Watercolor flowers and modern calligraphy table numbers

My church's women's ministry is organizing a women's retreat coming up in a few weeks and I'm looking forward to a weekend of fellowship, reflection, and hopefully some rest even though I'll be bringing my 2 month old! The retreat coordinator asked me to make table number signs for the small groups that included watercolors and lettering. While the little one was napping, I made these table numbers using Tombow brush markers and watercolors.



I'm thinking these can easily be repurposed into signs for monthly baby birthday photos or wedding table numbers!

Quilled nursery decor and watercolor greeting cards

I co-hosted a baby shower this weekend and it was so delightful to celebrate a dear friend Bekah from my church! She is naming her daughter Elsa after her grandmother (and also happens to be a Disney princess now ;)  ). I've been loving the combination of watercolor and calligraphy and also made a birthday card for my bff. Read on to see the framed quilled nursery decor that I made for Bekah!

DIY Christmas gifts: dip-dye, marbled paper, and stenciled stationery



Now that Thanksgiving has ended...let the Christmas festivities begin! Christmas is my favorite holiday and I am grateful that we have the freedom to openly celebrate Christ's birth.
