When I saw this pretty display as part of Max & Margaux’s wedding a while back I immediately thought of this quaint Thank You Card from Tori Higa. I love the idea of a cute display like this in a kitchen–so bright and fun!

I know it’s August and it’s not raining much, at least in California, but I just fell in love with this sweet Love Hideaway Love Card designed by Tori Higa. The image of a couple hiding from the rain under an umbrella is so sweet, and when paired with this real-life picture from Style Me Pretty, it just doesn’t get much better or cuter!
Though I enjoy watching the occasional football game, I’m not really a contact sports person. However, I’m always up for a carefree Sunday afternoon of badminton or croquet. Mix up a batch of Arnold Palmers, don your summer white, and invite a couple families over for a proper lawn party.
Nothing says preppy like an invitation on personalized stationery!

Thanksgiving has always been a favorite holiday of mine because of the emphasis on gratitude, counting your blessings, and spending time around a dinner table with family and friends. The cozy feeling of Autumn and the smell of comforting food always makes for a great holiday as well. We have recently moved out of state - far away from family and life long friends - so this will be our first Thanksgiving in a long time that we won’t be spending it in the traditional way. And because our family is so spread out now, I thought it would be the perfect time for my two year old son to start his greeting card design career in order to keep in touch with all of his loved ones throughout the country. Because he is only two, the thought of making multiple “original” cards for everyone seemed a bit daunting. (He is a boy after all - in his “twos” - and would rather play with cars or run in the dirt than make crafts for too long with his mommy.) It was the perfect solution to paint his little hand (he thought it was hilarious), stamp it on white paper, scan it, add a few photoshop touches, and import it to a blank photo card on Cardstore.com. We were able to make ten “handmade” Thanksgiving cards in one afternoon. Even if we can’t spend Thanksgiving this year with our usual family members, they will know that we are thankful for them.
This is such an easy project to do with your child - I highly recommend it. It’s fun, not very messy or time consuming, and the grandparents will love it!
Artist Tori Higa wrote the neatest entry on one of our favorite blogs, Designing Moms, today. She gave readers a glimpse into her creative process by opening up her sketchbooks. It’s fascinating to see her lovely designs on their way to becoming stylish greeting cards. I was thrilled to see the sketches of one of her designs featured in her Cardstore.com collection (and personally one of my favorites) highlighted in the article!
