About Designkandy

I love beautiful design and I am inspired by all things vintage and pretty. I discovered my passion for stationery design while creating my own wedding invitations which grew into my custom design studio and online stationery store based in Santa Monica. Minted is a great inspiration as it encourages me to grow as a designer and deliver my best work possible while finding new ways to develop my craft. I am proud to be a part if this immensely talented and supportive community!

Thanks Simone, I decided to make the almond chocolate oval too, to match the shape of the almond.

Ich möchte unbedingt mal nach San Francisco und dann die Küste runter fahren nach Los Angeles. Also wer weiß, vielleicht besuche ich Dich wirklich mal :-) Ich würde gerne mal Deine Geschichte hören, wie es Dir so ging am Anfang in den USA. Außerdem scheint Dein Leben sehr spannend zu sein, ich habe mir Deine tollen Fotos auf facebook angesehen :-) LG Petra

Hallo Simone, vielen Dank für Deine Nachricht :-) Deine Designs waren mir auch schon sehr positiv aufgefallen, ich finde sie ganz toll. Ich beneide Dich um Santa Monica, hier bei uns ist es so kalt und nass, ich wünschte ich wäre auch in Kalifornien :-). Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland Petra

Thanks for the heads up Simone! I emailed Minted too, so we'll see what happens. It's unfortunate tho that things like this still pop up from time to time.

Thanks so much for the comment Simone! I just hopped over to your site and I had to come tell you I love your designs. I love vintage travel & advertising, so you had me with that...your poster designs are fabulous, and such a great idea! But passports, boarding passes, luggage tags ...how clever is that? Wow, love it. I'm pretty new here myself, but I'm happy to be the first to welcome you to Minted!
