Love Citron

Made my day! The blog Love Citron featured an invitation of my from my etsy shop! Sweat Azalea Boutique

Its harvest time

My husband and I spent a few days preserving all of the goods from our garden this year, this is what we had left after making multiple huge batches of salsa (which we ate all of) Needless to day our garden was pretty plentiful this year!



And here are some shots of the process of making jalapeno jam


Invitation party

My friend is getting married on New Years Eve of this year and I got to design her wedding invitations, we did a custom emboss and added some rhinestones. So to get the job done we gathered some friends and wine and had a little "invitation making party"





HOW feature!

Very flattered to have my work featured in this issue of HOW: Behind the design!

Halloween fun

Just picked up this adorable little kit from Target that my good friend Devon Adrian designed. They were super cute and my husband and I had a lot of fun making them, taste good too!





Damn this is cool

Nicole Meyer is creating a logo a day for each Minnesota lake. I LOVE IT. I am jealous of this amazing idea and I am so excited to see more! Here are a few, and you can see them all on http://www.branding10000lakes.com/




Supermodel!

My little lady is a supermodel! I am such a proud dog mom, Riley is featured on the Adult lean diet for Blackwood dog food. And here are some other photos from her photo shoot at Modern life photo in Minnesota.







Beautiful wedding invitations

I just got these beautiful wedding invitations in the mail from my friend Michelle Hyster! I think she did an amazing job and I am in love with them and all the detail and wood that went into them! Michelle also has an etsy shop called oodles of color which is ridiculously cute too!
