Happy Valentine’s Day!

Sasha opened his little Valentine’s treats this morning, and we’re going out for dinner tonight – he won’t tell me where though! The suspense is killing me.

For some Valentine’s inspiration and to brighten your day, go to Style Me Pretty to see their gorgeous Love Notes shoot! None of the cards are quite as pretty as the beautiful one that my best friend, McKenzie, sent me!

Sasha’s little surprise: Customized M&Ms (ASPB Team – our family nickname due to us having the same initials ASP and our nickname for the dog – PB, Volim Te Puno – I love you lots in Serbian, and two pictures of us and Belle), banana Crave cupcake, personalized collar stays, ‘You Make My Heart Skip a Beet’ card, two Chocolove bars (have you tried these? You must), and of course, a single rose (ha, I had to).

Golden Baby Announcement

If you’ve seen some of the nursery inspiration I’ve posted so far, you can likely guess that the color gold will have a huge influence in all things related to our baby girl! When I saw these golden calligraphy baby announcements by Val Marie Paper on Oh So Beautiful Paper, I swooned. I fell in love with Val’s stationery skills back here.

Favorite pieces of these announcements: First, the name Vivi Mae is so darn cute (we’ll share our name soon!); secondly, that baby is adorable; third of all, that calligraphy by Katherine Holly is amazing. I cannot wait for my two upcoming calligraphy workshops!

Calligraphy Filled Fiesta

I love a good fiesta, especially the one featured on Blue Eye Brown Eye here. Lauren designed the paper for this spectacularly colored wedding. I think that the flowers, paper, and desserts all complement each other perfectly. It’s fantastic. I am signed up for a calligraphy class led by Lauren (owner of Blue Eye Brown Eye) in March – I’m so excited. It’s a few days after the Meant to Be Calligraphy workshop I’ll be attending in Washington, DC with my mom. I can’t wait to learn from these two experts!

‘Hello, Baby’ Stationery

Of course, the minute we find out that we’re pregnant, my brain immediately thinks about the birth announcement. I’ve posted a few of my favorites here and here in the past, but have been scouring the internet a lot recently for other ideas.
