ACK!

Sorry it has been 2348329483924 days!! (but really... not)

Did you know that planning your own wedding is RIDICULOUS?! Oh,... you did? Ok then. Just checking. : )

So how has everyone been? 

In 2 days I have some VERY VERY exciting news! 

2 days!

That's it!

And I cannot wait to tell you all about it!

But in the meantime... here are some pictures from a wedding-errand-adventure!

In St. Louis, MO there is a wholesale flower district on LaSalle Street. This means there is a floral design academy (I would LOVE to go someday!), floral supplies, every decoration you can imagine, and BIG coolers of endless flowers upon flowers... 

It pretty much is the greatest smell you can ever smell.

Just wanted to share God's beauty!

I'll be back in 2 days! : D *bounces*

Garage Sale!

This past weekend I hosted my very first garage sale!

What a simple and easy (and HOT!) way to make some monies!

A few of my friends went above and beyond donating tables and fabulous goods to help me out!

With their help and people's generosity I was able to raise a few hundred more dollars for my trip to Tokyo in december.

The little bro and I, beating the heat with some Minute Made Treats!

I PROMISE PROMISE PROMISE I will be back soon with some new art and other goodies!

Love, Amy

Drawgasmic!!!

I must apologize - time got away from me again!

While I've been gone I've done a number of things...

Eaten delicious chocolate ganache..

Doodled some new doodles...

Made myself a pretty purple bow...

And went to this little shindig!

DRAWGASMIC was sooo much fun! 

There was live art, drinks, shopping, and of course, the gallery show!

Me next to my piece!

Ta-da!

You can pre-order the book here! 

Now I am off to nurse this migraine... ow.

Blackberry Picking Adventures! Part 1

I say part 1, because I'm sure we will be back before the end of the summer. It's just too good to not go back!

You see, we have a park nestled behind a neighborhood called Rock Springs. It looks like this:

And during the summer months, along the main trail, are.....BLACKBERRIES! : D

...see?

They are such pretty little things.

Here is Adam, gettin it done. : )

Evidence.

Shameless opportunity to show off the bling.

"Oh, hey honey you have something on your lip..let me get that..."

"I do?"

(I do not like sneaky fiances)

The perfect ending to our day. How beautiful is this dragonfly?

Our blackberry shenanigans inspired this:

Go buy it up in my etsy shop! 

Until next time!
