It's Moving Day + FREE DOWNLOAD

After this post, I will no longer using blogger for my blog. I'm moving over to WordPress. I've tried to figure out how to have this blog forward, but it's waaaaaay over my head. So, if you would be kind enough to change me in your Google Reader or bookmark my new site or visit my new site and sign up to follow I would greatly appreciate it. (I couldn't figure out how to transfer all you kind people who follow this blog to the new blog. Sorry about that.)

I want to give a BIG shout out to Brooke Hall who is working with me to get the new site up and going. I could not have done it without her! If you're ever in need of someone who knows design + all the web tech-y stuff and who emails you right back and is a pleasure to work with, then Brooke is the web guru for you. Thanks Brooke! She also has a delightful blog.

Design Greatness = Eye Candy

A couple months ago I bought a copy of Design for Mankind's digital magazine. Inside was a link to the website graphic-exchange. There is nothing on this site but design greatness. Eye candy indeed. Go take a look.

Check out these lovelies!

These beauties arrived in my mailbox today. I haven't stopped smiling since.

A darling apple tote/shopping bag that is sturdy and roomy. The tree is stitched and the apples are cut out of fabric, then stitched on. Too cute!

A snappy oven mitt made from two coordinating fabrics. There is something crinkly and magical in between the layers so hands stay nice and safe.

An ironing board cover. Mine is not in this fabric, but in the floral fabric of the oven mitt. But, I like this one too!

Jamie and her mom, Carmen, of City Chic Country Mouse create the most charming items that make your domestic tasks a much prettier experience. They offer all these goodies and more (some dang cute half aprons) in their etsy shop. And if you are the sewing type, visit Jamie's blog and see her tutorial on making napkin rings right here.

I'm still smiling. Thanks Jamie and Carmen!

A Mention on a Beautiful Blog

Last Friday Whisker Graphics got a mention from Wanwisa on her beautiful blog, Modern Vintage. Her site was a new discovery for me and now I have it safely bookmarked so I can visit often. I got blissfully lost in visiting all her posts! She featured some of my PDF template designs. (After seeing my product photos compared to other photos on her site, it is glaringly apparent that I really must get better at taking photos. I'm trying, really I am.) Go take a look here.
Thanks Wanwisa!

A New Blog I'm Groov'n On

I received a nice etsy convo on April Fool's Day. It was no joke or trick, but a note to let me know that two of my stationery designs were featured on the sender's blog. Of course, I had to immediately go take a look. (You can too right here.) What a treat I discovered! A new blog to groove on and the talented Marta is having a give-away right now for one of her mini diaries. Go on, go enter. It ends Sunday night, so hurry.
