Mrs. Luna


The first year of teaching is always so exciting. Holly Luna is beginning her career as the guidance counselor at Irving College. She ordered this sign for her brand spanking new classroom. She based it on this past welcome sign, but wanted the daisy instead of the rose. I think it turned out pretty cute! Thank you, Holly, and congratulations!

Day Care Providers


Day Care Providers are such an important part of our world. There is nothing of more value to a mother than good early childcare. We had Miss Kaye, Miss Beth, Miss LuJuana, Miss Paula, Miss Tammy, and several other wonderful ladies who kept our babies when they really were babies.
Rachel Harvey wanted something special for her Day Care Provider, Miss Mary. She requested the primary colors and the dotted font. I added the gingham and ruler ribbon. I hope Miss Mary loves it!

Baby Shower


The perfect gift for any baby shower is something with the new baby's name on it. Everyone loves a personalized gift. Allison Stiles ordered this sweet little 5x5 to match Harlee's nursery. I think it turned out really cute and I love that polka dotted ribbon on top.

One Cool Teacher!


I don't know Mrs. Dreher, but if she wants paisleys in these colors she must be one cool teacher! One of my very best customers, Rachel Harvey, ordered it for her. On top of the paisleys and the bright colors, she asked that it included some orange - her favorite color. I added the black because it is such a good accent for all of those bright shades.
Hard to believe, but I do not have a teacher canvas in my own classroom. I think I might have found my design!

Shelbie


The zebra and hot pink have really been popular! This design looks so cute on the little 5x5 and I love the initial behind the name.
Gwen McCormack ordered this cutie for her daughter. The baseball "Brady" a few posts back is for her son. I can just see these on their bedroom doors!

For The Georgia Fan...


This one is being shipped off to Athens, Georgia, today. Rachel Harvey ordered it for a special teacher who happens to be a big Georgia fan. Naturally, she wanted it in red, black and white! She said for me to do swirls or dots or whatever I wanted. I decided to do a little different design. It turned out so pretty!


I had to feature this new black and white ribbon. I absolutely love the print and it just went perfectly with this canvas. I added the little strip of red to tie it all together.
