I know, I know - it's been awhile since I've done a new design for the shop. But I've had the itch to draw this for awhile, and finally sat down to do it this past weekend. So, behold, the next design coming soon to a t-shirt near you: That's a pretty cool looking...
New Look
I've been a bit quiet on the blogging front this week, but I have a good reason: I've been working on giving Dragonflight Dreams a makeover! If you're following through a reader, click through to see the fresh new look. I kept a few elements from the old look (the...
Bits & Pieces
1. Life has been pretty hectic the last couple of weeks, what with vacation and the conference and our anniversary and the craft show. But now all of that is past, and I feel like I have some breathing room. It'll be nice to have time for reading and blogging and just...
Printfest
I am having a printing marathon over here as I try to get ready for my craft show/party this weekend. (If you're in the Austin area and want an invite, just let me know!) My office is kind of a disaster area right now. Prints laid flat on every available surface to...
Come Say Hi at TxSC!

Right Now
Right now, I am... looking forward to going to the lavender festival tomorrow during the day, and having friends over that evening, and then the Mumford & Sons concert on Sunday! Busy weekend, but all full of fun things. 😀 glad I went to the Bites & Bloggers...
2 Years
Today this little blog turns 2! And it's surprisingly a big deal. I guess I never thought I'd actually stick with it this long. A large part of that is because of you guys. Yes, this is a valuable creative outlet for me, but without knowing that -miraculously- there...
