my blogroll.
so a few of you guys have asked which blogs i read. wow. where do i start?
here's a short laundry list below. but first, i must say, that i go through phases. it depends on my mood, the inspiration i want/need, and if i just want to look at pretty pictures :)
so, here we go:
photography
jasmine star photography great design, layout, inspiration, and fantastic person.
sarah rhoads photography quirky. love her & her husband-wife team.
by shea photography met her for a weekend in atlanta, love her style and inspiration.
from me to you awesome photo blog. cool stuff.
inspiration
cup of joe fun giveaways, fun gifts, city life
making things happen sometimes i need a challenge, and lara does it here. must read.
design
oh hello friend funky designer (reminds me of myself) great photography and inspriation
invitation blog great inspiration.
interior design
blue moss seen in a booth once. love the funky eclectic styling
my blog styles change i think weekly, but this is what i'm reading now. i really don't know what i'd do without blogs. sometimes they are my outlet to the reality of my world. does anybody else feel like this? its like you can read and get deep into people and realize your problems just aren't so big, or maybe you can get inspired, have more fun with something, or get great ideas.
any suggestions of new blogs?

hiatus, no?
no, no hiatus.
just catchup. yes, that's what i've been doing and playing for the past month of no blogging.
wow, and just to get back to the surface seems quite peaceful and lets me breathe!
a few things about me that you might need to know at this point :
With all this, my lovlies, be patient, there are good and great things coming. With my crazy schedule, it just doesn't happen in my time :)
So, with that being said, I'm offering the first 3 people who email me for photography services - portrait, engagement, bridal, or family, 20% off their first booking. Mention ALLIN.
Feel free to pass this info along!

a few things about me that you might need to know at this point :
- i'm an all or nothin' kinda girl. i devote all my time and energy into one thing, and then i get burnt out. yes, it happens. i try not to get there, but it happens, which results in mini-hiatuses. if that's a word. so, here i am, ready to roll again with new fresh ideas.
- i've found a love for hot yoga and circuit training. its amazing to me how you can walk into a place like these, exhuasted, burnt out, tired, frustrated, etc, and walk out a new person. wow. if you are searching for something you don't know what it is, a new you perhaps, try one of these. its amazing how much energy you have and hopefully it will contribute to sleeping better. which is another reason for burn out. and yes. that's me. sleep deprived. not because of stress, its because its me, working on that :)
- i'm working on a few new things for my business. what do these include?
- birth and wedding annoucements, personal stationery, downloadables
- my new website, including new blog, tba
- a totally integrated customer ordering system within my new website
With all this, my lovlies, be patient, there are good and great things coming. With my crazy schedule, it just doesn't happen in my time :)

{tapping into my crafty brain}
i'd like to think i'm a pretty crafty kinda girl. i love reading blogs on how-to's , DIYs, tutorials, and just plain making pretty things. i love to get inspired by somebody's favorite color scheme, ideas, experiences, or anything that makes people happy.
i think my ambition in life is really to do just that. make things that make people happy. in turn, i make myself happy, but other people too. i read a verse that really just kind of captivated me. its this :
i don't know what the future holds. with my field, there is so much out there. there are lots of ways that design and photography can go. as for now, i'll plug on like i'm "pluggin" on. and as for the future, i'll see. but in the now, its the little things that are making me happy. reading blogs. people's experiences, crafting adventures and just their daily lives. its amazing how you can connect.
anyways, my whole point is to say, i wouldn't have the love of photography and design, if i couldn't be hands-on too. i really love the whole aspect of being an artist, that you can change your daily routine. i feed off of using my hands to make things. i'll keep it that way, and i'm sure my plans will succeed :)
as for now, here's a few crafty tutorials that i think i'm going to dig into this weekend!
gettin a little crafty makin' a tshirt

this girls faith and style
whoah, amazing cut paper artist
i'm working a new weekly feature, called {tapping into my crafty brain} and i hope that you're gonna like it. i'll just be pouring out what's going on with me. hopefully you'll be along for the ride.
and please. be patient.
my new website is coming!

i think my ambition in life is really to do just that. make things that make people happy. in turn, i make myself happy, but other people too. i read a verse that really just kind of captivated me. its this :
"Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed." (Proverbs 16:3)
it makes you stop, doesn't it? its hard sometimes for us to be selfish and want the things that WE want. we all struggle with that, don't we? i sure do. but this verse really helps me with that. to me, it means, hey - our own worldly desires are not something that we should push away, because if you commit to whatever it is that you do, your plans will succeed. that's why i feel like i really get to my happy place when i make things. when i make people happy. and when i just take time to put effort into my business and the way i want people to see me. i'm real, i am who i am and i'm not going to change my persona to fit anyone elses. that's why i have my favorite colors, my style, my passion and love for photography and graphic design. i've often told people, i would still do graphic design and photography even i didn't get paid to do it. i just love it that much. and one day, my plans will succeed. i don't know when. i know i'm successful at what i do, because people confirm that for me. i get new ideas and inspirations and excitement and that just confirms i'm doing what i need to be doing. my plans are successful.i don't know what the future holds. with my field, there is so much out there. there are lots of ways that design and photography can go. as for now, i'll plug on like i'm "pluggin" on. and as for the future, i'll see. but in the now, its the little things that are making me happy. reading blogs. people's experiences, crafting adventures and just their daily lives. its amazing how you can connect.

{business stationery} the shriners
being completely humble about these cards, i was very honored to design these lovely linen finished cards for a client of mine, who will be the next sc president of the shriners. such a simple design is so meaningful, including the scaled imprint in the background.

{t-shirt design} ever clean
A fun little project I completed a bit ago, was a logo and tshirt design for a cleaning business. The business is Ever Clean, and they focus on really using your talents and God-given gifts, to joyfully clean residential houses. The shirts turned out great, and it was fun to work with such a great business owner and fun colors! What do you think?
