Happy Monday, friends! Today I wanted to share a recent wedding suite I created for my neighbor, Addie. My favorite detail was the watercolor greenery in her envelope liners. Enjoy!

AIGA KC Design Week: Juan Carlos Pagan
Tonight I was able to attend Juan Carlos Pagan's talk in KC for design week! I haven't been to an AIGA event in awhile and it was wonderful to get to spend an evening hearing about his work. JC is an art director, typographer, and designer who loves to manipulate letterforms to tell stories. His talk focused on doing things the hard way, and his passion for creating definitely comes through in his work. Thanks AIGA KC, and my friend Lila, for bringing another great speaker to KC!
Here are a few of my favorite projects Juan Carlos shared during his talk:

March Around The Web
I have decided that Spring is my favorite season. Every year around this time I feel so refreshed, despite the chaotic nature of this month which was filled with travel, family events, and a busy season at work. I think just being able to get outside more often really improves my mood, and all the sunny weather in New Orleans during our trip was especially nice. I also LOVE all the flowers that begin to peek out at the start of Spring. Coco Kelley's Romantic Floral Tutorial caught my attention this month — I adore the moodiness and how it perfectly captures the emotion of this season. Here are a few other favorites from the web this March:
I loved seeing Ken Sheldon's beautiful illustrations for Think.Make.Share. available on Designlovefest!
Such a simple DIY that I'm dying to try.
I'm often inspired by posts on Design Sponge, and these quotes were no exception.
This bow guide is so charming.
I finally got around to trying out this Roasted Chickpea recipe this week, it was delicious!
While I am loving my Productivity Planner, May Designs' new Folios have me considering ordering a few of their notebooks...
Waiting for an occasion to make this macaroon cake.
Dale and I are starting to ponder a Europe trip after he finishes school, Lisbon is high on my list!
Does anyone sleep on a silk pillowcase? It seems so luxurious (and great for your skin!).
Last weekend I saw Disney's new Beauty & The Beast movie and it was visually stunning. I am curious about the process of designing the sets and costumes.
Last, but not least, I just ordered a faux-collar from a talented Hallmarker, Cece. I choose the Peach Fern pattern.
