Upcoming Bridal Show - May 22

I participated in my first Bridal Show at the beginning of March at the Austin Convention Center. It was a lot of fun and I got to meet a ton of brides. I got to see their reactions in person to my cards.

I have another Bridal Show, a smaller one, on May 22 in Austin at the River Place Country Club.

If you would like to come you can register on their website. I will be sure to post pictures and share anything cool.

Here are some bad pictures of my booth from the bridal show in March. I forgot the camera so these are lame cell phone pics.

If you have been to a bridal show, I would love to have your input on what things you look for when meeting vendors.

Thanks for reading today!

Must See Etsy Shop - Cycling 4 A Cure

To get ready for the bridal show I have coming up in March (my first bridal show), I wanted a banner for my table. I didn't want a cookie cutter vinyl banner since my cards are handmade I wanted something that would fit. Through Etsy's Alchemy feature I was able to find someone that made something spectacular for me!

This is my new custom Banner made by a great Etsy shop called Cycling 4 A Cure. When it arrived I was so pleased. It looks even better in person.
She makes Aisle runners that are hand painted, as well as table runners and banners. Not only do you get a beautiful end product, but the proceeds go to charity.

Here are some more examples from her Etsy shop.



Thanks for sharing this with me! Be sure to stop by again soon.

Color Combo Thursday - Yellow and White to brighten my day

Everything feels super stressful and depressing now. Work is suffocating and I never seem to have enough time for everything. I feel I am constantly busy and tired. Cake helps...

So I thought we could do a happy color combo to make me feel better. I have been eating those hostess yellow and white cupcakes.

So Hurray for YELLOW and WHITE (and cupcakes)...
