Just arrived....round stickers!


I am so excited! I've been designing a bunch of round stickers that I've listed in my Etsy shop. Now I've put several in my store...Duck Duck Goose Designs. These stickers are so perfect for so many uses. Have your own small business? Use them to add a personal touch to your shipments to customers by using these as thank you stickers. Throwing a party? Coordinate your cupcake toppers, party favor tags, and envelope seals all with the same design (but different messages of course). Giving a gift? Personalize these with "happy birthday from ___." The possibilities go on and on!

Oh...we're getting close!

We are so excited...at least I am! We are finally in the last stages before we open our online doors at http://www.duckduckgoosedesigns.com/. (Don't click quite yet...you'll just get a prompt to log in...and if you're not me or Matt, you can't log in!). I've been working steadily to upload products while Matt's finishing up the welcome page. We will most likely open the site before we get all the product loaded because it takes some serious time to load product! And we have tons of it. I have so many designs (and so many more that I haven't even gotten onto the computer). But our philosophy is to take it slow and steady. We've also been filling a few orders off Etsy. Yay! Thanks for everyone who has ordered. We hope you love your packages. I'm going to download my camera pictures and post a few pics of the cute orders I sent out Monday. And if you are looking for a great end of the year teacher gift...check out our teacher memo pads on Etsy. (http://www.myduckduckgoose.etsy.com/) As for now, it's off to try to convince Ali Kate to nap. She and Isabella are giggling rather than sleeping as I type. Those two....they are a mess!

New Mommy Cards!

Mommy cards are one of my all-time favorite stationery gifts! These cards are for moms to be able to quickly and stylishly exchange contact information. Great for when you meet new moms at soccer, dance lessons, preschool, and more. Instead of searching for an old receipt in your purse, just hand out your mommy card with all of your info. These are available in almost every design we offer (too cute if you have coordinating folded notes to go with it!). These make a great gift for any mom for any occasion (or just as a small thank-you happy!).

This chocolate and bubblegum crazy dot is so fun for that outgoing mom! In bright colors...you can customize this as you wish! Great for moms with small businesses too (add your website in your contact info).



Oh, I love this sophisticated mommy card for the trendy mom who wants to share her contact information for playdates, carpool, and more! Great for the busy mom who doesn't have free hands to jot down her contact info...stylish and practical! These make a great gift for a new mom or any busy mom you know. A sweet happy to give for any occasion!

Teacher Memo Pads


My sister ordered several memo pads for her son's teachers and some co-workers. I just had to show this one off! Laura asked me to draw a group of kindergarteners (and make one look like Reid). The one with glasses is my nephew. I thought this turned out too cute, so I've listed this on Etsy. The pads turned out fabulous!

Mommy Memo Pads

Posted by Picasa
Oooh...I am over the top excited about these. I have been so excited about getting my memo pad making machine...and my first mommy pad turned out fabulous! I was very proud of it! I'm going to offer tons when we open our site.. I'm loving my memo pad!

Scalloped and Double Circle Boy


Mommy really wanted some cute pics of the kids...the other two girls don't have their Duck Duck Goose shirts on...so they ran off to play while I snapped these. Here's the double circle single initial shirt for boys on Grant. I just LOVE it. I paired it with some Little English blue gingham shorts, and it is adorable. Perfect for the warm summer days up ahead.

Single Monogram Tee


A little friend of ours is going to get this tomorrow as a gift at her first birthday party. I think it's just oh too cute! I love pink and green in case you can't tell already! My favorite color combination!

Blonde Girl Tee


Here's the blonde girl shirt...it's actually for a friend whose party was cancelled due to illness...so she'll have to wait to get this. It looks just like her! I know she's going to love it.

Scalloped Tee


Here's my oldest daughter in one of my very favorite designs, the scalloped tee. This one is done in pink and green...I made it to match her Anavini capris. I didn't have a matching top, but I loved the capris and had to buy them. So this design was totally inspired by these pants. Isn't she adorable?

Our Etsy Shop

So while we're waiting for Matt to finish up duckduckgoosedesigns.com....I've decided to list some items in a new Etsy shop. Yes, I dived into the Etsy world, and I'm very excited about it! I've started by listing my t-shirts...oh yes, I'm super excited about these. I made them for my kids and some birthday gifts, and I decided I had to offer them in my store. So....drumroll please....I'm going to share some photos of what the shirts look like in "real life!"

My Etsy shop is located at www.myduckduckgoose.etsy.com (duck duck goose designs was already taken to my disappointment!).
