Under the Christmas tree

I love this time of year so much. The fact that there's a new little one in our family to share in the joy just makes it all the sweeter. I know he won't understand much this year, but the thought of the years to come, the excitement, the laughter, the discovery, the wonder, makes me anxious to see this little boy grow...

...but not too fast. I like that he can still fit under our Christmas tree.

Canvas Print Giveaway!

Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and are finding some great deals today! I have another great deal for you, and the best part...it's FREE!

 Check out my canvas print from Printcopia:

I can't tell you how excited I was to open my package and see this cutie staring back at me! I have to admit that I was bit nervous after ordering my print because I chose to have the edges wrapped in black as opposed to having the picture stretched around the frame. I did this because August's head would have been cropped awkwardly otherwise. I wasn't sure how the edges would look, but I couldn't be happier with the outcome.

The overall quality of the print is amazing. The image is crisp and clear and the color is exactly what I ordered. The wrapped canvas is finished beautifully and the frame feels sturdy, and best of all, the process to order the print is super simple.

Do you want to get a canvas print of your own? 

Today, Printcopia is offering an 8x10" canvas print to one lucky reader! To enter this giveaway, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post. The winner will be chosen next Friday, so make sure you comment by then!

 If you can't wait until then, you can checkout the canvas prints at Printcopia to get one of your own. If you have more time, you can check out their sister sites as well if you're in need of car magnets, vinyl banners, or lawn signs.

**This contest is only open to those in the continental U.S.**

PS Check back tomorrow for an awesome Black Friday giveaway! 

Guess what I attempted yesterday...

It's not easy getting a sleepy baby, an active six year old, and a mortified [of the whole situation] tween to cooperate for Christmas pictures. But it's done, I have 400 pictures, and hopefully one good one for our Christmas card. If not, I can always use one of these...

I have no idea why Audrie was mortified. Seriously.

Hello, Monday!

I have some big things coming up this week including a couple of giveaways and some crafts! [I know, I know. I keep promising crafts, and I don't post any, but I really have some good ones. Hopefully, with family in town this week, I can get some help with the little Mr. and we can knock out a few.]

The Seed

Last summer I had the opportunity to illustrate a beautiful poem written by Jason Whitney. The story tells of a seed's journey to reach maturity and its true purpose in life. It was a wonderful experience, and I'm so excited to have the finished product in my hand... just in time for Christmas!  

Here are a few pictures from the book:

Though I worked with a publisher, the book was self-published by the author, so at this time the book is only available through him or me. 

Contact me if you would like to know more about it or would like a copy.
