A Little Eye Candy

Comments (6)

I have to squee just a bit. I’m a sucker for pretty paper and printing. You wouldn’t believe how much I drool when I look at other people’s pretty stationery. I have a ton of RSS feeds in my blog reader dedicated just to showcasing the business cards and designs that amazing designers create.

Little newborn bodies are so full of character. Wrinkled skin, grimaces, and swirls of hair all over the body. Baby J. has a mini…
