Interesting Colour Combinations for Weddings

This is a popular time of year for weddings. Yes, love is in the air and many couples are busy planning their weddings. Some couples instantly know what colours they want for their big day and others need a little help. There are lots of gorgeous colour combinations. Hot pink and black, purple and cream, blue and chocolate brown, lime green and pink just to name a few. I’ve been working on some elegant wedding designs for save the date announcements, stickers and wedding postage. Here are a few from my store.

Things That Remind Me Of Summer

The sun is out and it is actually warm out today!  Woot!  I was inspired to do something outdoors so I vacuumed and cleaned out my vehicle! That felt good! Do you have things that remind you of summer days?  Maybe it’s eating a certain flavour of ice cream, taking a country drive, going for a nature walk or swimming in a lake. There are so many great things that summer makes us think of. I thought I’d feature some of my cute and cool summer designs for you to see! These might make great gifts if you have birthdays coming up! Enjoy and visit my store Designs by Shell to see more!

Blooming

I hope my writing blooms as well.

Like a Lion or a Lamb

Well it’s the first day of March, hard to believe! Sometimes I feel like I’m in a time warp, it seems to be going way too fast! Well did March come in like a lion or a lamb?  If you don’t know what the saying means I’ll explain it to you. If March starts out wintery and cold, it’s like a lion but if it comes in with sunshine and warmth it is like a lamb. If March starts like a lion then usually it will end up like a lamb and vice versa so the saying goes.

I’ve been busy working on my designs for spring. Including florals, wedding themes, birthdays and thinking of June graduations. You’ve always got to be a step ahead of the seasons it seems. Here are some of my designs below. Hope you enjoy them and pop by my store Designs by Shell to see more.

Annabelle sometimes looks like a Kangaroo

When Annabelle goes doo doo outside, she looks like a kangaroo in mid-hop!  Happily, I can say she goes exclusively outside now!!! : )

Biggles Teaching Annabelle

Annabelle just wants to play.  She wonders why Biggles is constantly hissing and hitting her head with his paw.

Yearning For Spring

Well I don't know about you but I sure am ready for Spring to come. Today is actually a sunny day even though the temperature is cold out. I've been going through several of my pictures that I took last spring and summer. I can't wait to get my camera out again and capture some fabulous floral and garden shots. I recently finished a lens (article) on taking floral photographs. You can view it here Tips and Pictures of Floral Photography
Here I've showcased some of my flower pictures on items I've designed for my store. I have a wide variety of wedding products, home and office products and all kinds of greeting cards featuring my floral photos. Here is a sampling below... come by Designs by Shell to see more.
