Where Have We Been?!

Hi dear friends! We've been so neglectful to our blog, but it's not without warrant. Since October we've been preparing a new wedding line (3rd photo on the top row is a little sneak peak at some of the new invites!) and a card collection to launch at the National Stationery Show in NYC later this month! We're so excited and so humbled to have this opportunity. We'll be featuring 16 new customizable wedding suites and 54 greeting, thank you, Christmas, Mother's & Father's Day, Valentines Day, Easter and Birthday cards at booth 2054. We're especially excited about our new line, Ridge, that is a men's collection of greeting and notecards! 

When we haven't been working an unhealthy number of hours towards to show, we've also been traveling from one coast to another for business, welcoming in a beautiful new neice to our family, planning and styling a few weddings for clients and friends, cheering on our OKC Thunder and squeezing in a little time to enjoy each other.

We are so incredibly blessed to have the support system we do during this incredibly hectic season! Both sides of our family have bent over backwards, and been so sacrificial in helping us! It's the most humbling thing to want something so badly, and to have a network of people supporting that dream. We feel so so so blessed! We are also so encouraged by those of you who have dropped a kind note or word of encouragement! Geeze, we couldn't be more thankful!

Truthfully, the rest of the month looks to be pretty chaotic, but we're always updating our twitter and instagram (jisforwednesday)! We warmly invite you to keep up with us there! Thank you again!!!

We've Been Featured - Mollie Makes

Greetings from Seabrook, WA!!!! Garett and I are here working on a freelance project for a luxury travel company. To say we are completely blown away by this quaint new urbanist town would be the understatement of the century! Plus we are staying at the Coastal Living Ultimate Beach House from 2010, owned by the travel company, and the views, oh my the views, are just majestic! Case in point. We have been featured in Mollie Makes, a UK crafting magazine! They have featured our DIY Succulent Book Planters that we did for my sister's wedding back in June! Mollie Makes is published 13 times a year, and they curate the best crafts from around the world into a totally great magazine!

Family Models Needed ASAP!

Hey Yall! If you've been following us on facebook or twitter then you know we've been on the prowl for families to participate in a photoshoot this coming weekend in Seabrook, WA. Well, we are only days away from the 18th and we are upping the ante! We'd absolutely LOVE to have you and your beautiful family share a day with us in Seabrook on Saturday, Feb 18! Here's all the info you need!

Anthology is a luxury travel company with a growing portfolio of luxury homes around the US. All the Anthology homes offer top of the line amenities, but the heart of the travel company is to impact families by taking a more meaningful vacation- one with better stories and deeper connections. With this in mind, we are wanting to photograph real life families enjoying the homes and the communities they are in. We are working with Aaron Snow to photograph our homes with the intent of capturing genuine and authentic relatoinships within them.

One of the homes we own is in Seabrook, WA and we are staging a lifestyle shoot in and around the home on Saturday, Feb 18th. Here is a link to home- the 2010 Coastal Living Ultimate Beach House: ://www.seabrookcottagerentals.com/vacation-rental-home.asp?PageDataID=39242

We anticipate scenes like bike rides, hikes, shopping, beach time, clamming, food in and around the house and various scenes in the house to showcase people enjoying one another's company in an amazing setting.

We hope to capture photos that are rich with emotion and feeling. Here are some examples of the kind of photos we are shooting for. http://pinterest.com/anthologytravel/photo/ Seriously, who wouldn't want family photos like this?!

Here are the types of people we are looking for:

• Young families with kids ages 2-18
• Senior couples (even better with their kids and grandkids)
• Couples in their late 20s-early 40s

We'd like to invite you to joi us and/or share this with your friends and family! Please send us a photo and a time you might be available. In return for your time we will give you a disk of the photos taken! You will also get fed- either with us or via giftcard and... for the right family or group of couples we would be willing to put you up for the night in a Seabrook Cottage. Uh yeah, you read that right, folks. We look forward to hearing from yall and hopefully working together!!!!
