Postmark: LA
After many months of work, and several blog hints and teases I am so tickled to reveal the secret project that Teresa, Charlotte, Rebecca, Pam, Amy and I have been working on. Without further delay, here is our baby, POSTMARK: LA
Imagine a girls getaway that fills your creative well. A trip that reminds you why you create and how much fun it can be. Imagine friends who understand your passion for vintage and your appreciation of pretty. Now imagine one of these friends whispering a dream, "we should do a book"....everyone laughs, then, a pause, and suddenly this dream seems possible. Achievable...dare we say, even fun!
Yes, as many of you guessed, we have created our own 'petit livre'! We've been hard at work designing the kind of book that we would like to read. One that celebrates friendship, vintage findings and inspiring thoughts. Heavy on the eye-candy graphics and also including several 'for your use' pages (including an embroidery pattern and vintage photos just to name a few) Postmark:LA is a visual treat.
It's been a delight to work on this book together and I can't say enough sweet things about 'my girls' who included me on this amazing journey.
You can purchase your copy of Postmark: LA HERE.
As a thank you for your patience and joy in sharing this project with us, I'll be giving away the embroidery project that I created for the book. Just leave a comment below and I'll draw a name on Monday! Here's a wee peek at what you could receive:
Have a great weekend everyone!
Truly lovely!
