I was doing this frame with my buddy Sage today. He had "messed up" and was a bit frustrated. I decided that I "messed up" too and voila! Who knew scribbles could be so stylish? After I finished my scribbling I felt the frame was calling- ok screaming- for glitter. Once the glitter and glue dries on this frame I will be covering it in a 2 part epoxy along with&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KnVTjPtgvno/TkITVqM7IJI/AAAAAAAAANo/RIZlYdQJURU/s1600/glitterFRAME.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" width="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KnVTjPtgvno/TkITVqM7IJI/AAAAAAAAANo/RIZlYdQJURU/s320/glitterFRAME.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;all the other masterpieces made today.

My little friend Tessa is a HUGE fan of drawing and this relief printing project was great for her. She is only 7 and already has quite an art style.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This technique is done by drawing on a piece of styrofoam with a ball point pen and using block printing ink to print. Great for greeting cards, art prints and all ages too!&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EIv8fON6ktc/Ti-rzw1WECI/AAAAAAAAANA/zvAzoX3ldSs/s1600/RELIEFprinting2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" width="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EIv8fON6ktc/Ti-rzw1WECI/AAAAAAAAANA/zvAzoX3ldSs/s320/RELIEFprinting2.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lW-3L-GKYmg/Ti-r0Hn9pLI/AAAAAAAAANI/N8G5Et5fu6Q/s1600/RELIEFprinting3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" width="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lW-3L-GKYmg/Ti-r0Hn9pLI/AAAAAAAAANI/N8G5Et5fu6Q/s320/RELIEFprinting3.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/341079719359434867-485939716293031971?l=www.tomato-tomato.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/feeds/485939716293031971/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=341079719359434867&amp;postID=485939716293031971' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/485939716293031971'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/485939716293031971'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/2011/07/relief-printing.html' title='Relief Printing'/><author><name>Kelly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15142745950174057295</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EIv8fON6ktc/Ti-rzw1WECI/AAAAAAAAANA/zvAzoX3ldSs/s72-c/RELIEFprinting2.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341079719359434867.post-3896627353947434785</id><published>2011-07-26T22:36:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-11T02:25:57.360-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Epoxy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Bottle Caps'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Magnets'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='All ages Craft'/><title type='text'>Magnet Madness!</title><content type='html'>I recently went on vacation for a week up in Canada.

We have made many things especially jewelry and key chains.  Last week was different.  My buddy Raina sat down and said, "I want to make a turtle".  We talked about how she might draw a turtle and different design choices and then she clarified.  "I want to make a turtle that stands up".  (GULP!) I thought to myself. Hmmm...why couldn't we make a turtle that stands up?  TOgether we spent the class testing shrink sizes, making slots and visualizing the outcome.  It was a BLAST and the outcome turned out pretty stinking cute!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Great job RAINA!!&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/--0cJjj-emNA/TfjoDtu-3SI/AAAAAAAAAKA/4E4nltcL5OQ/s1600/SHRINKturtle.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" width="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/--0cJjj-emNA/TfjoDtu-3SI/AAAAAAAAAKA/4E4nltcL5OQ/s320/SHRINKturtle.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/341079719359434867-1895770899663997307?l=www.tomato-tomato.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/feeds/1895770899663997307/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=341079719359434867&amp;postID=1895770899663997307' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/1895770899663997307'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/1895770899663997307'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/2011/06/shrinky-dinks.html' title='Shrinky Dinks!'/><author><name>Kelly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15142745950174057295</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/--0cJjj-emNA/TfjoDtu-3SI/AAAAAAAAAKA/4E4nltcL5OQ/s72-c/SHRINKturtle.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341079719359434867.post-8245329285894768300</id><published>2011-06-01T00:16:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-06-01T00:31:44.667-07:00</updated><title type='text'>NEW SUMMER HOURS!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_CkXJUkpHIw/TeXopib9nBI/AAAAAAAAAJ0/__oIakd1BDo/s1600/RAINBOWpasta.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 252px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_CkXJUkpHIw/TeXopib9nBI/AAAAAAAAAJ0/__oIakd1BDo/s320/RAINBOWpasta.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5613148310903561234" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Summer is coming so that means busy schedules and lots of time outdoors (hopefully).

We've had quite a response to the Living Social deal that went live yesterday. Here's a little FAQ that might help everyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Q. Will the classes run through the summer months?&lt;br /&gt;A. Yes, classes will run through the summer months. We will adjust the schedule to work better for those hours and also consider adding classes as the demand shows us what times are desired.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Q. How does this work?&lt;br /&gt;A. Once you have purchased the Living Social deal you can call Creative Mom Toys to reserve your space in the class time that works best for you. When you arrive for your first class we will exchange your LS voucher for a punch card.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Q. Do I have to go to 4 consecutive classes?&lt;br /&gt;A. No. An additional perk to the LS deal is that you are not committed to using the 4 classes in a row. You can call us 24 hours before a scheduled class to sign up anytime in the next year. (of course we hope to see you sooner than that)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/341079719359434867-8306367738848412306?l=www.tomato-tomato.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/feeds/8306367738848412306/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=341079719359434867&amp;postID=8306367738848412306' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/8306367738848412306'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/8306367738848412306'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/2011/05/living-social.html' title='LIVING SOCIAL!'/><author><name>Kelly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15142745950174057295</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Wfm-KJCCKt0/TdvHiwa7TLI/AAAAAAAAAJs/bGuH2anEdqk/s72-c/Clara2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341079719359434867.post-527404830797649674</id><published>2011-04-11T12:17:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-11T02:32:09.063-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Promotional Craft'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Straws'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pinwheel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Seahawks Craft'/><title type='text'>Seahawks 12K Pinwheels</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6OfSL_VyNvY/TaNVOdt6OtI/AAAAAAAAAJk/QW2GRMumIvQ/s1600/pinwheel2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6OfSL_VyNvY/TaNVOdt6OtI/AAAAAAAAAJk/QW2GRMumIvQ/s320/pinwheel2.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5594408869108005586" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have a new pinwheel die and it didn't sit long before I started putting it to work.

This was a great craft for all ages.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We dripped liquid watercolor on the paper in a small puddle then blew it with a straw to create the branches.  The cherry blossoms were cut tissue paper and glued in the center.

I pulled this tutorial together so you can give it a shot at home if your are feelings crafty in a messy sort of way.

It's so cliche yet SO true.  We go through the haze of being new parents and before we know it we are checking out college applications.  OK, maybe not quite that fast but it really does fly, doesn't it?  These handy keepsakes are a great reminder of the days when our kids little hands could fit in ours.  The process I like to use for this project creates a result that captures all the tiny details. Using play dough as a base and pouring plaster into the mold we can really control the outcome of the plaque. This project is really fun for the kids and the outcome is treasured by the parents.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/341079719359434867-4593530579282336330?l=www.tomato-tomato.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/feeds/4593530579282336330/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=341079719359434867&amp;postID=4593530579282336330' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/4593530579282336330'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/4593530579282336330'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/2011/03/handy-keepsakes.html' title='Handy Keepsakes'/><author><name>Kelly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15142745950174057295</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-STKDqt7CONQ/TYbXAeOgspI/AAAAAAAAAJM/17EJMMqlKME/s72-c/handprint.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341079719359434867.post-7964023978822639701</id><published>2011-03-18T10:17:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-18T10:31:14.236-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Finger Puppets</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-e18hGKZdlrA/TYOWb1tK57I/AAAAAAAAAJE/GsCm3c1hYDI/s1600/FINGERpups.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-e18hGKZdlrA/TYOWb1tK57I/AAAAAAAAAJE/GsCm3c1hYDI/s320/FINGERpups.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5585473367886718898" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really try to have craft projects that have a residual value.  Something that the kids can create and continue to play with or enjoy once it's dry. Finger puppets have become a favorite for all my crafty kids. This is a project that is easy for the youngest of crafters and imaginative for the oldest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I buy fleece gloves from the $1 store and cut the fingers off to create the base for the puppets.  You can theme them for holidays or just use up some of your random collage items you might have available. Use tacky glue for the best results and quickest dry time.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/341079719359434867-7964023978822639701?l=www.tomato-tomato.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/feeds/7964023978822639701/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=341079719359434867&amp;postID=7964023978822639701' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/7964023978822639701'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/7964023978822639701'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/2011/03/finger-puppets.html' title='Finger Puppets'/><author><name>Kelly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15142745950174057295</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-e18hGKZdlrA/TYOWb1tK57I/AAAAAAAAAJE/GsCm3c1hYDI/s72-c/FINGERpups.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341079719359434867.post-1802252775763536823</id><published>2011-03-16T22:04:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-16T22:09:38.385-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Here Bunny, Bunny</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Xgv7XJ8g7EE/TYGXe1zRWxI/AAAAAAAAAI8/tacvwWytM5s/s1600/EASTERegg.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 202px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Xgv7XJ8g7EE/TYGXe1zRWxI/AAAAAAAAAI8/tacvwWytM5s/s320/EASTERegg.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584911569010121490" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I realize it's a bit early to start thinking about Easter.

Luckily I have my friend Jackie who loves shoes so she supplied all the boxes for the class. Thanks Jackie!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I made a few edits to the original recipe of this craft. First we wrapped the boxes in white butcher-like paper then cut the holes for their feet. The kids (mostly 2 years old) painted their boxes with the bingo paint daubers and added collage items for extra detail. The toe nails are sponges cut into triangle shapes. (If you buy new sponges for this be sure to let them dry out. Damp sponges don't stick or cut very well.) This craft took about 45 minutes an dried quickly. I'm already waiting for Jackie to buy more shoes so we can do it again.

Most recently my friend gave me GIANT coffee filters!  Seriously, GIANT coffee filters! I could hardly wait to use them. We folded them up as if we were going to tie dye them and used liquid water color to drip on them.  The finished effect had a tie dyed pattern and the kids who loaded theirs up with paint looked even better! For the body we wrapped pipe cleaners around a straw.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/341079719359434867-900744224542147968?l=www.tomato-tomato.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/feeds/900744224542147968/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=341079719359434867&amp;postID=900744224542147968' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/900744224542147968'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/900744224542147968'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/2011/03/my-oh-butterfly.html' title='My OH Butterfly!'/><author><name>Kelly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15142745950174057295</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Zwgk6us_lzM/TXftfXNp4PI/AAAAAAAAAIs/Wq9NMdXA374/s72-c/photo%2B%252877%2529.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341079719359434867.post-828829221544392870</id><published>2011-03-04T21:26:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-03-04T21:33:31.711-08:00</updated><title type='text'>First Saturday Arts &amp; Crafts!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gJWFGUE5fss/TXHLI2whCrI/AAAAAAAAAIk/4UsUCYLHOU0/s1600/FIRSTsat.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 246px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gJWFGUE5fss/TXHLI2whCrI/AAAAAAAAAIk/4UsUCYLHOU0/s320/FIRSTsat.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5580464766287153842" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tomorrow is our First Saturday Arts &amp; Crafts. Each month on the first Saturday we will be having some fun with the crafts offered in the store.  This month our craft is Shrinky Dinks. Yes! The same shrinky dinks you enjoyed as a kid.  Only now they come in big fancy kits (some small too) and pre-printed. I like to push the limits a bit and we will be making a 3 dimensional bird in the creative space. The cost is only $5 per crafter. If making a bird leaves you wanting more, there are plenty of choices to take home with you too!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/341079719359434867-828829221544392870?l=www.tomato-tomato.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/feeds/828829221544392870/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=341079719359434867&amp;postID=828829221544392870' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/828829221544392870'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/828829221544392870'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/2011/03/first-saturday-arts-crafts.html' title='First Saturday Arts &amp; Crafts!'/><author><name>Kelly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15142745950174057295</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gJWFGUE5fss/TXHLI2whCrI/AAAAAAAAAIk/4UsUCYLHOU0/s72-c/FIRSTsat.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341079719359434867.post-7523264401563297071</id><published>2011-03-03T20:00:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-03-03T20:23:57.566-08:00</updated><title type='text'>New and Exciting!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3iTutof--yQ/TXBoXL0IszI/AAAAAAAAAIc/XqMorOfsRjI/s1600/CMT%2BLogo.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 279px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3iTutof--yQ/TXBoXL0IszI/AAAAAAAAAIc/XqMorOfsRjI/s320/CMT%2BLogo.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5580074685829788466" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am slightly obsessed with all things creative.

I love the creative challenge that new clients bring to me and it is rewarding to be able to help them grow their business all while getting to jump into new things for myself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been adding new equipment and can offer many services directly. Many times I surprise my clients when I tell them some of my capabilities. Although I would like to think that my offering of internal services is an advantage it really just comes down to me really,really liking print equipment. Some call it "asset building". I might refer to it as "collecting" but the term my mother might call it is "hoarding". Don't worry though. No missing cats in this house. Just a lot of creative possibilities!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/341079719359434867-6063417642401578909?l=www.tomato-tomato.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/feeds/6063417642401578909/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=341079719359434867&amp;postID=6063417642401578909' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/6063417642401578909'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/6063417642401578909'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/2010/12/poor-poor-forgotten-blog.html' title='Poor, poor forgotten blog'/><author><name>Kelly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15142745950174057295</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341079719359434867.post-1093164341770301312</id><published>2009-04-18T10:52:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-05T08:30:41.416-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/341079719359434867-1093164341770301312?l=www.tomato-tomato.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/feeds/1093164341770301312/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=341079719359434867&amp;postID=1093164341770301312' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/1093164341770301312'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/1093164341770301312'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/2009/04/bad-blogger.html' title=''/><author><name>Kelly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15142745950174057295</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341079719359434867.post-3821304749818631868</id><published>2008-08-28T21:43:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-28T21:54:18.234-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Groomzilla</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/SLeA8lRWn2I/AAAAAAAAAEc/AN4h0x1uUtw/s1600-h/drory3.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/SLeA8lRWn2I/AAAAAAAAAEc/AN4h0x1uUtw/s400/drory3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5239798469754265442" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We've all heard of Bridezilla.  Well, Groomzilla is what you get when you design a wedding invitation for a groom that is also in the creative industry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Drory and Marcee were great to work with and I teased Drory about being "Groomzilla".  He had very defined ideas and knew what he wanted...and what he didn't want.  I think the final design is really solid and suited Marcee and Drory's wine themed wedding perfectly. (Wine themed but not too grape like and not too vine like as requested by groomzilla himself)  Drory had his hand in the graphics and also used his skills to draw up the map for the direction card. I must say, Drory draws a mean map.  You're hired for maps Drory!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This wrap design has been my answer to the ever-so-popular pocket fold.  It's a great way to be able to customize the actual wrap and keep all the important bits and pieces where they belong too.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/341079719359434867-3821304749818631868?l=www.tomato-tomato.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/feeds/3821304749818631868/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=341079719359434867&amp;postID=3821304749818631868' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/3821304749818631868'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/3821304749818631868'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/2008/08/groomzilla.html' title='Groomzilla'/><author><name>Kelly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15142745950174057295</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/SLeA8lRWn2I/AAAAAAAAAEc/AN4h0x1uUtw/s72-c/drory3.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341079719359434867.post-6161431839807967434</id><published>2008-08-28T21:11:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-28T21:20:40.602-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Not just invites...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/SLd5EPcEtyI/AAAAAAAAAD8/bxytUxZxnwA/s1600-h/sandy.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/SLd5EPcEtyI/AAAAAAAAAD8/bxytUxZxnwA/s320/sandy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5239789805239580450" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been busy,busy, busy with wedding season and things are finally slowing down a bit since all my brides and grooms are off celebrating their new lives together.  That makes more time for the clients I have that aren't in the market for invitations.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This business card was for Sandy Taylor.  She is a personal trainer and needed some marketing pieces for her new and quickly growing client base.  Sandy specializes in training women and does private workout sessions in your home. She wanted her pieces to have a strong design but also be somewhat feminine.  I even hired Sandy to whip me into shape.

This photo doesn't quite do their wedding invitations justice but I have to say that they were REALLY fun to do!  Jake knew he wanted something to hold everything together and Natalie had an idea of the graphic style they were looking for.  All the pieces came together and I was able to design a small pocket to hold everything together and fit into a standard A2 envelope.  I really like the smaller size and look forward to playing with the pocket concept more.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/341079719359434867-2907970137767176010?l=www.tomato-tomato.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/feeds/2907970137767176010/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=341079719359434867&amp;postID=2907970137767176010' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/2907970137767176010'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/2907970137767176010'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/2008/03/natalie-jake.html' title='Natalie &amp; Jake'/><author><name>Kelly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15142745950174057295</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/SLeB2lf_B3I/AAAAAAAAAEk/8d1eFIYzZEs/s72-c/natNjake.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341079719359434867.post-1935419785715142429</id><published>2008-03-09T22:23:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-10T04:43:03.770-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Baby Shower Favors</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/R9TGnRsDxAI/AAAAAAAAACs/uZRJcScX1D8/s1600-h/sugarcookies.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/R9TGnRsDxAI/AAAAAAAAACs/uZRJcScX1D8/s320/sugarcookies.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5175980249820939266" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since Ellie (the dog) is an important member of the family we decided that it was important that she was included in the baby shower celebration.  All of the shower favors were sugar cookies shaped like dog bones with a topper stating Ellie's appreciation. Of course it was signed "Big Sis".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just a side note.

As a big fan of refrigerator magnets I always tend to agree that sending out magnets is a great idea. I did these magnets for Brooke and Kyle attached to a card announcing their date and accommodation info.  Brooke also chose to do a matching postcard (inset).  It was fun to do something as casual as a magnet but spicing it up a bit by using some specialty stock and some Victorian inspired graphics.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/341079719359434867-4081544856231297497?l=www.tomato-tomato.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/feeds/4081544856231297497/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=341079719359434867&amp;postID=4081544856231297497' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/4081544856231297497'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/4081544856231297497'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/2008/03/save-date.html' title='Save-the-Date'/><author><name>Kelly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15142745950174057295</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/R9TCbRsDw_I/AAAAAAAAACk/OGzYxlm6Aog/s72-c/BROOKEkyle.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341079719359434867.post-8199857756805769474</id><published>2008-01-13T23:23:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-10T04:43:04.220-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Ravishing Radish</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/R4sOMDMTrtI/AAAAAAAAACc/-0kV50yTQLk/s1600-h/rr-chrome-blu-off_03.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/R4sOMDMTrtI/AAAAAAAAACc/-0kV50yTQLk/s320/rr-chrome-blu-off_03.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5155229798633811666" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The awesome folks at Ravishing Radish Catering have invited me to display my work at their monthly tasting.

You can make it fit a really tight budget or you can go a little crazy and spend,spend, SPEND!  The best way to work with me on favor packaging is to decide what you would like to give as your favor and decide on a budget.  From there we will chat about a few wedding details and I can work up some packaging solutions for you. If you already have some packaging in mind but just want a custom designed label to spice it up a bit I do that too!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your options for packaging and labels are not limited to the samples shown here.  These are just to get your gears turnin'.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/341079719359434867-5069464198393638531?l=www.tomato-tomato.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/feeds/5069464198393638531/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=341079719359434867&amp;postID=5069464198393638531' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/5069464198393638531'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/5069464198393638531'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/2008/01/favor-packaging-labels.html' title='Favor Packaging &amp; Labels'/><author><name>Kelly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15142745950174057295</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/R4R4bTMTrrI/AAAAAAAAACM/GjHwmpFfD4A/s72-c/SWSfavors.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341079719359434867.post-4472186153637193214</id><published>2008-01-06T23:34:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-10T04:43:04.760-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Wedding Show- Day 2</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/R4HWMjMTrqI/AAAAAAAAACE/8Nwx-qqIL9Q/s1600-h/foot_spa.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/R4HWMjMTrqI/AAAAAAAAACE/8Nwx-qqIL9Q/s320/foot_spa.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5152634959782194850" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WOW!

My favorite was to see some of the brides back again today after doing the show yesterday too! You are SUPER troopers!  I'm already getting a lot of inquiries from all of you so I will be in touch as I work my way through the e-mails (and soak my feet!).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy Planning!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS I haven't forgotten about updated samples from the show.

The holidays are coming in no time and right after them is the Seattle Wedding Show! (January 5-6)  This will be my first time showing at the Seattle Wedding Show.  I've mostly stuck to smaller venues that are not specific to the wedding industry.  I am really looking forward to the experience of 10,000 people all planning weddings.  Some call me "crazy" but I prefer to think of it as "adventurous".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I designed these magnets as a free give-away at my booth.

There was no holding back on details for this happy couple!  When I met with Matt and Jamie they had some very strong design elements they wanted to incorporate into their invitations.  Matt had created an illustration of the two of them and he had also brought me the really cool (yet spooky) scroll graphic. I LOVED it all!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I did a tonal spider web graphic on the front with the couple illustration.  On the inside I added the spider web graphic behind the text and a really ornate font was chosen for the "RSVP" to compliment the script text.  All these elements plus a few extra spooky details worked like a charm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jamie and Matt also had magnets designed for wedding favors.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/341079719359434867-3590895434204009324?l=www.tomato-tomato.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/feeds/3590895434204009324/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=341079719359434867&amp;postID=3590895434204009324' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/3590895434204009324'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/341079719359434867/posts/default/3590895434204009324'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.tomato-tomato.com/2007/09/happy-halloween.html' title='Happy Halloween!'/><author><name>Kelly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15142745950174057295</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/RvdnQswR_9I/AAAAAAAAABM/ZoINSKqfFOE/s72-c/JAMIEblog.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341079719359434867.post-2322468662224751452</id><published>2007-09-23T16:23:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-10T04:43:05.884-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Wine Label</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/RvrTwMwSAAI/AAAAAAAAABk/xKjDLRG6j04/s1600-h/ET+Wiine+Label.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_G10Yrk6wtYk/RvrTwMwSAAI/AAAAAAAAABk/xKjDLRG6j04/s320/ET+Wiine+Label.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5114633151843532802" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's the wine label that was designed to match Ellen and Todd's invites.

I met with Ellen and she had a great color palette for her big day (rich red and light blue) and she had mentioned that she was having orchids for the ceremony. With her color palette, some examples of things she liked and the mention of orchids my creative juices were brewing. Once I got the illustration of the orchid hammered out things really flowed together. I had a lot of fun designing several coordinating pieces in addition to the invitations. We did save-the-dates, announcements, programs and wine labels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The bottom left corner shows the back of the invite and RSVP.
