Stop for a Holiday Shop

Happy belated Thanksgiving Americans, and happy belated Thursday to everyone else out there. Just a quick post tonight: here is a flyer I did for Mandy with Mandy Organizes. She has a new shopping event coming up and needed some flyers to help promote. She gave me the text last week, and I thought I would come up with something fun that focused around her purple and green theme. If you are looking for a way to get some of your holiday shopping done early, then be sure to contact Mandy or check out the information for the event.

New Prints for an Old Client

It has been so long since I have posted something! I have been super busy with projects that will be posted later, but I have to wait until the holidays pass before I can share most of them. :) I have also been working on a new website! I cannot wait to share it; I have been putting a lot of work into it, but really want to make sure it's presentable before I post that too. I am teaching myself (with some help!) to webdesign and am loving the challenge. A good friend of mine is helping me, and if you would like him to build a site for you, feel free to visit his website.

So here is something to tide you over: Claudia has been a long-time family friend, a previous employer, and a mentor. After leaving her marketing company, I continued to design small projects for her. This is something from awhile ago, but she needed them reprinted for an upcoming conference. I haven't had time to take photos during the daylight I have on the weekends, so indoors will have to do.  With the uv-coating we added to Claudia's flyers, the gloss is highly reflective and adds some shine to the photos. Enjoy this post, hopefully my next one will be related to my new website!

Sheesh, I have been down to one post a week recently! Been so busy, and I can't believe it's already November. Seems like yesterday 2011 started, and now here we are in holiday mode again, which seems to come earlier and earlier every year.

Speaking of the holidays...we shot our photos for our Christmas cards yesterday. I am SO excited, and can't wait to send them out!! I really want to post some photos, but Jon would kill me. This year there is apparently going to be a Woolley Christmas Card Off with the brother and sister in law, so we have to keep ours under lock and key. Dave and Car, you better bring it!!

Anyways, just a quick one tonight. I was watching one of Jon's games a week or so ago and this little mole-rat-mouse-groundhog-thing appeared and sat still long enough for me to snap some pictures. It was either blind or had an affinity for the lens. More to come, I promise. Working on lots of things. Off to paint and bake some thank you cookies for our photographers!!

 

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Last year Jon and I thought we would start a tradition of family Christmas cards. It was Jon's idea to wrap ourselves up in wrapping paper, so I took some photos of us in front of the Christmas tree. And the following was the result of the 2010 Woolley Family Christmas Card. The only problem with last year's card was that we set the bar really high for creative cards in the future... We have our idea for 2011, and I'm hoping we can outdo ourselves. If you would like to start your own tradition, and have a personal family holiday card designed, I would love to help!
