First and foremost, welcome to my blog! I have found myself for months spending countless hours lost in the talents of other bloggers out there, especially those in the design world....and thought to myself, I want to do that! So I came up with the Downtown Collection, a collaboration of some of my original work and the things that inspire me, both old and new.
A little about myself....I am the owner & designer of Downtown Paper & Press. I am in the process of starting an Etsy shop, so please check back often to see what's new! I create custom invitations, holiday & greeting cards, stationary and calling cards as well as business logos and other graphics. Correspondence is such a great outlet for growing strong relationships with people, and I'm so thankful God put the passion in my heart to find original and fun ways for people to express themselves to one another.
As devoted as I am to Downtown Paper & Press, I still have a "real" job...a job that I am very grateful to have. I love that I get the opportunity to come in contact with so many genuine people on a daily basis. I've had some bad jobs, and this is not one!
I am the oldest sibling of four, a wife of one amazing husband, and daughter of two wonderful parents. I can thank my mom and my grandma for my obsession with all things pretty, two truly classy women who, very simply put, know how to style themselves and their homes. There are about a million things I would like to learn how to do, and if I had to choose one person to teach me, I would choose Martha Stewart.
I hope you enjoy the "collection."
