We got Press!
I was very excited to get my newest Greetings, Etc. magazine yesterday. It's always fun to see new trends and great products. If you love paper, you know EXACTLY what I mean. All those fresh colors and articles about the industry.
I was even more excited when I saw that we were mentioned with a shot of one of our note cards. They had asked me to send some high-res images of our 'pig party' note card so I thought it might be coming. However, I opened the February issue and no mention...assumed we'd been cut. SO...i was delighted when I saw us in the March issue. Yeah! Here is the invitation version of the note card that was in the magazine. We also have an adult version with cocktails in the pigs hands...um...i mean hooves.

February Birthdays & 'Mompreneurs'
We have a few February birthdays in our family - my husband, mom and brother-in-law. We threw a little surprise party for my mom and went to a Bobcats game for my husband's birthday. Of course, we also had plenty of valentines to make for the kids for school. Cupcakes & Cocktails provided the teacher valentines but my younger son wanted 'Ugly Doll' valentines so I bought them at the bookstore!
As lovely as February is, I'm really ready for March and the spring weather that comes along with it!
The Charlotte Business Journal had a feature last week about 'Mompreneurs' in Charlotte. It was an interesting article about how women are finding a balance between taking care of children and fulfilling their own dreams. The article featured a women who owns Mod Memento, an online store where she sells beautiful digital artwork. As a graphic design student I took a few typography courses and it is fascinating to see someone create beautiful art with it! I'm not a digital artist so I love to see the work of those who specialize in that area. Take a look.... http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6197235
