3 THINGS TUESDAY: TWIPS - NEW SITE

As you might have noticed from the sidebar, I am a member of TWIPS {Twitter Wedding Inspirational Pals} which was founded by an incredible gal, Naomi of ENCHANTED DREAM WEDDINGS & AFFAIRS.  What she and Alicia, of THE CHARITY WEDDING, have created is a community of support and encouragement for all those in the wedding industry.

The theme is simple: give love. Take that little extra step and make a comment on a pal's blog or tweet their amazing inspiration board. All their hard work has resulted in an online platform for TWIPS.  It is like a perfect little clubhouse, but anyone can (and should) go enjoy the goodies and inspiration it provides.

What I like best about this site? I have to be honest that I am more than a little excited for the DIY section, which I just might have a goodie for this week, but my favorite part is that I can see all the members by area of expertise, which has been hard for me to keep track of as TWIPS has grown by leaps and bounds.  I can't wait to find new TWIPS using this great members catalog.

I can tell you the friendships and help that I have gotten from TWIPS has made an incredible difference in my business and my blog.  I am constantly surprised at the talent and kindness that comes from TWIPS.  So, go NOW...enjoy and watch it grow as new submissions keep coming in.  Fellow TWIPS members...don't forget to submit your information to be listed! Are you in the Wedding Industry? You should join!

A BIG WOOHOO YOU DID IT AND IT'S AWESOME for NAOMI and ALICIA!!!

Don't forget to follow #TWIPS on Twitter for fabulous wedding treats!

Rainbow of Inspiration (and a GIVEAWAY!)

I wanted to give you, my lovely readers, a valentine.  To show how much I appreciate your sweet comments, I offer brilliant color boards.  I was stunned by how gorgeous they are, and how incredible the creators are for joining me with this fun little "rainbow" of wedding inspiration.  I sent  these lovely ladies an email, asking them to share their talent for beautiful boards, and they did! For that I am so thankful, each of these lovely ladies is going to be getting some pretty little toppers  in the mail from moi in their color board shades.  For you dear readers...I am giving away a set of toppers to match.  Yep, two of each color I make for my fabulous friends, a total of 14 toppers.  Just leave a comment to win!  But now...let the colors rain down on us...
