I loved this “gratitude” post on Meri Cherry.

If you’ve never been to this site, take a moment to poke around a bit. It’s full of absolutely terrific crafts to do with your kids. For this craft, it was almost impossible not to create something lovely. We ended up with such a gorgeous collection of little cards – our big dilemma now is whether to frame them or pair them with pretty envelopes and give them as gifts!

Is it just us, or have coloring books gotten much cooler lately? Check this one out, THE MINDFULNESS COLORING BOOK. It’s designed to reduce stress for busy adults. Who knew?

Classic San Francisco

IN THE STUDIO

Gretchen and Spencer were planning a beautifully classic wedding day in San Francisco, complete with a trolley ride for their guests and a ceremony in the iconic and stunning Grace Cathedral. We designed a graceful and whimsical monogram for the centerpiece of their invitation and added in an iconic trolley illustration for their transportation card. The color combination of a bold purple and a rich, dark gray helped strike just the right balance between the traditional, the iconic, and the fun.
