No fear here!

By mewpaperarts - Last updated: Wednesday, September 30, 2009

While doing my regular, daily blog crawl, I stopped by my friend Becka’s at Studio222.  She and her honey Nate always have something up that just about makes me snarf tea out of my nose.  One of her recent posts featured a silly but thought provoking question which has inspired me to dig a [...]

By mewpaperarts - Last updated: Tuesday, September 22, 2009

Despite my hearty attempts to hold it back each year, the holidays are already sneaking up on us.  And from a retail perspective, I might even be a little behind. *Grumble, grumble, grumble*.  I’ll spare you my Grinchy monologue–no need to bring the rest of you happy little elves down with me!
The Holiday Section at [...]

By mewpaperarts - Last updated: Friday, September 18, 2009

Now that I’ve been blogging a bit more regularly, I sometimes feel bad when I don’t get to it for a few days!  I start to wonder if my legion of adoring fans is starting to miss me!  Pffft–imagine that!  There’s a lot to catch you up on the past few days–seems like a whirlwind [...]

A Personal Post :: Weightloss approaching 30

By mewpaperarts - Last updated: Monday, September 14, 2009

I’m sure I’ve mentioned turning 30 more than a few times in the past weeks. I keep telling myself (and anyone who asks) that 30 is no big deal for me—I feel good about where I am in life, and where I’ve come from to get to this (mostly) comfortable place in my spirit. But one thing keeps sticking to [...]

Mew Paper is now an @emmalinebride Vendor

By mewpaperarts - Last updated: Friday, September 11, 2009

We all know I have somewhat mixed feelings about Twitter–I have yet to really honestly convey the feelings I have (I’ve got a drafted post that I just don’t have the courage to publish!).  But even despite my (mostly) negative feelings, I do come up with some pretty cool finds once in a while.  I [...]

Hand Painted Jane Wilson Wedding Gown inspires a Custom Invitation Suite

By mewpaperarts - Last updated: Thursday, September 10, 2009

I’ve got a really exciting and fun project on deck that I’m feeling quite inspired to begin work on.  Recently, the bride-to-be’s aunt contacted me about creating custom invitations based on the design of her niece’s hand-painted Jane Wilson wedding gown.  These are my favorite kind of assignments!  I love it when a bride is [...]

By mewpaperarts - Last updated: Monday, September 7, 2009

Shoot, these are cute, if I do say so myself!  A little pencil sketch has been turned into a digital illustration that’s laser-printed onto 100% recycled notecards and embellished with just a touch of sparkle.  These might be my new favorite things in the Mew shop.  Go get yourself a set–they’re perfect for every occasion [...]

What’s new at Mew? The Breakers Wedding Invitation Suite

By mewpaperarts - Last updated: Thursday, September 3, 2009

After our recent visit to Kykuit Estate I was reminiscing about our visit to Newport a few years back, when we toured some of the famous mansions, including The Breakers.  Wouldn’t that be an incredible place to have a wedding?
I created this new wedding invitation suite based on the opulence and decadence of the turn [...]

Update on the Web Ripper-Offer

By mewpaperarts - Last updated: Wednesday, September 2, 2009

I’m not really a vindictive person, so I want to be clear that the purpose of these posts is not to humiliate anyone–I will continue not to disclose the identity of the person who stole my web design.  But I really do think it’s important to discuss the gravity of copyright infringement–so your constructive comments [...]
