booth goods

by coconutgoddess on April 25, 2010

This last weekend, my little sister Lea had a booth at the Utah Women’s expo. It was a blast…

I got to help her out the best way I knew how… by creating some glittery goodness for the booth, and help with designing the her business  materials. I love how it all turned out, and most of all… so did she!

Today I had the fortune to tape another episode of the Paperclipping Roundtable. {with Noelle Hyman, Nancy Nally, Izzy, and Stacy Julian} The topic of the day -minibooks. During our discussion Stacy had a WONDERFUL idea for us to share some of our minis! So here are some of my favorites.

So my favorite mini is the free form. Rarely do I create a minibook that is just all square or retangular. With shaped books, I will often let the pictures and elements hang off the page!

I also LOVE  making minis from different materials. Here is one created from a Sweethearts box. I gave one to my little brother once made from an old record!

You can see the inside pages here.

Famous Flowers

by coconutgoddess on April 1, 2010

Hey look! My flowers are famous…lol. 

The pink flower at the top is one I created for the Flower Article in the April/May issue of Simply Handmade. I have to admit, it never gets old seeing my creations in print. So much fun! Simply Handmade is one of the magazines at my publisher. And I have to say, everytime I see the new issue, I just want to run home and start creating. So much inspiration.

Try an online issue for just $1 and check out the whole article.
