SO big changes and news! I have launched my new company AND I have started a new blog.
I invite you all to please stop by and check it out! This has been a very exciting last couple of months and I couldn't be happier about this new adventure. As of today I will no longer be updating this blog.

It's no secret that I have slight addiction to nailpolish. In some states I could be considered a hoarder.
In my defense, no hoarder is as organized as I am. I mean, SO WHAT if the cabinets under my bathroom sink resembles a nail salon. I simply love color, ok.

I have decided to take some of my skills and put them to use.
For now it is opening an Etsy site. It is under construction as of right now but I will be putting content up shortly.
Specialties including, graphic banners for blogs, websites, templates for stationary, business cards, letterhead, etc. I will be including my prints for sale which can be used for practically anything such as fabric, paper, canvas, etc. All are one of a kind designs made by yours truly.
Anyway, just thought I would share as I am trying to expand. Eventually I would like to grow onto my own website and sell my service exclusively through that, baby steps I guess.

I am super jazzed this morning, which is always a good thing. I am learning alot about myself and what I want lately and finally feel like I am ready to take steps to move forward. My biggest problem is that I set my goals so high, I never get to see the fruits of my labor because I am too distracted with other things. This year I am setting my sights out smaller, and working my way towards what I want.
There will definitely be some more projects coming my way and hopefully by next year this time I will be patting myself on the back to some degree.
I know it is so cliché to have resolutions during this time, however what other time do we all stop and realize that we need to be making goals for ourselves. We all have them. Why not take the time to actually write them down that way they won't be overlooked.
2011 is going to be different, I can feel it.
Cheers!

So I am going to be a pusher right now and say, those of you not using Google reader (esp. with gmail) are missing out. Reason being, I don't really have to scroll sight to sight, or crowd my bookmarks bar because I can put a live stream of my fave sites in Reader and then check daily for new updates. Not to mention you can neatly organize it by category so you don't get confused.
Anyhoo! On to what I really came here about. I subscribe to some packaging design websites that showcase up and coming designers, as well as new techniques and packaging inspiration. I saw this and I thought it was a rad idea. I feel like ALOT of packaging is so boring. It is nice to see all these new ideas.

Continuing on from the same Balmain show. I love the rich, bold colors plus the gold and deep burgundy. Which reminds me....
Having just watched SATC, Samantha was definitely styled similarly in some scenes. One thing I think will re-emerge by next Fall is dark lipstick.
The ever so popular Red lip is going to turn into the Deep Plum hues. There was a lot of true 90's elements styled into that movie but that really stood out to me. Maybe because I wore dark lipstick?
