A Little News....

2010-04-12T11:00:00.001-06:00

Sorry about my absence here over the last couple weeks. Our family got really sick!! We're finally all better and back to our normal selves, if that's possible. ;)

While I was sick, I used honey in my tea (herbal, of course), so I thought it only appropriate to give Buzzings of a Queen Bee a shout out! Go Honey!!

And...who doesn't feel that PIE makes everything better. Well, I do! It's all American, ya know. So here's a shout out for Not Quite June Cleaver. Go Pie and all the other fabulous yummies over there!

I missed a couple designer spotlight Fridays...dang sickness! Not to worry, I'll have a wonderful designer spotlight up this week. You won't want to miss it, this designer is Fabulous!!

Catch y'all later!

Can you tell I'm on some kind of VINTAGE kick? This design is so relaxing and simple. I love the green accent (I'm on a green kick these days). Anyway, this design is very well organized and worth a trip over.

Also, Emily Rose (Simply Vintage Girl) and her sister, Breezy, designed 'Daughters of His Story' paper doll collection. They are beautiful, you must go see them. These two girls are so talented. I'm thinking of buying myself a book or two or three. I love paper dolls!

About Designs So Pretty

2009-07-20T18:14:00.002-06:00

Designs So Pretty started when I found myself saving hundreds of Pretty sites on my computer! Everyday I found more and more blogs & sites that I loved to look at....so, I started this site to share them with all of you. Aren't I nice! :)

A little about ME:

I'm an independent blog/graphic designer from the Beehive State, Utah. In 2007 I began playing around with HTML and Blog Design. It quickly became my passion! I'm currently a Stay @ Home Mom of Seven and Wife to one..Very Cool Man. Working from home allows me to give my children the attention they need and work in a place where the dress code is always Super Casual.

On my off days, I can be found decorating my home, spending time at our family cabin or playing games with my kids.

Things You Should Know:

~I LOVE my Family and I LOVE my Laptop....who's name is, 'Puter.
