What’s New Wednesday I’m working on a new set of greeting cards that I think are pretty funny and snarky with little plays on words. The designs are not totally fleshed out but I thought I would show you a sneak peek. What do you think so far, sassy or...
You are probably wondering why anyone would want to make a microwave cookie? Well in our house we had the trifecta of appliance break downs. First our washing machine broke 2 weeks ago and since we had to buy a new one we thought we’d replace our horrible 3 year...
Time to start thinking about holiday cards for clients and customers. We always try to come up with something fun for our clients. We’ve sent out bags of coal with cute hang tags, coasters with funny jokes, custom labeled chocolate bars and a lot more. Not sure...

 Orange is not just for Halloween. Used in home decor it adds a great pop of happy brightness to any room. It’s easy to update for fall with pillows and rugs or you can add orange into your decor all year round. I love the all white kitchen with the orange...

This weekend I was making some gluten/dairy free cookies. Often times they turn into a flat blob and Sunday was no exception. I wanted them to look decent not like pancakes since I was bringing them over to my sister’s for family movie night. My daughter and a...
Time to get spooky with our Halloween Party inspiration board. Start with our scary invitation that you can find on SimplytoImpress.com and use a color palette of black and white, with pops of orange and sparkly glitter accents. We’ve also created this FREE...
I bet ye didn’t know it was Talk Like a Pirate Day tomorrow?! What a freakin’ awesome holiday, way better than secretaries day (sorry hard working secretaries!). I challenge you to only speak and sing in Pirate lingo. To help you out there is an entire...
I am in the mood to do some baking! Every time I look over my Pinterest recipes I have to clean the drool off of my keyboard. Here are a few that I’ve collected and I hope to try out at least one this weekend. Which will it be? Such a difficult decision. Which...
I love that you can now easily order die cut photo cards online. Here’s some inspiration for a couple’s shower in my favorite color combo – red and aqua. My brother and sister-in-law had a photo booth at their wedding and it was the highlight of the...
We often get asked how we got into licensing our artwork. About 8 or 9 years ago a new company came to us and asked if we would design some stationery for their site that they would proof online and print digitally, a new concept. We were corporate graphic designers...
Here are a few of the things that I have been coveting (and drooling over) lately. I need to have a party so that I can serve the Titanic ice cubes those are great! The Custom Family Portrait would make a great Christmas present. And if someone is looking for holiday...
I know it is still summer and school barely started, but at Simon+Kabuki it’s holiday time! Most of our holiday cards have been turned in and launched or they are about to be launched. Here are a few I thought I would share. I love that you can now get...
Last Friday, I moved my son to San Diego State for his first year in college and in the dorms. Yes, I’m really old and now really sad! San Diego is pretty far from us, 8 hours, so there probably won’t be too many weekend trips in our future. He’s...
I recently got a NutriBullet. I bought it at Bed, Bath and Beyond and used a coupon so it was $80 instead of $99. We’ve been needing a new blender for the last few years and I thought I would try this out. I’d heard lots of stories and testimonials about...
Another summer over so quickly. It feels like each year they get shorter and shorter! My kids started on Wednesday and they were not happy campers. Made me yearn for home schooling or no schooling. đ But… we are really excited about our newest collection for...
For the next two weeks the blog will be mostly quiet because I’m heading off to Oahu! I’m so excited. I have a list a mile long of fun things I want to do, see or eat. I might need to move there to get everything done. In reality, I’ll probably only...

In honor of the impending birth of the Royal Baby, I thought I would highlight a collection we designed when Kate and William got married. I love the Liberty floral prints and it was fun that they teamed up with Target. That was a great influence on this collection...
As you may recall from this previous post, I’ve had some issues with our vegetable garden and was trying out a new spot. The larger raised beds are under a tree and get dappled sunlight most of the day. So our vegetables weren’t thriving as well as I would...
Red, white and black are perfect colors for any party. You can dress it up or down. It is the perfect vibrant color combination and makes a bold statement. Invitation Cake Bunting Table Setting Mason...
Since tomorrow is the 4th of July, I thought we should try to remember what our country is founded on. There has been a lot of fighting lately about guns, abortion, religion, gay marriage, etc. but even though we may all have different opinions, they are just...
