🎶On the second day of Market, Grace Paper gave to me…the best gift for those engaged and the cutest bookmarks you ever did see 😍

Mix and match these letterbooks for any couple on your list or snag a botanical bookmark exclusively at Christmas in the Park starting TOMORROW 🥳 until Thursday! Such good stocking stuffers!

Our favorite part about these bookmarks? They’re plantable! Once you finish your book, just take off the vellum overlay and ribbon to keep for use and plant the seed paper for black-eyed susans, snapdragons, catchfly, and poppies by spring. The gift that keeps on giving 💐

Well y’all - the Christmas card is virtual this year because there’s SO much to share, it couldn’t wait for the mail delays 😂😅

We’ll start it off with GPC has moved! 🏡 After a crazy past 3 months, I’m finally starting to get settled into my little Bungalow in my hometown of Lafayette. There’s so much more on this we won’t cover today but just know good things are coming 💗

Starting with a jam-packed Christmas calendar of fun for Grace Paper now until the new year!! Swipe for alllll the ways you can catch me and GPC for the rest of 2021 - starting with a stroll Downtown Lafayette then into an exciting week of shopping and live painting Moncus Park ! Our first EVER retail collection will be on display the 20-23rd exclusively at Christmas in the Park (stay tuned all this week for sneak peeks and giveaways galore) then I’ll be watercoloring the event LIVE on the 27th! Be sure to head to www.moncuspark.org to snag your tickets today!

Lastly, though it’s been a wild few months/weeks…I’ve been reminded that there really is no place like home. It’s not the last stop for me but it sure is sweet in the in between so here’s to wishing you a joyous season with you and yours ❤️ I hope to see you!

🤍📣***Hurricane Ida Relief Sale***📣🤍Y’all knew it was coming! Louisiana needs us now more than ever, y’all. Near…far…wherever you are - here’s 3 ways to carry LA on your shoulder, send a meal in spirit, and/or hang it on your heart through the extensive recovery that’s facing my sweet home state in the months ahead. 100% OF PROFITS from the sale of this collection will be going back to who serves a huge chunk of the region hit hardest by Ida. This may be a scene from the Big Easy but it’s going to benefit so many of the smaller bayou parishes facing the most devastation in the wake of the storm 💔 Shop Here > https://www.gracepaper.co/hurricane-ida-relief-sale

My hope is that this piece - with its iconic view of the Saint Louis Cathedral and a verse from our state song “You are my Sunshine ☀️“ - on these few special items will transport people everywhere back to this spot on a Sunny Sunday. With the smell of beignets in the air, a solo saxophone serenading “La Vie en Rose” like Mr. Armstrong immortalized, and the melting pot of people who make the heart of my sweet state somewhere so unbelievably special…my hope is that if you’ve experienced that (or have ever hoped to) you’ll consider purchasing something from this sale in honor of your buds from the boot…

Because you see - as you go more south west down the bayou from NOLA, the music gets a little more country and less jazz, and the food a little more Cajun than creole but the heart. The spirit. The soul. The joy. The goodness. That’s what needs you right now. It needs all of us and so, so desperately - more than CNN or the Weather Channel even has time to cover 💔

There’s one thing the people of LA usually have in common - a lot of us are salt of the earth people - the first to give and the last to ask. But today I’m not asking…I’m begging. For the magnolias and moss - the gumbo and etoufée - the Saints and the sinners…I hope you find it in your heart to give a little love to LA this week. Here or elsewhere - wherever feels right 🤍

I’ve been a lot of places in my life…creeping up on nearly 30 countries to be exact…I’ve seen a lot of cultures and people and resilience but out of all of those places in this wide world…the soul, spirit, and solidarity of South Louisiana and the gulf states reigns supreme.

So much feels familiar as we prepare for the worst Mother Nature has ever dealt over the next 24 hours and the weeks to come…the anxiety - the brace for impact - the helplessness…

But when those feelings get loud, they’re matched and quickly surpassed by the revs of neighbors go-devils prepared to pull people from the unthinkable - the generators clicking on amidst doors open to “strangers” (if you’re from here or have been here, you know that word doesn’t exist in our dictionary) - the familiar sound of bootstraps being laced to walk into the aftermath carrying our people on our backs when theirs is a very different home to come back to…

Please keep New Orleans, the south central and SE regions of Louisiana, and the people weathering and sheltering from this storm all over close in heart and mind over the next few days.

When you’re struggling with that helplessness, simply start thinking about how you can save a few dollars on something today to give to the recovery efforts tomorrow and into the coming weeks - the good Lord knows we’re going to need it.

But at the end of the day - times like these for us are like cracking open an old familiar book. The chapter may be different but the story stays the same…whatever comes our way is met with a togetherness unsurpassed by any place in the entire world. We might end up treading but never alone…

In that, there’s a buoy. That’s the eye in our storm 🤍 Pray for Louisiana, y’all - there’s no place easier to love.

Getting closer and closer to putting the suite that matches these extra dreamy Save the Dates in the mail and I’m so excited ✨

The options for paper and printing are endless in this stationery world but classic deep-kissed letterpress on billowy handmade paper will always be my favorite

2 whole months since A&C second lined through the streets of New Orleans but a lifetime left of swooning over their day-of details!

As a seriously hopeless romantic and bibliophile, I personally think custom vow or letter books are hands-down one of the most worthwhile investments for your wedding day. It’s like a journaled love letter to have and to hold for the rest of time 💌 let’s make it beautiful outside of the penned pages too✨

Alright y’all…I’m going to let you in on a little secret…as pretty and curated as this feed is…if you didn’t already know - running a business by yourself is H A R D. No matter how much it all looks put together - the brutal truth (for most of us solopreneurs) is that the behind the scenes - especially in the beginning - but also just in general - can be messy, exhausting, stressful, and chaotic just as much as it’s fulfilling, exciting, and rewarding. But for a long time, those first downs outweighed the latter ups…until I invested in

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not a magic fairy - it takes the time and investment needed to truly give your all to your business and it’ll never be perfect nor will I be perfect at it (per my perfectionist mind)…

BUT the tools, team, tip, tricks, and taskflows at Dubsado have not only helped with all the physical manifestations of my business (from proposals, to quoting, to proofs and production releases) but ~ most importantly ~ with my mindset and mentality as a small business owner who walks that journey with things like anxiety and ADHD. So if you’re like I was (and still am some days) stuck in the overwhelm of admin and organization in your business finding yourself hardly doing the things you started it to do - hop on my webinar in just 45 minutes (tap the link in my bio) and get a glimpse into the behind the scenes of how this powerhouse tool can take your brand, biz back-end, and busywork from overwhelming to organized.

To say it’s been a game-changer for me is (obviously) putting it lightly 😂 but I know it can be for you too and with the Sale rate this week on top of 20% off with my code “gpcdubaso” there’s no time like now! ✨
