How lucky I am to see this handsome face every day! We’ve learned so much about each other in the past 10+ years together, and marrying him 4 years ago was the best decision I ever made. Our lives are about to get more complicated with a little one on the way, but I know that with this guy by my side, we’ll all be ok. Here’s to many, many more happy years.

I added a few new designs to Hello Tenfold last week, and one of them is “Refinery,” which you might recognize from a quick sneak peek a couple weeks ago! I love this one because it’s formal without being stuffy, and modern without being too over-the-top.
More info over in the shop!

Recently added to the Hello Tenfold shop, one of our newest suites: Wings and Boughs. Just in time for Spring!
Introducing “Sampler,” another design from my 2013 collection for letterpress company Bella Figura! This one is sweet but sophisticated, and I love it with copper foil and peachy-pink “French Vanilla” ink.
