Pumping out some Hearts

Aria and I spent our Monday printing Valentine's. Aria mostly supervised this time. She now likes to ride in the backpack and touch everything within reach. She definitely contributed to their creation. I left the cutting and gluing work to after she was in bed. 

I've been moving this purple paper and the 5x7 Deckle cards around our apartment for probably 4 years. I needed to find a way to use it or lose it. I also hate throwing away the scraps to this lovely handmade paper. Found a use for both in this years Valentine's. Yay! I also found a few old encyclopedias recently that I wanted to print on. I was hoping to fold and print on the pages, but they are too brittle and break when folded and handled too much. Perfect for these dainty shapes though.  

Spread the Love around this Valentine's Day!! xoxo

Packing and Playing

It's cold outside and a lovely evening to stay in to pack stationery orders.
Aria kept me entertained while getting used to her new Johnny jump up.

Ringing in 2013 with lots of Thankfulness

Today the littlest crew member at hyc Creative and I collaborated on Thank You cards for our family. We were showered with lots of amazing gifts for Christmas and thought we'd get our hands dirty to show our gratitude. I thought Aria would really like it since she loves paper and wants to touch everything these days. She did really well, but I don't think she liked getting her hand messy. It took a while to get the black ink off both of us and her nails still look like she's been under the hood of a car all day. We'll do better next time : )
