We wish you a...

M e r r y  C h r i s t m a s!

Sincerely, 
Two crazy love birds

Maddie & McKinley

These two little sweeties just turned two. They are best of friends, yet so uniquely different in their personalities. They are like nieces to us, so I wanted to make something special that would remind them just how precious they are when mommy and daddy read it to them.  It was fun to try to capture even an ounce of their cuteness!

These descriptions are straight from God's Word. He loves us so much and tenderly delights in His children. I need to be reminded of this.




Putting them in vintage frames was the cherry on top!



Love these girls and love their families~

Calendar: October

We're a week in, but here I am! We have a new toy at our house that we have been setting up (Ok, *hubs has been doing all the setup...) And now I'm chiming in from our new iMac :) Grateful to the power of 100 that we are able to have this new creative tool!

Wishing you a happy month of October, filled with pumpkin spice and yellow, orange, and red leaves, even if they land in your yard.

This month's SK calendar is a little on the dramatic side but you're okay with that, right?

calendar: september

As soon as September hits, I have this expectation for cooler weather and celebratory fall colors to starting showing up. Maybe it's the ber at the end of the month's name [har har]

That's funny because it's 100 today :)
Happy September to you!

Speaking of color, we will be doing some leaf-peeping in New England at the end of this month. Cant wait to see some beautiful colorful countryside.

What are you looking forward to in September?

I'm going with a 'better late than never' philosophy this month. Sorry, dear loyal calendar enjoyers.

Baby Shower Invitation: Zigzag Mobile

We showered a sweet friend and her on-the-way baby boy Jude.

Two things I wanted to incorporate into the invitation's design:
 - the meaning of his handsome name and
 - the cool colors and zigzags from the fabric in his nursery.

I thought a mobile was playful and cute but still boyish. And I wrapped little paper bands to personalize them instead of using envelopes for the ones that were hand delivered.

Here's the final look:

Calendar: July

We're all about geometric and patriotic this month.
