Not trying to rush him growing up, but we’re patiently waiting for him to grow a half an inch so we can take him on some big kid rides at Disneyland next week. Splash Mountain is my favorite ride and I’m beyond excited to finally have a ride buddy to go on it with me! What’s your favorite ride??

She was looking for a venue sketch of the entry gate, in all its Spanish moss splendor, to be used on the invitation. I knew it was going to be a challenge and definitely more detailed than any other venue sketch I had done yet so I got right to work—and while I usually create my drawings with putting ink to paper, for this amount of detail I instead experimented with different brushes on my iPad... it took no less than 3 full drawings to find the perfect brush that did the trick and gave the look I was hoping for. I'm glad I kept at it though because the final piece is one of my favorites of the whole year so far! Swipe through for some close ups and even a video!! Do you have any questions on my process?

I’m not sure if it’s the bright light, the drawer full of paints, the echo of my toddler playing downstairs or the encouragement of friends nearby (and in the same time zone) but I really missed being in that guest room turned office! What can I say, it's just where my creativity thrives! What about you, where do you work best? . . . #samallencreates #yournewfriendsam #etsyseller #etsysellersofig #etsysellersofinstagram #shopsmall #shopsmallbiz #watercolorartist #etsysuccess #meetthemaker #socalartist #watercolorartist #communityovercompetition #creativeentrepreneur #creativepreneur #girlboss #bossbabe #calligrafriends #handlettering #moderncalligraphy #createdtocreate #christiancreative #behindthescenes #onthedesk #onthedesktoday #workspacegoals #homeofficedecor #currentdesignsituation #myhomestyle #behindtheartist One of my favorite things about my calligraphy designs is that they are completely customizable. In fact, many of my clients agree that this is their favorite thing about them too--next to the quality and my hands-on approach. For these brand new wedding programs, I was still in the midst of their initial design and as Nicole was my guinea pig, I was able to customize her prints with their names written in my unique brush calligraphy! If you’d like to see more about these brand new ceremony programs, head to my shop at www.yournewfriendsam.etsy.com to see the design, color and font options! . . . #yournewfriendsam #samallencreates #handpainted #watercolor #watercolorlettering #brushcalligraphy #brushlettering #handlettering #modernscript #moderncalligraphy #imengaged #isaidyes #bride #bridetobe #bridetobe2019 #weddingplanning #weddingdetails #weddinginspiration #weddinginspo #misstomrs #weddingprogram #weddingprograms #weddingdesign #venuestyling #weddingdecorations #ceremonyprogram #ceremonyprograms #weddingceremonyprograms #weddingplanningfun #weddingstationery
