2009 has been a busy busy year for us so I am definitely looking forward to 2010! My older brother recently got married in November and I had the honor to take their wedding pictures. I am definitely not a professional photographer but I do love photography. I am learning as I go.
Were in the process of decorating our house and I have been looking through Flickr for some inspirations. Found many cool ideas with what you can do with Ikea shelves. From their Lack to the Expedit collection. Here are some cool ideas I found in Flickr.

We got our wedding pictures back from our photographer last week and I cant wait to share! Chris did an amazing job at capturing our day! Here are some of my favorite shots.
I gathered up some of the pictures my family and friends took with a regular digital camera and I did some editing to it. They did pretty good job.
The day is finally came and all I can say is that it was amazing..all the stress and tears was worth it at the end. Here is just a teaser from our wonderful photographer. Enjoy!!!
Designing…it is definitely a stress reliever!!Here is a new layout I just finished this week but now waiting for client’s approval.
I just got done downloading this cool swirly over at {Pixels & Icecream} not sure what I would use it on just yet but I sure do love swirly brushes!
I can not possibly count how many hours that I put into making these invites but let just say I am glad that it is 90% done. (ok maybe I can..4 days total spent at Office Max. Over 10 hrs designing. 5-10 hours putting it together. 5 hours figure how to type it in Vietnamese, proofreading, researching)
Here is a preview of what they look like. I took these pictures yesterday at Office Max because I was so bored while waiting to get our invites printed and cut. The worker there said our invites are complicated :/ Our theme: Orchids flowers and our colors are magenta, teal and chocolate brown as an accent color.
Here is a picture of our yorkie, Coco that I took the other day. too cute!
It has been crazy few months..I havent been doing a good job with updating my blog. Here is my excuse:
I am getting married less then 3 months and who knew it’s so stressful to plan a wedding all by yourself..well the fiance does help but he’s content with everything. Currently I am in Virginia Beach and the wedding is in South Dakota, which means a lot of googling and phone calls to SD. The wedding will be a traditional Vietnamese wedding, therefore I am clueless on what is needed to be done. I am going to update my blog often with wedding news or design inspirations. Been designing the invites so I will definitely upload those up soon!
First off we found our photographer Chris Reistroffer He does amazing work and I cant wait to be photographed by him in my vietnamese traditional dress (ao dai)
Cool typography invites:)
Thanks for stopping by..until…next week…
I still love this ad!
Were definitely having fun decorating our new home. It feels like home sweet home now. It is not done yet because we are planning on taking out the ugly carpet and putting in laminated wood flooring. That will probably be our summer project or after the wedding. We love our chandelier wall decals!
p.s. we have 3 dogs, therefore they like to jump on our sofa..that’s where the fleece you see on the sofa comes in handy..
They said what??
