I’ve been nominated!! See my lovely shiny blog button 🙂 
Thank you to anyone who nominated me. I haven’t given this little blog much attention in the past while and I really didn’t expect to be nominated at all. It has galvanized myself into action to actually commit to blogging a bit more. I had been thinking about posting more regularly for a while, so this is a nice bit of synchronicity (also, I find I get more than a little lazy and days stretch to weeks in between blogposts. As I’m sure you have noticed!!) I’m hoping this isn’t going to be a nice burst of activity around here… And then quiet again!
Logos… A long time in the making… I’ve been thinking about a new logo for… Oh, about three years. I needed it for new business cards, tags, my Facebook page, blog, cards… Everything in fact. So one night, after a few false attempts, I sat down and drew it out, and ta-dah! Here it is, with my nifty business cards (I can also use them as tags), and the cutest stickers for the back of the clear sleeve they are packed in. All thanks to my sister, Blaithin who works in my family’s print business, dataprint.ie. I’m so pleased!! 
And while I’m talking about logos, here is a logo design I recently painted for an online friend of mine, Amy, who is a Childbirth Educator. Her business is called Natal Gazing (isn’t that such a brilliant name?) You can find Amy here!
All of it is just gorgeous! So thrilled your cards are becoming a reality. You have so much talent xx
Gorgeous. Love ‘Natal Gazing’. Love it.
Thanks Laura! Amy was brilliant because she had a very clear idea so I just did the painting 🙂
Thanks Sadhbh! And it is I. Great thanks to YOU with all your wonderful, generous advice that I have got this far xxx
Oh Emily the cards are beautiful, and the logo – well done – delighted for you!
Gorgeous logo…love it. And you fully deserve your nomination, your blog is inspiring x
Thanks Office Mum! X
Thanks Elizabeth! It might be far more inspiring if I blogged a bit more 😀
Nominations well deserved, no doubt about that. Emily, I recognised your work when I saw the Natal Gazing logo, it is fab. And I love your own logo and the newness and crispness of your cards and stuff. A big well done to you getting so much done and to the highest standard. x
Thanks Joanna, I was so pleased with the Natal Gazing, but Amy was so clear in what she wanted, so it was a pleasure! And congrats to you on YOUR blog award nomination 🙂
