St. Louis Photographer » A Journal by Holly McCaig

So, here’s a little design/news update for you.

First off, I wanted to share with you, this:

I designed these t-shirts so I could get them printed to give to new bride and grooms that sign a contract with me for weddings. Now, I have to get Jake to get them printed! I figured, they are just too cute to NOT share with other photographers, so you can purchase the designs at Pink Ink Studios for $60. You get both the .PSD and a Vector file in .AI to use. My store at Pink Ink Studios lately has mostly the things I design for my own studio use.

And, because it’s been mostly photography-related designs, I failed myself to keep up with my commitments in the digital scrapbooking world. So, I am no longer creating anything new for sale at Two Peas in a Bucket (I am still waiting on a response for if my stuff stays there or gets removed or what – so sorry for the vagueness, I just don’t have any answers!). I enjoyed designing for their audience, but as I mentioned before, my time just goes towards my photography business. I hate saying I’ll retire, so I won’t. I won’t say “never”. In fact, I am pretty sure you’ll see me working on future projects and maybe giving away a few things here and there. Life and times are just evolving.

I hope to get some more new designs up at Pink Ink Studios as I complete them for the business. Things like Grad Announcements and Save the Dates (other wedding related products for my clients too). SMOOCHIES!

Just a quick peek at some re-packaged goodies coming out this Tuesday at Two Peas in a Bucket. If you missed out on these before, here’s your chance to grab them again. My store at Two Peas in a Bucket.

Amanda Dunn made this adorable layout of Haley with my 4th of July kit, Boom! I love this adorable little mini kit that helps keep it patriotic for all your 4th of July celebrations. Comes with a full alphabet and number set.

Stay tuned for more releases later!

Sorry for the delay in this post, but there have been some glitches in the system over at 2Peas so we’ve had issues trying to get these two items posted for sale. I LOVE these. I love vintage and worn looks on scrapbooking pages. These two new products at 2Peas in a Bucket can also be purchased for commercial use.

So, all weekend, I’ve been working in the office. I’m still not done. I hope to have it all wrapped up by the weekend so I can take photos for the 2Peas in a Bucket blog feature at the end of the month. However, after looking at the last person’s space, I feel inadequate. No really. I mean it. Do NOT expect anything like this from me. K?

In fact, to entertain you, here’s what I started out working with. Sad huh?

And, I’m feeling generous. Here’s that font featured on my photo watermark there. It’s my handwriting. I used to sell this ages ago, but I’m just giving it away now. Enjoy! Download here.

I was ecstatic to be invited to participate for a second time in the Wacom’s Pen Scrappers project. Located at www.penscrappers.com. It’s Wacom’s marketing program to get digital scrapbookers and hybrid artists using their fun Bamboo tablets. This time, my project was themed around New Years. If you click the link, you can watch my video tutorial on creating glitter splatters on your pages.

Here’s my newest kit for sale that I created for this project:

You can purchase this kit for $4.99 in my store, by clicking here.

And, here are my two layouts I made for the project:

Hope you enjoy – and be sure to check out all the other designers’ projects! So much amazing inspiration from many talented ladies in the industry. And, be sure to enter their contest too!!! You could win a Bamboo Fun from Wacom!
