Thanks for wandering over....

I'm glad you're here! This place is pretty darn fun. There are tips and tricks, stories and articles, and the occasional funny cat photo.

Even though cute kitties are awesome (duh), what's even better is that every once in a while, I plan on hosting a give-away for my shop! Yep, FREE STUFF! Something to do with my Etsy site, coupons, or something really cool that I feel like passing on. So stop by every once in a while, see what's going on, post a comment, let me know how your day is going, why your little brother annoyed you today... whatever you feel like. I hope to make this a fun place to be, read jokes, look at funny pictures, whatever makes you smile. :) So please do follow the blog!

Beach Beautiful

I honestly don't remember the date of my last blog post. I suppose I could just look at the date on my blog, but let's face it; I'm lazy. Anyways, with the oncoming fall weather (it was in the lower 60s today, what?!), I wanted to give my final goodbyes to summer with a new design inspired by summer itself! I guess I'm still in the beach mindset since I just got back from a cruise to the Bahamas...

Freeport,  Bahamas

I'll be working on a design to go with this theme. Palm trees, waves, hibiscus flowers... So soon, I'll be creating a new design for all those couples who will be having their wedding on the beach! So a few questions for you:

Did you/are you planning a beach wedding? Did it go as planned?

Suggestions for a name for a beach wedding design?

Thanks for your comments! :)

Spring is in the air...


Ah.... the birds are chirping, the snow is melting, the rivers are flooding and the tornado sirens are sounding... we must be close to spring! And soon the flowers will be blooming and love will be in the air. So what better time to create something to go along with it?

As the proud owner of my own Etsy shop, my mind's creative wheels are constantly turning, thinking of new designs for my wedding invitations and whatnot. With the coming of spring, with love in the air, it was only fitting that my newest design idea envelop all of that. So here's a sneak peak of my newest design...Flowerchild! See it here first...

Flowerchild Thank You Card

So there we are! Hopefully, Flowerchild will be available to purchase within the next couple weeks. And who knows... maybe I'll get caught up in spring fever myself and be in a good enough mood for some special spring savings? We shall see :)

When you think of spring, what comes to mind? Vacation? Post your answers here!

Valentine's Day Video - the Wedding Planner


Ah, one of my favorite chick flicks... The Wedding Planner. Not only is it funny AND has Matthew McConaughey in it, but it creepily resembles my career as a graphic designer who specializes in weddings. I'm just hoping I'm not going to be like JLo, planning weddings for everyone but herself.... that part was just depressing. But other than that, hilarious movie!

This part of the movie got me to thinking about how you meet "the One." How do you know? Does the meeting have to be something this dramatic for it to be "love at first sight?" Tell me how you met your husband, wife or fiancee and receive 20% off wedding items from my Etsy shop now through Valentine's Day, February 14th. Hurry...there are only 5 DAYS LEFT!!! Just click the My Etsy tab at the top of the page or go to http://www.etsy.com/shop/DesignWithWings to choose what you'd like.

And now that you know when Valentine's Day is, you have no excuse for forgetting to get your lady flowers. Sorry guys :)
