Free Wallpaper for December 2019
Happy December + last month of the decade! I can remember my dad hanging up our Christmas lights every year outside our house. My mom loved the sleek looking strings of all white lights but dad always liked those huge, colorful lights that were real popular in the 80s. I’m with you, Dad! And that’s what the inspiration for this month’s FREE digital wallpaper design is all about.

It's August already and the sadness that summer is slipping away is starting to set in. I'm not ready to let it go, that's for sure. But here in Colorado the end of summer also coincides with peach season! I'm keeping my eye out for those roadside fruit stands so I can get a case or two of those Palisade peaches and taste the last shreds of summer in those juicy buggers.
Free Wallpaper for July 2018
Hey guys! July's here and it's already been one heck of a summer! I've been super duper busy with work projects, but this last week or so I've had a little break which has been amazing.

Free Wallpaper for June 2018
Hello hello! Happy June! I feel like I say this every month -- but man, did last month fly by or what?! I've been crazy busy with work and it's been my best month EVER in business. Plus, I somehow managed to book out until September. (So heads up if you've been thinking about getting into my schedule that you'll want to ask sooner rather than later!) I've been working behind the scenes on some amaze-balls brands that I'm SO excited to share, but they're not quite ready yet. In the meantime, you'll just have to settle for this summery FREE wallpaper design for June.
Free Wallpaper for May 2018
April has been one of those months where it felt like everything and nothing happened all at once. Personal highlights of the month include: taking two ski days, attending a very intense Wrestlemania party, joining a Wednesday night trivia team and experiencing my first drag queen bingo (so frickin' fun!). Business highlights include: wrapping up a beautiful gold-foiled invitation suite for the Children's Museum, cranking out 2 logo designs and a website design, and filling up my schedule all the way through June. So overall, I'd say it's been a pretty eventful 30 days.
