Suz said...

ah!! I'm the honored one and I'm giddy with excitement for Greta to see them! I hope my next order for Dagny's Birthday (April 20th) will be your 89th order! :)
I'll get with you on the colors...will need to coordinate since they share a room but different also....so start thinking!!

so...what the heck ate you waiting for? Get that etsy shop going!!!! I promise, it will only take a half hour-or if you are more like me-maybe an hour. You will be so glad that you did! I promise!!!!! THe letters are darling! Does anyone else say that-or is it just a Utah thing? Just wondering!!!

Tammy said...

Congrats on the order. And I agree with Tausha on her comment about you opening an Etsy shop - go for it. I love the letters.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I found Kristal and her "inspire" sign via your blog - so, thank you! I custom ordered another sign from her - "CREATE" for my office/art studio. And, no, I didn't do my boys' silhouettes. A lady came to their school and did it freehand - she's amazing.

Kim said...

OMG they look awesome!!! Fantastic work!

Adorable!! I guess Octavius' mommy missed out, huh? ;) I have been wanting to get over here to read, but my computer fried last week, and I just got a new one. Happy blogging! :)

Candy Graber said...

Hi there! I just wanted to say that I love your blog! I just finished making some letters for my family room. They didn't turn out as cute as yours, but I think they were ok for my 1st time! Thanks for all the great ideas! Keep it up!

Amanda said...

Hey Amanda - thanks! Glad you liked my book. The paper came out of a book/pad of scrapbook paper I got at Michaels. The brand is We R Memory Keepers. There are some really cute papers in it! I know - I'm totally burnt out on HL's papers.

Simona Walters said...

hey, I wanted to find out how you did with the letters at the craft fair??? email me at walterssimona at gmail.com

I actually just did one of my own and only showcased a couple of letters and none sold so I was wondering if I needed to do more words instead of just letters... Let me know what you think
