So... my oldest turned double digits this last week. She's 10 now. I wanted to make it really special for her, so I thought and I thought and I thought... and I came up with this: She's a perfect 10! That's when I knew I needed to have a special announcement card made for her. Something I could send out to my friends and family, and hers, and my husband's, to show just how proud we really are of her.
I did a mini photo shoot with her, and picked a few great pics... and then I wrote a poem to print on the back... and re-wrote it, and then re-wrote it 5 more times. Yes. balling the whole time of course.
I'm so happy with the way these turned out, that I'm going to add announcements to my shop :) As well as contact cards! I've always wanted a contact card that wasn't my business card. That way I didn't feel like I'm shoving my business down the throat of my kids' friend's moms! LOL! So I started with these contact cards for G. That way she can hand em out to her friends on the last day of school so they can keep in contact over summer. She might be a LITTLE young for these, so if given a second chance... I would leave her last name off. And I think she needs a different email address that is more incognito. But these will do for now ;)
So, I know what your thinking... those look fabulous, where did she have them printed?! Well I should just keep that a secret for myself. But I'm not going to :) I'm going to share with YOU because I've had the MOST wonderful experience working with these people! I used Pro Digital Photos. Here is a little marketing quip that I was gifted by Veronica who works there :) Thanks to all who work there... I couldn't be more pleased!! And if you think I made that cute chevron print... or the butterfly print. nope. I didn't. I bought those! I love the etsy shop, LillyBimble. Her uses are very fair, and her work is adorable. The possiblities are endless... I've been using her stuff all over the house :) xoxo Missy
