I'm trying to work today on work stuff/computer stuff/personal photos since I haven't done anything proactive in this sense all week long. While doing so I just ran into my Christmas card and realized with being so busy, I never published it on my blog. So here it is, only 1 month late, and better late than never at all . . .
Merry Christmas from our house to yours! :c)
I thought this might be a good time to tell a little bit about my other creative outlets in case you . . . or anyone you might know . . . would be interested. I've started creating blog headers . . . and love it. I only really know Blogger and Type Pad, so I can only do designs right now for both of these. But if you'd like to see a few glimpses of what I can do, take a look at my current header here at Purple Valley, and also at VWC Photography and at Ramblings from Life. I'd love to design YOU one!
I also have taken up designing birth announcements, Christmas cards, you name it. I love creating . . . everything! Here is a look at some of my creations.
I also have created some composites with the photography work I do (most of it my on-location work). I think my favorite graphic design work consists in creating these. I love seeing parents smile. They never know what they are going to get, and it's always a pleasant surprise.
I have also designed ads and business cards. This is the only one I have on my laptop right now, which was done for a doula. I'm in the process of designing a new website for myself with a new logo, header, business cards, etc. Also working on new business cards from my friend, Alexis, who I linked above over at Ramblings from Life. She, too, is a work from home mamma! We can't be successful without supporting one another. :)
My mother-in-law asked me to design her Christmas cards this year, so I finally got those done tonight. While going through my pictures to find ones to use for the cards, I ran across this one of Maia and her cousin, Ella, from this past summer. Isn't it the most adorable picture ever?! Ok, so I'm a little biased, but I do think it's awfully darn cute! 
Speaking of Christmas cards. I love Alexis. She surprised me today with a plug for my Christmas cards (and for my work!). It made my day seeing my card on her blog and especially with the sweet things she said. Thanks, darlin'.
Ok, so here is my card. If you regularly read my blog, that probably means you love me and I love you, right?! So if you haven't already received a card, plan to see one in your mailbox soon! Merry Christmas!!
