daddy’s little girl

i was helping my niece with her homework last night and it reminded me of when my dad use to help me with mine when i was growing up.  and that got me reminiscing…

funny how i talk about paying attention to details so much on my blog.  and i realize, that is definitely one of the MANY things i learned from my dad, which has helped me a great deal with my business.  along with being neat and well organized, teaching me the importance of getting things done IMMEDIATELY rather than procrastinating, showing me how to use a ruler and an exacto knife before i knew that those two tools would be a staple in my future career.

thanks dad, for always being right there when i need you and giving me the right tools to soar!

this is another funny photobooth shot that my dad got in on with my sister, my mom and i. well at first he had no idea it was going to take a series of 4 shots so that’s why he’s just standing in the background on the middle two. ha!

it’s my dad’s birthday month, so i thought i’d start celebrating him early with this blog post.  🙂

playstation halloween bash

i posted a sneak peek of some spook-tacular buffet tags and plate liner designs the other day that i worked on for Chlo+E.  well, here is how their dessert table spread for the EBMRF & Sony PlayStation Epic Halloween Bash, hosted by courtney cox and james marsden, turned out.  nothing short of fabulous, of course!

i think the little details they included in this table spread is what makes it so amazing.

cake pops shaped like mummys… are you kidding me?!?!?  sooooo freakin’ CUTE!

i love how black & white stripes are so simple, yet they make such a bold design statement.

easy like sunday morning

after unintentionally falling asleep super early last night, i woke up this morning with the urge to make a yummy breakfast with jill scott collaborations playing in the background.  it’s definitely one of my favorite albums.  a good mix of songs to groove to and play from beginning to end on any given day, especially on a easy sunday morning like today.

my music inspired menu this morning turned out to be whole wheat french toast with fresh strawberries and veggie patties on the side.  i had the coffee but was definitely missing the mimosa.  maybe next sunday…

32 cent postage stamps

remember when stamps were 32 cents???

i was digging through my sticker stash recently and i found these…

i must have saved one of each stamp design that i thought was special back then.
