Mommy Lhey Designs Double Feature

Good Morning Creatives!

Something super cool happened recently.

I was having lunch with my little at school when one of her friend’s moms asks the question I get a lot: So…what do you do exactly?

I gave my standard answer of  “Well…I do freelance design work in the paper crafting and mixed media industry.”

And to my surprise she answers…. “Oh really? I own a planner and scrapbooking company called Mommy Lhey Designs and I used to design with Prima.”

WHAT?!?!?!?!?!

First of all…most people don’t even understand what I mean when I say what I do.

Secondly…someone who kind of does the same thing.

Crazy, huh?

I heard the song “It’s a Small World” going through my head as we talked about what she did and what I do.

A few days later, she sent me a yummy little box of Mommy Lhey goodies.

Oh YouTUBE…where have you been?

Due to some technical difficulties, I haven’t been able to do a video for my YouTube channel for a while. Thanks to my hubby for my buying me a new webcam and some backup storage (hello 4TB of storage!) I was finally able to a make a new video.

I thought it would be fun to do an “unboxing” video and then use the things I just unboxed to create something.

Ready for my close-up

Here is the full finished product:

Bonus Project!!

I TOTALLY fell in love with Mommy Lhey’s little sushi collection. You could see that some of the pieces were intended for use in a planner and although I am not usually a “fussy” planner kind of girl, I really wanted to have fun with this collection.

Here’s what I came up with:
