Last Thursday evening after a long day of an active and energetic toddler and baby that was fighting sleep most of the day, this mother needed a nice quiet break :) I decided to go to Swoozies during my little get away outing to browse all the beautiful stationary, gifts and packaging. If you haven't ever heard of Swoozies you are missing out and must check it out. The company is based out of Atlanta and there are many locations scattered across the south east. As I was walking through some of the card racks, I came across something I recognized...the first time I've ever seen it on the shelf.
Low and behold it was Tamagrams "Bride (Words)" that has been licensed and distributed.
It was such surreal moment for me. So cool and what a surprise to see it there! As an artist, it is such a crazy feeling because you have seen it from the conception and all the different hands (and time) it has to go through to get to the point of sitting on a shelf after being licensed. It is such a long process; in this case a 2 year process. I felt like a proud little momma bear and it was all I could do to not run and tell the store associates that were near by :)
This past week, I was also notified that Tamagrams was featured in Stationary Trends "Fresh Picks" Winter 2011 issue as well as Greeting Etc. Winter 2011 issue. I feel beyond honored and so very thankful on so many levels.

Thank you for taking the time to read what the latest has been in my world. I hope that this can in some way shape and form be an encouragement to others to pursue what it is that you love. Find your God given-passion, have fun with it, run with it and see where you land!
Blessings to you all...until next time!
