Wordsmith

Jason Mraz is a word genius. For example:
And timing's everything, and this time there's plenty I am balancing, Careful and steady, And reveling in energy that everyone's emitting Well, I don't wanna wait no more Oh, I wanna celebrate the whole world I'm gonna make it mine Oh, yes, I'm following your joy

Pat Green knows his stuff too

Baby's just a little bit tired of the city, Billboards and bullshit got her down, Seem like you need a little hill country, A little back roads driving, little bit of the old top down, Yeah, everybody gotta get away sometime, Forget about yourself for awhile, Seems to me that all you need is a ragtop car to ride with me, Ok, alright, just might get a little high tonight, Ok, alright, carry on.

I think I hold my own. We've had some tricky wording to figure out for invitations that I have made for showers this week and they turned out great. (Note: I am still perfecting close-up photos for my blog. Any hints would be appreciated.)

First project: Shower invitations for Kenneth and Melinda's couple shower. They didn't want a traditional shower with gift opening (plus they are moving to California) so we needed to ask for gift cards. Erica helped solve that dilemma.

- If you would like to bring a gift, the couple would greatly appreciate gift cards as they prepare for their big move to California.

Curry and Midnight papers, snaps, envelopes and labels from Paper Source.


Second project: Shower invitations for Kate's sister-in-law. She's coming in from Arizona and was given 75 little onesies! We printed a long detailed instruction on the back so people would know how to help.

- To help the mom-to-be on her return trip to Arizona, please bring suitcase-friendly gifts. And Baby Girl O’Hara is set with a fashionable newborn wardrobe - larger sizes much appreciated! (written with help from Kate)

Strawberry and Leaf papers, snaps, envelopes and labels from Paper Source.


Belle and Bella supervised the assembly. Two really tired dogs and forty invitations later, I think I'm holding my own as a wordsmith. If I could sing on key, I could give Jason Mraz and Pat Green a run for their money.

Also: Idol Update. I think Lil or Scott have to go. Anoop will stay in because his college won the National Championship.
