Marabou Design is #1!

Minted hosted it's first ever minibook challenge. Their unique Minibook card format invited designers to unleash their vision for special occasions booklets. Marabou Design's Visage took home the Top Wedding Minibook card prize, plus the $500 Judge's Picks, awarded by the lovely & talented, Guest Judge Anne Sage. What makes this win so special is the community of designers, customers, friends, and fans that selected my design to be #1.

When this calender year began I set out with a goal to make it into the top 3, which I accomplished with the Love at First Serif Wedding Challenge my Winter Birch design placed 3rd out of 345 designs submitted. What an honor to place 1st out of the 213 entries submitted in Minted's first ever minibook challenge, earning my very first 1st place badge from the community. In the folksy, whimsical world stationery it's nice to know that modern simplicity is appreciated. Thank you all for your support & encouragement. It's back to the drawing board for me. Big hugs!

Marabou Design + Pregnancy Magazine

Run don't walk to your nearest news stand to purchase Pregnancy Magazine's May 2010 issue! Marabou has taken over the Must Haves! I had a blast selecting the items featured for the Updated Heirlooms article. Research was a breeze! I only traveled upstairs to my daughter's room, made a list of treasures & spent the rest of the afternoon reminiscing. As our daughter's 3rd birthday fastly approaches, I say goodbye to her first years & accept her new title "Toddler", I look over the little lovelies that have documented her young life, take a deep breath & smile.
