Handmade Graduation Gift...

Hello, and Happy Wednesday!! Half way to the weekend already! (Except for me lol because yesterday was the last day of my 5 day vacation from work, and it was very much needed/enjoyed!), so I only have three work days left this week and then I get to enjoy a family graduation party on Saturday and attend my little brothers' baseball games. Yayy!!!

So I'm back to share with you all, those custom stationery note cards I was talking about in my last post. I was on Etsy for some inspiration for graduation presents for my friends, who have recently graduated from college, and I saw that stationery was a highly recommended gift. Being that I have a liking for creating paper goods, I thought, "Oh my gosh, I could totally make custom stationery for my friends' gifts!" And hence, the stationery note cards I've created below. I'm in love with chevron, so I decided to use that in my design and to add the unique, personalized element, I placed a monogramed design at the center front of the note card. I'm super, super pleased with the design, and I am definitely considering adding these babies to my Etsy Shop!

Graduations, Family, Friends & Stationery...

Hi all! June is finally here and the first week is practically over already! It's crazy how fast the days seem to be going lately. I have a couple graduation parties to attend this month and I'm rather excited about it. I really love when my family all gets together and can enjoy each other's company. My youngest sister is graduating 8th grade and will be starting high school this fall!! I'm still in disbelief, as it was only a mere 4 years ago that I was in high school!! It's mind boggling! I know she going to do fantastically well, like I did and have a really great four years.

I'm working on lots of design stuff for some friends and fellow bloggers, so this is a turning out to be a busy month for me, and I'm happy about that! I love to design/create, and being able to share what I make with others is a truly wonderful feeling.

For my youngest sister's graduation party, I'm in the process of designing her invites. Hopefully, I'll be able to come up with something she agrees with and loves. We've been through several different designs/themes already and so far she hasn't fell in love with any thing. I mean she's only fourteen, so she changes her mind depending on the day of the week lol I have faith will come up with something soon, as long as she stops changed her idea in mind lol

I'm also currently obsessed with stationery, so I've been putting some designs together to send out to some lovely blogger friends... Maybe we'll start pen-paling! That'd be loads of fun! I haven't had a pen pal since the third grade lol I miss writing snail mail to others, it's such a truly fun and unfortunately forgotten form of communicating.

Also, my friend recently graduated from college and so I thought a great, unique gift would be a simple stationery set for her to write little letters/notes to her friends and family, just in case her career path leads her far away from home. So I decided to design a simple monogram theme for her and I'm going to gift them to her at her party. Fingers- crossed she loves them!

I'll post pictures later on so you can all see what I've been working on...

Happy June Everyone!!

Here's to another stellar month!
