delightful dwellings!

I've been working on a new house illustration to turn into a pattern, print, card...? I'm not sure yet, but I've found some happy little houses that have inspired the whole thing!

Valentine's Day Card

Hello there!

I've just posted a printable Valentine's Day card in my etsy shop featuring this little cutie! Perfect for kids or just about anyone!

I'm just loving these beautiful cards by A Little Hut—designs by Patricia Zapata! They are so simple and lovely. I love her exploration with projects and how she talks about her process on her blog. Check it out!



P.S. I won't be posting again until Monday because me and the hubby are going on a short weekend trip to Virginia. Happy 4th of July (everyone in the US that is) ; )

Letterpress goodies

I found some letterpress cards on etsy today that I thought were fun and beautifully printed. They are handcrafted by a husband and wife team who run the letterpress delicacies shop. I especially liked these 3:

Today I have a few letterpress goodies to show you that I found on etsy. Happy Friday everyone!

New items in the shop

I was able to finish putting everything that I made last weekend up in my shop yesterday. You can see on the back of the square gift tags and leaf stationery the fabric that I was talking about the other day. The colors of ink I had mixed reminded me of these fabrics that I had packed away, and when I pulled them out, they were a great match! I had to put the fabric on the back, so cute and fun!

Pinecone+Chickadee

Came across some great little cards from pinecone+chickadee this weekend. They are a husband and wife team in Maine and make journals, cards, tote bags and more! I especially like these 2:

love birds card and blue owl card

I love the graphic quality and simplicity! They also do some inspiring graphic design work.

Busy Bee

Today I have been scurrying around the house cleaning and decluttering. Not only do I have the Spring cleaning bug, but we are also trying to sell our house and people are coming to look at it tonight! It's amazing how many little things you let slide when you live in your house.

I'm off to clean out yet another closet. I'll leave you all with a sneak peak of a new card I have been working on.
