I’ve been slowly working on developing a new card series that reflects my love for poetry and it’s been a little challenging. From digging through years of writing to figuring out the best design direction, it’s been an interesting journey. Since it’s quite personal, I feel like I’m sharing a piece of my heart, while trying to create a platform for others to make an intimate connection with each other. It’s sort of the way I felt while I was working on my Reflection Series, but this is deeper.
Being an artist you really need to be brave and just dive in, even though you don’t know how others will react. But I have always felt safe in the creative place I am in while doing the work. As long as I’m being true to myself and creating art, I am exactly where I need to be. I hope to launch this series by spring, but until then I’ll be a busy bee piecing it all together.

Wishing you all a Happy New Year! Reflecting on these past 12 months I feel so lucky to be living this life. 2017 was the best year for Gray Star Design and I look forward to see what’s to come.
The most this year taught me was to take self care more seriously and to focus on my individual happiness. The health issues I’ve faced this year were all related to stress and I am done with feeling out of control. So I am heading into the new year with a new outlook and a calm mind in hopes to live each day with intention, peace, and grace.
With my husband and son by my side and my little loves, Olive and Jenny, I am ready to move forward with my head high and heart full. Sending you all well wishes for 2018. Cheers!
