I always enjoy working with Gina at A Touch of Whimsy. She has such fun ideas! We just finished up her annual redesign and I love the way it turned out! Gina did the layout and graphics and I integrated it into her shopping cart. Betcha didn’t know I did that, did you? Yep, if you are an artist and want to go ahead and do your own website design, I will gladly do the shopping cart integration into Simple Cart or one of our other approved shopping carts. Contact me for details!

And be sure to check out ATOWD for unique, personalized stationery!

Another recent launch! Soirée San Francisco is a paper and gifts boutique located on a cozy street in the Pacific Heights neighborhood of San Francisco. I adore the color palette they chose for their website, as well as the simple yet stylish design!

I love this time of year! Everyone is wrapping up their websites and getting them launched before the holiday selling season. I have two sites that went live this past week, I’ll share one with you today :o

It’s Sew Wright is a monogramming and gift boutique with a retail store in Greenville, North Carolina. They have a great selection of baby gifts, birthday presents and stocking stuffers. I especially love all their Scout products – all the colorful totes and storage bins, I’m in heaven!

As you can see, I’ve been doing lots of website makeovers lately! This one is actually a new customer that had an existing site. She wanted a new design that was bright and inviting. Oh, and preppy too! I’d say mission accomplished, wouldn’t you? I love her cute new logo and the textured ribbons we used in her web design – so perfect for a monogramming and embroidery boutique!

I’m so excited to share this makeover with you! Ann from Hip Mom Jewelry (formerly Swede at Heart) is a long-time customer of mine. We started working together back when we were both selling on eBay, which seems like a lifetime ago. She decided she wanted to give her site a more subtle, upscale feel…. new logo, new graphics, new layout, new high-key product images… and voila, mission accomplished! I truly love how this site turned out and how it complements Ann’s gorgeous jewelry.

My poor neglected blog! I’m so sorry about the lack of posts lately. I have tons of great stuff to share, just no time to blog about it! Summer has been really busy for us so I haven’t been able to work as many hours. I’m really looking forward to school starting in 3 weeks so that things slow down a bit and we settle back into a routine.

Okay, moving on :o) Today I want to introduce you to a site that launched last week – Plum Crazy. They are a brick & mortar retail store located in Frisco, Texas. They carry a wide selection of gift items – everything from scrumptious candles and bubble bath to preppy Lilly Pulitzer stationery and monogrammed umbrellas. Oh how I’m drooling over their MomAgenda Day Planners! Plum Crazy is a store where you will find a gift for the person who has everything, unique and wonderful things for the home, and simple luxuries to make everyday a little more special.

I just finished up a makeover for an existing customer. The Monogram Store has been online for a few years and wanted a facelift to freshen things up a bit. We kept the same basic color palette, but introduced another shade of pink – plus we spruced up the awning a bit. I love how it turned out! And I’m pretty sure Willoughby is pleased too!

“I loved my original site that Amy had done but wanted a facelift and I wanted some updates.  Once again, Amy to the rescue!  She‘s quick, she’s creative, she fun and easy to work with and she is smart!  She helped me maintain the look and feel of the site, while still giving it a fresh look and bringing the technology up to date. 

But most important is that she is patient.  I like to think I am a techy but really…not!  Thank goodness for my techy cohort, Amy.   Her patience as I ask the dumbest questions, or ask the same question for the 5th time, knows no bounds!

So if you want or need an update, Amy IS the gal!  And once again, thank you, thank you, thank you, Amy!!!!”
