I am a huge fan of Minted! I use them every year for my Christmas cards.

This year I chose the Merry Always card and I love how it turned out. I filled the back of the card with some of my favorite instagram photos (@kirstenkrason) from the past year so our friends and family can see what we've been up to.

One of my favorite things about using Minted is that they will address your envelopes for you so I no longer have to hand write them out on each envelope! They also have so many great options to choose from! Plus you have to check out all of their shape and color options.

Minted is giving away a $200 gift credit for you to get some Holiday cards of your own! Winner will be announced on Monday.

Maxi-Cosi Mico AP Car Seat Giveaway

I am excited to team up with Maxi-Cosi to review and giveaway one of their new Mico AP car seats today! 

I love a lot of of things about this car seat but my very favorite feature has to be how light weight this car seat is. At only 8.6 lbs the Maxi-Cosi Mico AP is the lightest premium car seat in the market! 

My sweet Jane has always been in the 90th percentile for weight so having a light car seat makes SUCH a difference for us. The seat transfers easily from the base in and out of our car. 

I also love that the patented Air Protect cushion system provides additional support around Jane's head.  The flip-out canopy visor offers extra UV protection to keep Janey away from the sun. 

The Maxi-Cosi AP comes in a wide range of colors. The black frames retail for $199.99 and white frame: $210.00. For more information visit www.maxi-cosi.com.

My Christmas Cards and a Minted Giveaway!

For the past two years we've used Minted for our Christmas cards and I'm always thrilled with how they turn out. They offered to sponsor some cards for us this year and I gladly jumped at the opportunity to pick out a card. They truly have the worlds best selection of Christmas cards. I had such a hard time deciding. Here are a few of my favorites:

Dotted Noel Holiday Card

Chalk Holiday Card

Merry Script Holiday Card

Sprinkles Holiday Photo Card

At the Beach Holiday Card

Merry and Bright Sprinkles Holiday Card

I ended up choosing the Peace Love and Joy Branches card for our card this year. 

I'll be honest this year we haven't had time to snap any family pictures to use for our card. Luckily Jylare got a family picture of us during Jane's newborn photo-shoot that we could use. 

One of my favorite things about Minted's cards is that you can print your greeting right on the back so you don't have too many papers floating around in your envelop. Plus I was able to add a few more pictures. 

A new thing that Minted has just started offering is a free envelop addressing service.

You can input your addresses and Minted will add them right onto your envelopes which means way less work for you! 

One lucky 6th Street Design School reader will win a credit for $200 to Minted for their own Holiday cards!! 

To enter this giveaway just leave a comment on this post. Please make sure you leave your email so I can contact you if you win.

Take a look at some of my favorite pieces from her shop.

Love these ones for the Holidays.  The best part of her earrings in my opinion is that they are all made to be super light-weight. I hate heavy earrings that drag down my earlobes all day. Each piece is also one-of-a-kind so you can really standout when you wear a Meredith Jackson design.

Greatest Adventure 

Birthday Invitation

Recently they contacted me about trying out some art for Jett's new room (which is almost done by the way!).  They have an incredible selection of great kid's art.  It was really hard to narrow down what I wanted so I was happy to find out about their new pin board tool. You can make your own pin boards as part of their site and bookmark the prints that you like. 

This is the inspiration board I created for Jett's room. 

You can see all of my boards here. 

I ended up choosing this Alphabet in the Round print. 

It looks amazing in his room. I can't wait to show you pictures! Plus he has such a fun time naming off all the things on it. 

Right now Minted is offering 15% off all  baby and kids (art prints, birthday party invites, birth announcements etc.) through July 30th. So if you are thinking about buying anything now is the time! Just use the code SUMMERFUN.

Meet my Intern Kayley

I have been tremendously lucky to have worked with some fantastic interns. I seriously don't know how I could do what I do without help and these girls have been beyond helpful. I'm excited to introduce my intern Kayley to you! 

We've been working together since last August. The picture on the left is her helping my client at a meeting and the picture on the right was the day I met her at the yard sale Caitlin Creer, Caitlin Wilson and I had last summer. 

I would love it if you would show her some love and check out her blog. She is having a great giveaway this week on her blog so make sure you check it out. And while you are there check out this nursery she just helped her sister with. It's so cute!

Jett's New Headboard

Thank you all SO much for your nice comments about morning sickness. I read each and everyone of them. I think even just having all that support helped the most! I switched my Zofran prescription to the melt in your mouth kind and so far I'm feeling a little better. 

With a new baby on the way I'm more motivated to get Jett's bedroom done. Guess what got delivered over the weekend!

His new headboard! I had Brian from Rocky Mountain Upholstery make it and he did an incredible job. Now as soon as I get some energy back I'll hopefully get this room finished! 

And in other news I picked a winner for the Caitlin Wilson Giveaway. 

Congrats to Lisa! 

Thanks to everyone who entered!
