This year, each month, I will be collaborating with my dear friend Jenny to bring you a desktop background, 5x7" print, and bookmark printable each month (similar to the calendars I did for Blog a la Cart in 2013).
Each month, I will create a design around a quote that speaks to me ... Jenny will make the designs and printables available on her blog.
I was a little slow getting going this month, so January's went live on Jenny's blog, the PRETTY blog, yesterday. You can get the image above for your desktop background, and you can download a printable PDF that has the 5x7" print and bookmark.
This quote really spoke to me for the journey I am currently on with my family. It seemed especially appropriate for January, a time where we tend to reflect on the year past and make plans, cement hopes, and craft dreams for the year ahead. I try to live present, enjoy the present, and not live in the future at the expense of appreciating the now. That can be difficult. And, this quote makes a good point about all that. We don't know what our future holds; sometimes everything turns out how we expect it to, but other times it doesn't. Those other times can turn out to be so much better than we ever imagined.
So, this quote acts as a reminder to me ...

Love it so much. Thank you :)
I'm SO excited for these!! You should consider selling larger prints or printables.
So glad you love it! xoxoxo
That's a great idea, Jess! But for you, I would just do it - if you see any throughout the year that you want in a different size other than 5x7", just email me!!! xo
Awww! thanks! I'm still frozen in regards to my living room gallery wall that was to be my big home accomplishment for the fall. This print would look really great with a navy and gold painting that's coming from CB2 in march. Thanks again for the offer and I won't be shy about asking!
