Holiday Cheer | Free Printable Gift Tags

Hello friends & happy Thanksgiving week!  Before we blink it will be December.  Have you started your holiday shopping yet?  Now that I work near Union Square in San Francisco, I can tell it's going to be a dangerous season for my wallet.  The shiny objects are already beckoning me from their gorgeous window displays.

To enhance your gift-giving enjoyment this year, I've teamed up with The Tomkat Studio to design some fun & cheerful printable gift tags.  These tags are being featured with other great ideas in their 2012 Holiday Gift Guide.... it's a must read!  They've got options for everyone that will definitely inspire your shopping.

These tags will look their best printed on white letter-sized card stock.  Just download, print, cut and enjoy.... here's to a merry happy holiday season.

Happy Halloween | Black + Pink Skeleton Chic

I never got around to posting pictures of my Halloween projects this year, but I've been excited about sharing this party for weeks.  Michele of Cakewalk Baking hosted this adorably chic skeleton party for her son Graham's 7th birthday.  It was originally a traditional orange & black color palette, but it was Graham who suggested a pop of pink instead... what an awesome kid.  I helped out by designing the invite & CD favors, but Michele herself did all the rest.  She even made seven kinds of cupcakes to celebrate... yes, that's right seven! And each one better than the last.

 Enjoy the party pics and be sure to visit Cakewalk Baking for all the details.  Happy Halloween!
