Laser Projects
coastal + nursery signs
This summer some of my most popular files are a trio of coastal photo frames, perfect for capturing your vacation memories (pictured to the left)! I have a coastal round sign with a seagull pattern that makes for perfect summer DIY home decor too.
Warm weather also means baby shower season. Amongst my patterned nursery name sign backers, this safari animal themed laser file is definitely a fan favorite.

Cricut Designs
wedding + gifts
My Cricut machine played a huge part in my own wedding in 2022 – I used it to make all of my wedding signs, table place cards, and wedding party gifts. I WISH that I had designed this beautiful floral monogram back then – I used it on this project for the prettiest hangers (and was featured on the Cricut blog!) and you can also grab the whole image to use for sign borders in Design Space – just search #M505C0BEB!
If you don’t have any weddings on your calendar, this floral daisy gift tag is perfect for any other occasions, and it uses the draw feature on your Cricut which is always fun 🙂 Check out the project + video here.
Fabric + Wallpaper

I created some coastal and lake house inspired patterns for Spoonflower challenges last year, and since then have continued to add different colorways. I’ve created 3 collections for you:
