Original

My fix!
This week I used some actions from Eye Candy Actions. First thing I did was run Clarify. Then ran Light Switch to brighten things up a bit. I then ran Zap to pop the colors and adjusted the layers to taste. I then did a levels adjustment to correct some of the white coloring. Sharpened for web. Done!
Found this new boutique thanks to my friend Michele! I’m in LOVE! These little girl shoes are wonderful. And there are only one more pair of those T-strap womens shoes… I’m debating…
Photoshop 24/7
Aug. 14, 2010
You would only understand the hilarity of this if you spend all day working in photoshop like myself, designers, photographers…
Now you can have Photoshop with you 24/7! How niiiiiicceeeee….
You can get your own here.
Remember this quilt I was working on? Yeah… it was started alright! And hasn’t been touched since. In fact, I’m not even sure where it may be at the moment since our move! I have ALL these things I want to do, but I just have no time for them at all! I want to paint my daughters room, sew a matching quilt, hang some things on the walls… the list goes on and on. I haven’t done not 1 thing on my want list in quite some time. I’ve been so busy with work that I haven’t just stopped to actually do something for myself. I suppose I’m a work-a-holic. No denying it. I plan to do something very soon for me. Sound good? Thought so!
I’m starting to consider just buying a quilt that is already made though since they take so much time, and I’m really not sure on the whole batting process. Have never done that before. When I saw this one above from Urban Outfitters, I definitely want to just buy one! It’s gorgeous and would match the color I want to paint on the walls perfectly! Wishing…
live enviably.

I’ve got several things to feature here today! This site is just too cool to not feature all of it! This website carries some really cool “green” products. From jewelry to bags to use at the grocery store.
And they have some super cool DIY tutorials on their blog. Like this tutorial above on how to make your own gift bow, straight out of a magazine.
And last but certainly not least… they have a super cool website design that they (Ash & Kimmy) designed, including their rad illustration. Love it!
Nice work ladies!
A lens.. that’s not a lens
Aug. 5, 2010

Looks like a lens right?

NOT!

I can just see a photographer sitting with a potential client at starbucks drinking out of this! It even has a Lens-cap lid, rubber-grip focus + zoom rings, and an auto-focus switch that actually switches! You can get your own right here.
Green Wedding Shoes
Jul. 29, 2010
Haven’t shown off any great websites in a while….
I love looking at great wedding photography, and I always love the color coordination brought to life. If you or someone you know is getting married anytime soon, you definitely need to check out this site!
DIY Fabric tape
Jul. 28, 2010

Another great tutorial from the fabulous Natalie Jost on how to make your own tape out of fabric. Brilliant idea! This looks like another fabulous option for my contract “packaging” as well!

I just love everything you can do with garland! Party decoration, home decoration, to packaging decoration! This garland is made by Kristina Marie and she has a wonderful selection of colors and prints!
Over the last few months I’ve been wanting to redo the “packaging” of my welcome documents and contract for my website clients. I’m completely torn, as I’m my own worst client, so I’m at a complete loss for what to do! I’m absolutely smitten over this use of garland on this box package though! I think it’d look great around a letter portfolio package don’t ya think?
