Hi, all! Just wanted to say I have been a little lax on blogging here lately, but I have all kinds of updated designs and all my latest work up in my etsy shop. Click the link to the right labeled "My Etsy Shop" to go straight there.

We are now offering matching return address labels for all the Holiday Cards. They are $15 per package of 140 labels.
I may not have all the labels up on the website to order for a few more days. After you place your photo card order, you will email me with your photo(s). If you want to order coordination labels, just indicate that on your photo email. Also include the text as you would like it to appear on the labels.
Thanks!

Have your cards picked out, but still don't have a family photo? I still have a few openings for family and children's sessions in November. Weekends are very limited at this point, but there are some time slots available. I can do weekdays as well. Contact me at 615-364-3807 or mel7064@comcast.net.

You also may be wondering what happened to all the portraits on the blog. I have moved them to a separate photography blog, where they can be viewed in a larger format. All the latest sessions are there. Look to the right of the screen for a link to the photography blog.

When you are placing those holiday card orders, don't forget to add one of the PSA Essentials return address stamps and embossers. They are so adorable and make your envelopes look extra classy :)
Just go to www.thepattycakepress.com and click on the Stamps and Embossers link.

Above you will find a sneak peak of 2 out of 4 collections of cards I have been working on for the 2009 Holiday Season.  I hope to list the other two collections in the next couple of days.

You will be able to purchase cards by visiting my website.  The website will be down for a couple of days while I enter all the new products, so email me if you have questions until then.  Thanks!

Now through October 31, take $5 off any lunchbox!!
This makes small lunchboxes $19 and large lunchboxes $21.
Please visit my new website, www.thepattycakepress.com
Click on the Personalized Gifts category, you will see the link to personalized lunchboxes.

If you are local (Nashville, TN) and would like to pick your order up, just email me for an invoice. Thanks!

Here are some of the newest lunchbox designs for the princes and dino lovers. 

Couldn't wait to share this one.  He is too cute!  His session went so well.  This is the graphic we will be using for his party invitations and a gallery wrap collage.  Check out the link to the right labeled "Birthday Packages" for more info.

If you have questions or would like more information on anything you see on the blog, I have lots of info up on my new website www.thepattycakepress.com  including price lists for almost every item.

I do not have all the products uploaded and finalized, so please continue to email me with your orders, but the site is a great way to get quick answers to your questions. Thanks!

If you are looking for a one of kind gift for a graduating senior, the Gallery Wrap Photo Collages are great.
I am taking orders now for End of May delivery. They can feature the graduate's favorite colors, school colors, patterns they will use in their new dorm room, etc. You can specify what you would like for the text as well. Use their name, initials, a monogram, favorite scripture or quote, school name, Class of 2009, anything that is significant to them.

You can find additional information on pricing and how to send your photos on my new website www.thepattycakepress.com.
Please continue to email me with your orders until the site is fully functional.

I want to begin by thanking everyone who purchased a raffle ticket for the Gallery Wrap Canvas Photo Collage.  I am very moved by the Kelley family and what they are doing, and now they are a little closer to bringing their baby boy home.

Now, for some other exciting news.  I am in the process of getting a REAL LIVE WEBSITE!  I will still have the blog to keep everyone up -to-date and showcase the latest projects, but the website will be where you will go to purchase items and submit custom orders.  I am hoping this will streamline the ordering process for both myself and you, the customer, and allow each of us to spend a little less time in front of the computer, and little more time with our children and families.  I will still be emailing with people over custom orders, but the site should provide a lot more guidance and information on all products and processes.

I am really excited about this and can't wait until I am able to officially launch.  In the meantime, if you normally visit the blog via the web address, www.thepattycakepress.com, you may have noticed some temporary changes.  It no longer links you here, so you will have to come directly to the blog for a while to get all the current info.

Thanks so much to everyone who has made this venture such a success for me.  Our family is very blessed by it :)

I will leave you with some "visuals" of recent orders, all with customers own photos.
