Before my life as a wife, mom and stationery designer, I spent 10 years in newspaper design. My work tends to be sweet and simple, and I love when I can throw in a spark of personality or humor. I also love the creative outlet and community that Minted is, and I’m so happy to be a part of it.

Hi Lea, Thanks so much for letting me know that my design was similar to someone else's. I have removed it, but if its not too much trouble could you share the link or design with me? I wasn't able to find it on Minted. Thanks so much. Appreciate it !
Thanks for the congrats Lea! 100 wins has been a goal for some time now and I was beginning to wonder if I’d ever get there. I certainly appreciate you taking the time to notice and send a note! Now if only I could get to Y (I won’t even pretend that K is achievable). One can dream.

OMG! Too funny! I love yours so much better, love the retro look! I'm happy to take my down if you think it's too similar :)
Hi Leah, thank you for the feedback on my fine line submission. I did a new poll with the different caps options, I'd love to hear which one you like best? Rebecca
Lea! Thank you so much for notifying me of my foil blunder
Thank you so much for your comment. I am just preparing a poll for different versions. Isn't it night time were you live?
Thanks so much for your comment on my 'Nice List Adjacent' - I was actually about to pull the design until I saw your comment b/c my husband and mom both said 'nice....I don't get it?' haha. I consider you the funny card master so if it earned your laugh then it stays ;)
Thanks for the white foil suggestion! That was my original intent but it looked greenish-gray when I placed it.... :-P Wonder if others are struggling with too. Maybe I'll try another route. Thank you for the input!
Thank you for the tip/rules alert, Lea! I'm pretty new to Minted and am still trying to figure everything out :)
Hi Lea, Thank you for correcting me. I am terrible at Grammar :( Wish you all the best in the challenges :)
Thank you so much for your dear words !! I am shook. I got that email while waiting to pick up my son and almost got sent to principal’s office for holding back the line :):) Thank you sweet lady !

Thanks Lea for your comment on my frosted leaves, I really appreciate it :) you have some gorgeous entries as always!
Bahahaha - best comment ever!! Thanks Lea :)
Hi Lea. Thanks for spotting that something looked off-center in my Luxe design, I agree. But I checked and everything was aligned correctly. I just outlined all the type and made a editable copy of it on the side because it never looks right unless you do that somehow ;-) Thank you for the heads up!
Hi Lean, thanks for your help with the font on my submission a week or so ago. When I changed out the "foil font" I realized the type was too big. I'd love your opinion on my revised design. Thanks!
Lea! I played with the GG bridge one as you suggested =) pop by and let me know what you think! I am now stalking your submissions!!!!!!
Lea, thanks for your help with my submission earlier! I appreciate you!
Hi Lea, such pretty work!
Thank you for your comment Lea! I did not know that about the custom elements and I am SO GLAD you told me before I submitted more!
Thanks for your suggestion, Lea! The reception line was a little too loud, thanks for pointing it out for me.
Hi Lea, thanks so much for your kind comment on my ‘Ginkgo’ wedding submission. It means a lot me. Best of luck to you!
Lea, thanks so much for helping out on my polls! I meant to thank you the other day for suggesting trying black foil for Stately Floral, and now I'm dying (even more) to get the new kit! x
Oh thank you so much, Lea! I appreciate the encouraging words since I wasn’t sure if this one was coming across as too old-fashioned. XO
Hi Lea, thanks for leaving valuable feedback on my design 'photographed'. i may just have another idea or two with lines that i will try. xx
Hi Lea! Thanks for your feedback on my wedding invite "Day in the Sun". See what your seeing now ;) Lovin your graduation submissions!
Thanks! I fixed it! Low expectations for that one, but who knows???
Thanks Lea! By the way I love your mustard entry; just haven't had a chance to like it yet. But I will!! Happy New Year!
Thank you for the helpful note about my design Teak! It does look much better.

Hi Lea - thank you so much for your like and support on "ribbons" and good luck in these challenges - Amanda
Jeez Lea did I forget to put it in the voting poll? It's B. I usually like an uneven effect but squint at this one and see what you think.
Always fun to see you at an event Lea. Happy Birthday and here's hoping that great card of yours makes it into the top ten...or top 3 for that matter!
Thank you for all the love. I have to see your lovely lettering ones. I'm sure I'm in for a treat. xoxo
Thank you so much Lea! Very excited to have my first picks!!
Oh my goodness this is the greatest post! So many of these blogs I probably never would have found by myself but now I’ve just subscribed myself to a whole bunch of them. Thank you so much for sharing this – blogs like this are amazing for bringing into the light books with some real quality to them. https://www.jestaplophotography.com/pre-wedding-shoot-charges-cost-mumbai-delhi.html
Thanks for catching that typo, Lea! At least I spelled it right in the title!
Hi Lea, thank you so much for your super helpful feedback on my Modern Glory entry. I wanted to leave you a note and say that I appreciate very much you taking the time. As always, love your designs. Thanks again and wishing all the best! :)
I just LOLed at your comment on the Stained Glass inspired design I submitted to the Christmas photo card challenge... you're 100% right!! How did I not see that?! Amazing! Thanks so much! Love your work -- and your great sense of humor!
Thanks so much for your helpful feedback, Lea! If you have a minute, please let me know if I've improved it: https://www.minted.com/design-rating/1015212?filter=all&sort=updateat Thanks, again!!
Lea finally took out the ampersand in Wreath of Peace. Your advice was spot on and I thank you so much! Have a great weekend!
You! You made my day! Big hug! xoxo Thankyou dearest!
Thank you so much for your kind invitation to the meetup group. Yes, please let me know when the group gets together. I would love to meet other artists/minted designers in the area!
I appreciate your kind comment on Picture Perfect, Lea, you helped stop second-guessing myself! Good luck in the competition, you have some gorgeous entries, Snowed In is a special favorite!
Thank you Lea for the like on Noel Mod. It was a submission I was unsure of, so to have you, whose work I admire so much, notice it means a lot. Love your plaid submission and the inspiration behind it. All the best in the challenges!
Thank you Lea for your sweet comment! Your entries are all so wonderful! Love all your clever messages, especially snow boots for swim suits.
Lea, Thanks for acknowledging my comment on your "colorful joy"! If you have time I would appreciate your feedback on my submission, "forever green". Thanks! Von
Thank you! I realized that and contacted them and they explained how to delete them. When I submitted a few they came back that the name was already chosen and I thought it didn't submit it but apparently it did for ALL of them! Thank you again for the heads up. I really appreciate it! :)
Thanks for the catch, my brain was turning to mush last night! Let me know if you think it needs anything else to improve!
Yep, you're right. I'm fiddling with it right now. Thanks friend!
thanks, Leah, doh, helps to actually center your type in the box! My card game is a bit rusty!! thanks for the likes too! good luck in the challenge. Love your plaid card - so classy :-)
Thanks for the comment!! And yes, I'm back! I made the tough decision to be a SAHM and do a little design on the side. I missed this community so much! Keep me posted if there's any local get-togethers. :)
Lea thank you so much for your helpful critique! It's honestly great when you have looked at something for too many hours to have another set of eyes! It's so appreciated! Thank you!
Thank you Lea for your helpful feedback! I don’t mind at all... to further question,does it look like blood...? I definitely wouldn’t want it to be disrespectful towards the holiday spirit. Which is why I find Holiday intimidating...
So happy for your wins friend! Well deserved oh so inspiring! xoxo
Thanks Lea! And WOOHOO for your wins!!! This is definitely your category :)
Thank you for the like on "Boy or girl". Love your humor and your IG posts!
Thank you, bud!
Hi Lea, Thanks for liking my submission "You Do You Narwhal". I love your work, best of luck :)
Ah! Thank you! I don't know how I totally missed that in the brief!! You're a life-saver!
