This week was full of activity. I spent most of it at my parent’s house with my husband traveling for work or recording our church band’s first CD. But I got a lot of stuff done — mainly typical graphic design goods {logos, ads, etc.} instead of paper goods. But there is some good stuff coming around in that sphere. I can’t wait to share it all with you! But what did happen this week – I released more cards into the Red Autumn Collection. Make sure to check them out either on or on my previous blog post. And yesterday I drove my family to the airport and watched them disappear to California. Steve and Anna are getting married tomorrow and they’re going! And I’ll be attending a wedding myself too — where my neat-o friend Kae Zherebnenko is doing the styling. Early congrats to Marina and Dima Molla! What are you doing this weekend?

What inspired me this week? Ooh, lots of goodies:

These calendars are just too lovely to not crave.

The Ruche fall lookbook preview? I can’t wait to see the whole thing! I loved the previous one.

I loved Green Wedding Shoes‘ post: Hitched Recap!. Full of so-o-o many good inspirational photos.

I adore these stamps from Paperwink.

Grays and pastels and blooms all combined into one get me all giddy. I love these finds from  Anthropologie. They are pushing me to create a set of frilly pastel-toned cards. Anybody interested in such a theme? Well, even if no one is, I will make such a collection for my own enjoyment. Hmmm…ideas, ideas.

And I absolutely fell in love with these vases! Also from Anthropologie.

Also, I’m super-ly excited to start following a new blog: Mr. & Mrs. Globe Trot. To be written by Julia and Yuriy Manchik, a wedded couple only since last Saturday. Why the excitement? Julia and Yuriy have embarked on a six-month honeymoon. They plan to travel Europe without me! Check out the blog for more details.
