happy holidays!

happy holidays from d + p! we hope everyone had a fabulous christmas with their families + loved ones. we even were blessed with a cozy white christmas eve. the portrait above was illustrated by my amazing biz partner, the other loveleigh, cheyenne panzeter. i wanted to shake up our holiday card this year! keep a look out for the design on loveleigh's blog!

we just caught up on this week's so you think you can dance last night. i just love me some stacey tookey + dave scott.

step up.

this is why i love to dance...

hi again.

(finally!) i can't believe this is a saturday where we have no plans. none. a very rare occasion. after a lovely night with friends kath, dan + reagan, spent this relaxing morning with pat drinking coffee, catching up on my fave blogs + even some karate kid. the past few months have been filled with work, gardening, fixing up the house, working on our loveleigh studio, dance recitals, the italian market festival, lots of invitations, 1st trip to the national stationery show + some bbqs. quite the busy start to the summer...

tomorrow my mom and i are heading to the beach for a very much needed mother-daughter day of relaxing in the sun!

flyers win!

this goes out to the flyers. amazing win last night!

happy birthday nicole.

happy birthday nicole. we miss you so, so much. hope you are rockin out to bon jovi, eating a cheeseburger and having mini chocolate éclairs (that you won't share with anyone else) for dessert. we love you. we know you are watching over us all. happy, happy birthday. 

this is your life.

happy friday. thanks to the wonders of pinterest, i came across this wonderful website, holstee, and beautiful print of the holstee manifesto designed by artist rachael beresh. this manifesto was written by the founders of the company after they quit their jobs to dive head first into starting their own business in the middle of the recession in may of 2009.

it was about what they wanted from life and how to create a company that breathes that passion into the world everyday. it was a reminder of what we live for. the result became known as the holstee manifesto. { from the holstee website }

i can't wait to purchase this beautiful letterpress print. i hope this inspires everyone to "go out and start creating" and to "live your dream and share your passion."

gotye.

i have been totally obsessed with this song somebody that i used to know (featuring kimbra) from gotye's new album, making mirrors for the past few weeks. loving the paint in the video!

another reason to love target.

fell in love with target's color changes everything ad during the grammy awards this past weekend. the song is precious. allouette by the delta rhythm boys.



also found this one during my search from a few years back. every colour you can dream...love! amazing stop motion. the song is everyone and everything by the boys and girls featuring annabel feeney.

your love.
