I Googled my name tonight testing how my site was coming up on the search and I saw that way back in June you had my First Christmas design on your blog as one of your favorites. That was so sweet, thank you!

Thank you for the link, Jody! That design appears to be different enough from mine to do anything, but it is flattering that she may have gotten her inspiration from me :)

Hi Carrie, I love your work, especially the adorable Tweet Tweet design, which caught my eye right away! I was just browsing Flicker, and came across this invite I thought you might need to be aware of: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mielledesigns/3256923278/. As a fellow designer, I felt like I should give you the heads up! :)
