This year both my sisters are graduates! My sister Grace will graduate from high school and my sister Sophie has earned her Master’s Degree. This makes this graduation collection illustrated by the talented Mirna Stubbs and that incorporates my hand lettering even more meaningful to see out in the world! I am so thrilled to be able to buy this collection to celebrate my sisters in 2023!

I am so excited to see the lettering I worked on for Hallmark graduation product showing up online and in stores! These money-holder style cards use my “Your Time to Shine” and “Woo Hoo” lettering which tie into a larger collection the talented Mirna Stubbs and I collaborated on.

April has come to a close and it went SO fast! This was our first full month with Grant and both Dale and I were off work on leave. I will always remember how special it was to have time at home together with our new baby! Family and friends got to come meet Grant and we spent many sleepless nights up with the baby, had pediatrician visits, and enjoyed all the snuggles. We also made it to Reverie, Grace’s musical she wrote and composed, celebrated Easter with family, and celebrated our nephew Graham’s 6th birthday. Here are a few favorites from around the web:
I’m not normally a big coffee drinker (until having a newborn) but this coffee bar and kitchen are dreamy!
While Easter is a whole year away, I’m bookmarking this recipe for next year
This was one of our favorite meals we managed to cook this month
I would love one of these necklaces as a new mom!
Dreamy interior spaces worth admiring
A favorite recent non-baby purchase, a fancy cat fountain for Otto!
And a set I purchased before baby arrived that I’m excited to finally get to wear!
I would love to make these Spring cheese boats for my next party!
A favorite piece I saw for this year’s 36 days of type
Wouldn’t this be fun for summer?
Dale and I are thrilled to introduce our son, Grant Everett Smith. He was born one month ago on 3.24.23 at 7 lbs. 4 oz. and 19.5 in. long. We are so in love and are extremely grateful to Lora for these magical newborn photos that we will treasure forever! Welcome baby boy!
I love how this Grandma lettering turned out for Hallmark Mother’s Day this year!

This year I will get to celebrate my first Mother’s Day as a mom so I couldn’t help but take a peek a bit early at what Hallmark gifts incorporated my lettering this year. I loved working on these casual script lettering styles for the My Mother’s Garden book and this cute frame!
