Happy Holidays!

I will be taking time to enjoy the holiday season with my friends and family. I will be back after the new year with new exciting posts.

Big changes are coming for the new year at Blu Sky Designs. Here is a sneak peak...

How Cute is the Foster Family?

I can not thank Sondra from Sondra's Ink enough for drawing this precious holiday setting of our family. It will be perfect for the letterpress cards I am sending out to all my friends and family.

Sondra specializes in more lifelike drawings like these, but I really wanted ours to be more animated. She had no problem creating exactly what I wanted.

Please pay Sondra's blog a visit for some great designs!
