I believe in magic. I believe in the power of true love. I believe in fairy tales and happy endings. And I live to create stationery and art for the young at heart to allow my fellow dreamers to treasure all of life’s most wondrous moments!

For those of you trying to do it all, I feel ya. Always feeling short on one end whether it's falling short at being a rockstar mama to my little babe or just not feeling prepared enough at work (um, hello Christmas?!)... or even just not being available as a shoulder to lean on for friends. Or maybe you're a bride and wedding planning has just taken over your life! Spreading yourself thin can lead to some tiresome days where you just don't feel like anything you're doing is enough. I'm not alone in this right?? I wanted to share my verse I've been clinging to lately for some encouragement for those feeling like I do: "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." (2 Cor. 12:9). Grace upon grace! I need His grace! We might not deserve His grace but He keeps raining it down, thank you, Lord! - Gift tags from my Etsy shop #yournewfriendsam for the sweet @lindsaydol who also gets the photo credit! Thanks girl! . . . #samallencreates #Etsy #calligratype #dailydoseofpaper #escortcards #etsycommunity #etsyseller #etsyshop #etsyshopowner #etsyfinds #goodtype @thedailytype #handlettering #theheartfeltgrid #moderncalligraphy #placecards #smallbusinessowner #tableseating #tablesetting #wedding #weddingday #weddingideas #weddinginspiration #weddingphotography #weddingplanning #weddingreception #gifttags #christmaswrapping #christmasgift #placecards Today's the day! I get to see these little orange lovelies all set up at their styled shoot with @eventsbythecea! Here's to another check off my Lettering Bucket List: handpainted agate slices!! These were a dream to paint on! 😍 I'm definitely pushing myself out of my comfort zone (and my working from home pajamas attire) but I can't wait!! I will be sharing some behind the scenes photos of the shoot in my Stories later so stay tuned! . . . #samallencreates #yournewfriendsam #Etsy #calligratype #dailydoseofpaper #escortcards #etsyfinds #etsyshopowner #agate #agateslice #agateplacecards #brushlettering #handlettering #moderncalligraphy #modernscript #placecards #smallbusinessowner #tablesetting #thedailytype #weddingstationeryboss #weddingideas #weddinginspiration #weddingphotography #weddingplanning #weddingreception #styledshoot #OctoberBusinessChallenge @risingtidesociety @lauraleecreative @honeybook #theheartfeltgrid #risingtidesociety #communityovercompetition I believe in magic. I believe in the power of true love. I believe in fairy tales and happy endings. 💖 I believe that the great loves in our lives shape who we are. And it’s because of the great loves in my life that I became who I am today…. ✨ That's the intro to my new "About" page on my evolving website. Not gonna lie... I was struggling with writing about myself and then a Disney World commercial played on Hulu that brought a tear to my eye... my About page was written within minutes. I guess I just needed to be struck with some inspirational pixie dust. ✨ Where do you draw your inspiration? . . . #samallencreates #yournewfriendsam #communityovercompetition #creativeentrepreneur #creativepreneur #handletterer #girlboss #shopsmallbusiness #etsyseller #calligrafriends #californiacalligrapher #socalcalligraphy #flashesofdelight #findyourhappy #artforaliving #christianartist #handlettering #moderncalligraphy #handwrittenfont #modernscript #calligratype #createdtocreate #christiancreative #fridayintroductions #tellyourstory #theheartfeltgrid #disneyland #disneylife #disneyside #disneyarts This past week I have been working a lot on the behind the scenes of my little one woman operation here... I've been dreaming about who my ideal client is and what my dream projects would be. And then enters Grace, a new customer of mine, who is having me write out a Tolkien excerpt for her... a quote that they used at their wedding. This, my friends, makes my heart so happy... getting to create art that, when displayed in their home, will remind them of that day when their happily ever after started! Can I please do this everyday?! 🌿 I hope you enjoy this little sneak peek of my work in progress... I better get back to it before the paint mix dries! . . . #weddingstationery #weddingstationeryboss #fabulousfancypants #handmadepaper #dailydoseofpaper #weddingcalligraphy #brushlettering #calligrafriends #communityovercompetition #weddinginspo #marthaweddings #handlettering #modernscript #watercolor #watercolorlettering #weddingstyling #anniversarygift #paperanniversary #weddinganniversary #smpweddings #theknot #goodtype #typematters #etsyfinds #brushcalligraphy #OctoberBusinessChallenge @risingtidesociety @lauraleecreative @honeybook #theheartfeltgrid #risingtidesociety #tolkien
