New Website and a Giveaway!

Hello and welcome to my brand new website!!

This is a long time coming. A long, roller coaster ride, if I'm being honest! (And I'm always being honest around here.) But I am absolutely thrilled with how my new website turned out! This is nowhere near the direction I thought I'd be headed when I started this project over 7 months ago, but through a string of events and creative ebbs and flows, here it is. 

I love it. It's simple, refreshing, and easy to navigate. The biggest thing that bothered me about my previous website and blog is that they were so separate and people who read my blog didn't know I had a website while people who browsed my website didn't know I was blogging. So fixing that issue was my biggest goal with this project - check!

My favorite section is the Featured Galleries section. I feel relieved to finally have an easy and convenient way to keep my portfolio FRESH and in front of perspective clients. My old portfolio hadn't been updated in way too long.  So, yay for another problem solved!

There's a lot I love about my new website and brand!! I have to give a huge thanks to Allie of Allie Creative for working on the design elements for me. The new colors and watercolor feel are all her brainchild. I just put them in to place. I am loving the fresh and airy feel she added to my brand! (See more on my Facebook page.) 

So - let's celebrate!! What better way to launch a new website than to have a giveaway!? Of COURSE!

As you can see, the theme is My Favorite Things... so that's exactly what I'm giving away! Here's all the happy stuff that I'm excited to mail off to one lucky winner: 

1. Personalized stationery set from SilhouetteBlue. I love stationery SO much and since I have banned myself from buying more until I use up at least half of what I already have, I thought I would buy some for YOU!

2. 5 Free Redbox Movie Codes. Who doesn't love a good movie night?! Tommy and I use Redbox all the time so why not share the love?!

3. $10 Starbucks Gift Card. So... secret's out: Starbucks is probably my 3rd or 4th choice of coffee shops around here... I just have a love for local businesses, y'all. But, since a lot of you don't live locally, I thought I'd at least honor my love of coffee with a Starbucks gift card thrown in the giveaway!

6. Keeping up with the coffee theme... also included is an adorable travel coffee mug! I am throwing in the same tall ceramic Coffee Mate mug I use almost daily. Yours will be brand new, obviously. I'm not giving you MINE. 

4. $15 iTunes Gift Card. I'm only a little bit obsessed with my iPhone. I can't be the only one who feels guilty for loading up on paid apps? Seriously, Sunday needed that toddler shapes and colors game! 

5. One year subscription to Clean Eating Magazine. Oh yes, I'm going there. I LOVE this magazine and I think everyone should have it showing up in their mailboxes! Unfortunately I can't afford that, so I'm sticking to just one lucky winner. :)

6. Lavender Essential Oil. I've recently been learning about essential oils and how good they are for our health. Lavender is the most versatile of all the oils, and my personal favorite scent. Of COURSE it's going in my favorite things giveaway! 

7. Glass drinking straws. Okay, I love these things. I have gifted them to three other people and so far they have all been gift failures. I'm determined for someone else to love them as much as I do! Perhaps this will be my last attempt.

8. Small Microfiber Workout Towel. The most absorbent little towel to take along with you to spinning class... you know, the one you were going to come along with me to?

9.  Klean Kanteen Stainless Steel Water Bottle. In your choice of color!

10. Homemade Lavender Bath Salts. Made by yours truly; an all-natural, homemade salt concoction that helps with detoxifying and relaxation.

Squeal!! I LOVE giving gifts!!!
