I'm officially on my wedding hiatus from all things L. Paull Designs for All! I have not done a blog design since the end of April, and spent most of May creating business card designs for current blog design clients, and well as design matching those I did not create the blog design for.
My wedding is June 12, and we will be heading to Disney for our honeymoon June 13-18. I will begin returning emails and such soon after I return. I am still booking custom blog designs, and have openings starting July 19.
If you're thinking about getting a custom design, now is the time to book! I tend to book quickly when I am designing regularly. I will also be starting graduate school this fall, and am unsure of what I will be able to design with my schedule.
Thank you for your constant love and support! I grately appreciate it! For all things wedding, visit my first wedding post on my teaching blog!

Calling All TpT Conference Goers!
I know so many of my clients will be heading to the 2nd annual TpT Conference this July, and some of you may be looking for business cards to take with you! If you're already a client of mine, and would like me to create matching business cards, free of charge, just let me know! You must inquire BEFORE May 24th in order to receive your design prior to my wedding hiatus. Failure to do so, will result in receiving designs AFTER I resume designs in late June.
If you are not a client of mine, shame on you! Just kidding! If you're not a client of mine, but would like to have a business card designed to match your current blog or store logo, I can definitely do that for a low cost of $10. This will cover anything you need including pretty fonts, patterns, simple clipart, and more!
Email me about what you're thinking, and I'll get it done for you! Keep in mind I do have a full schedule for April with blog designs, so any side jobs will be done as I have time, but I will guarantee designs completed by the end of May, so you have plenty of time to order in time for the conference.
I am taking May and June off from custom blog designs to focus on wedding plans, but will be able to design business cards through the end of May!
You can email me at thrivingin3rd@gmail.com if interested and include all of the information you'd like included in your email!
Thank you for your constant support and helping me have the wedding of my dreams!

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You
When I finally took the leap into this little blog design journey in July, I had no idea what to expect. I didn't think I'd have any interest. I was literally squealing like a 7 year old at a One Direction concert when I got my 1st client. Seriously...you can ask Jason... he laughed at me. Then I got another...and another...and soon I found myself staying up way too late to work on designs, but I loved it! I loved the people I've met, and hearing their stories.
Then, later in July, Jason proposed and the wedding planning began. I had my dream venue picked out and when we went to visit, I fell in love. I looked at Jason and said, "I don't care if I have to eat ramen noodles and PB&J sandwiches for the whole school year, I want to get married here."
Fortunately, I haven't had to do that, yet. We still have 70some (okay, exactly 73) days left until we say, "I do". This design business has quickly become a huge blessing in our lives. Jason constantly tells me I need to increase prices, which I have a couple times, but that was more because I began to create custom clipart, so it was taking a little more time and I knew I'd still be affordable.
I take pride in being different from other designers by not offering packages, add ons, extras, etc. Everything you could need or want is included. Want a TpT banner a month after I design your blog? No problem! Need to add a Facebook tab? You betcha! Am I going to charge you $5-$10...uhm, no. The only time I've ever charged an additional fee is if someone purchased a pre-designed template, and decided later they wanted to have more than what is included in a pre-design, and I want to keep it that way.
I understand that not everyone can afford $100+ blog designs...and honestly, I don't know how someone can pay that much! Do I spend hours and hours on a design? Yes. But I can't (without feeling uneasy about it) charge someone that much for something that I enjoy doing and know makes people happy. I just can't, and I won't.
Please know that each and every dollar I've made in this business has gone to the wedding of our dreams. Because of you, I haven't had to eat Ramen and PB&J every day. I'm so thankful for your support, kind words, and constant positive feedback. It means so much to me!
I decided awhile ago that I would take May and June off from designing to focus on finalizing my wedding plans, and enjoy time with my husband {to-be}. I didn't think I would open spots until I got back from our Honeymoon, but the more I thought about it, I decided to keep the form open, and continue to take clients starting June 28th.
I realize this is a long wait, and some of you may not want to wait that long, and I completely understand. I also know that summer vacation is the time when a lot of teachers start their blogging and TpT journeys, so I want to make sure any of you that are interested can get your spot on my list secured.
If you have any questions at all, you can always email me at thrivingin3rd@gmail.com
Thank you so much for your support, and I hope I get to work with you soon!
