1. Found these on this blog: Nonpareil magazine. Wouldn’t these make adorable birthday party invites using bright summery patterned paper? Adorable.
2. Run, don’t walk to Ella Publishing Co. today and buy this new ebook by the very talented Lisa Dickinson. You will be so happy you did! I have admired her scrapbook pages for years–each one makes me go, “Oooh, I LOVE that!” You can’t get better design advice than from a graphic designer, right?
3. As you may have read in our family update, my oldest daughter got quite beat up after an attempted jump out of the swing at school about 2 weeks ago. She suffered a broken finger (which landed her 2 surgeries and 2 pins to set the bone), as well as some pretty nasty abrasions on her face. Take a look at the before and after shots. Mind you people, this is only 7 days difference. The human body is amazing, and so is the God who designed it!
And so are the good mommies that take the time and effort to help in the healing process – which I'm sure you did. Enjoy your blog!
