The Holiday theme continues
Today's newest design may be faux, but it's still fab. I love the look of foil-stamped cards, but they are often cost-prohibitive so I designed a faux foil look party invitation for the holidays. The back even has a pattern of prancing reindeer. Now I just need to throw a party so I can order some.

The Collage Collection
This week I've been working with pieces from Shelli Hoggarth's latest designs called the "Collage Collection." I really enjoy minimalist styling and waiting for the natural light to reach its peak before shooting. All of the pieces are available in gold, rose gold or sterling silver at Nan Lee Jewelry. I fell head over heels for the rose gold and it's now my favorite go-to piece.
Gathering pretty things
I've been busy gathering pretty things from Nan Lee Jewelry to style and photograph for their website. I'll be posting the gorgeous collage collection by designer Shelli Hogarth later this week.
