holidays. It might be sweltering outside, but I am dreaming of a White Christmas.

Below are my recent submissions for Minted's 'Oh What Fun' Holiday Card Challenge: Peaceful Type, The Jolly Type, The Merry Type, The Joyful Type, and In Time for Christmas. Voting is now open until midnight on June 24th. If you vote for 50+ designs before the deadline, Minted will send you a promotional code for 15% off your order.

Minted Special Prize Winner

I am excited to announce that my photograph "Glacier National Park" was chosen by Minted to receive the Vintage Award for their On the Wall Art Challenge.  I took this photograph while hiking the Grinnell Glacier Trail in Glacier National Park with my husband and dad a couple of years ago, and I am thrilled that it will be available for sale on Minted soon. 

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day!  I've been itching to share this inspiration shoot that included by Minima wedding suite for over a year (Last year I was still kicking the tires and coding the blog design). But now that it is Valentine's Day, I thought it the perfect time.

The images were taken by the ridiculously talented Lauren Kinsey with gorgeous styling by Shelby Peaden Events and spectacular flowers by Myrtie Blue. The shoot was featured on Wedding Chicks, and you can see more images by visiting the gallery.  Below are a couple of my favorite photos:

Minted Special Prize Winner

Designing wedding invitations is one of favorite things to do. So I was head over heels when I heard the news that my design, "Come Fly with Us," was chosen by Minted to receive the Shape Award for the design that uses one of their die-cut shapes. Yippie! The design is now available to purchase on Minted as a wedding invitation or Save the Date.  Check it out -- especially if you are planning a destination wedding!
