The best part is that you can customize it to your heart’s desire with quotes, city names or streets, song lyrics, etc. Share what you create by posting an image on Instagram and tagging me @likehearted. Can’t wait to see what you all come up with!

I’m really old school when it comes to thank you notes. I don’t think anything beats getting a letter in the mail. In this week’s tutorial, I’ll teach you how to make personalized stationary. My favorite place to shop for the supplies is Papersource, they have a wide range of blank cards and envelopes in a so many different colors. I would say my personal brand is classic with a touch of edge, so I go for black envelopes and white flat note cards. What’s represents your personal brand?
There is some major baby fever right now! I have eight friends due by the end of the year, that means tons of baby showers in my future. I always like to get something off of the registry and also include something personalized. This week I’ll show you how to create simple artwork for the saying “I Love You to the Moon & Back.”

I love hosting dinner parties but with food allergies on the rise it can often create a challenge for the host and the guest (I know from experience). If you are unsure, it’s not uncommon to ask your guests ahead of time if their diets have changed. Your guests will appreciate you going the extra mile to make them feel welcomed in your home. Check out my tutorial video on ways you can easily label the food for guests who have allergies. For more entertaining tips, subscribe to the Likeheared channel: http://www.youtube.com/iamlikehearted

My best friend since 3rd grade is getting married in April and I have the absolute pleasure of being her maid of honor. We are going to Austin, TX for the bachelorette party and I couldn’t be more excited. First order of business in planning the bachelorette weekend is the invitations. I wanted to do something personalize and custom to the Texas theme. I also included “next steps” on the back of the invite which I printed on white stock paper, cut down to size and secured with the Washi tape. I’m no graphic artist but I really love the way they turned out!
Materials:
1. Paper Bag Foil Printable Invitations – papersource (best part is that Papersource provides a downloadable word document template)
2. Washi Tape – I found this one at Target
3. A7 Paper Bag Envelopes – papersource
4. Downloaded new fonts “Creampuff” and “DS Dots” from searchfreefonts.com
