Christmas card update...

If the way I keep up with this blog is any indication, I have been super busy! I have also been trying to be better about balancing my time between my family and my work. I am nowhere near perfect yet, but I'm slowly starting to figure some things out, and that feels good.

Which brings me to Christmas cards.

I have already had a few ask about them, so I thought I better put up an announcement about this year. Here's the deal. I think I am going to sit this year out. I have done Christmas card designs the past four Christmases, and they are at the top of my list of favorite things to design. But. This year I think I am going to focus on enjoying the holidays and traditions with my family and...that's all.

 I hope my loyal Christmas clients understand, and I do imagine that I am going to miss designing Christmas cards so much that I'll be back next year. ;) In the meantime, let me point you in the right direction of a couple of talented designers and friends of mine...

Ashley of Snowbird Design is offering super cute and affordable pre-designed and custom designs.

Haley of HH Design House also offers lots of pre-designed cards, as well as custom designs. She also offers printing.

Thanks, friends. If I can help you in any other way, please let me know!

recent(ish) blog designs

So sorry for the crickets here. The actual designing of blogs and such has kept me busy! Here are a few recent faves...

Morgan of Modern Mommyhood

Sharon of Brimming Grace

Meg of Come to the Kitchen

If you are interested in a new, fresh design of your own, I am currently filling available spots for April.

Take a look around the shop, and let me know what I can do for you!

accepting new orders again!

It's true! I am finally able to start accepting new orders again. If you are interested in grabbing an available spot, please take a look around the shop first, as some of my blog design packages and design policies have changed. When you're ready to talk about your new design, use the contact tab above or send me an email at sharon.redbud@gmail.com, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible with a deposit invoice. The current estimated wait time for an initial preview is around 6 to 8 weeks. Thank you to all of you who have shown interest in a new Redbud design over the past couple of months. I look forward to hearing from you again!

a little Redbud update

I hope you had as great of a Christmas as we did! We just returned from Texas this morning, and I'm excited to get back to Redbudding. :) I hope to open the wait list back up within the next week or two. I'll be making some changes to my services, catching up on some projects that I wasn't able to get to before Christmas, and updating the premade shop with invite and announcement designs - and once everything is ready, I'll start taking new orders again! Thank you so much for your patience until then.

In the meantime, here are a few of my custom Christmas card designs from this past month...

I'll share a few more over the next day or two. Happy 2012!
