I have another finished project to share! Alexandria from Petals and Freckles is a super sweet soon-to-be-mom, blogger, and tea drinker – and she wanted her blog to have a fresh look in time for the birth of her son.

I really love what we came up with – I think we succeeded in really showcasing her beautiful art while letting who she is shine through. Check it out at ww.embellishpaper.com, and be sure to give her a like on Facebook!

Sometimes we need a little inspiration to get us going again – so here’s a small dose of what’s been inspiring me lately. I’m loving all the stunning typography + golden light + deep black & whites + watercolors that I’ve been seeing all over Pinterest.
