Nie Nie Day Auction

For anyone who hasn't read about it, a wonderful wonderful woman and blogger named Stephanie Nielson (known as Nie Nie) and her husband were in a private plane crash a little over a week ago. You can read details on her sister's blog. They are an awesome and inspirational bunch, with a long and expensive road of recovery ahead. So, that brings us to today - Nie Nie Day! A day of auctions across blogland, with all money going to the Nielson Family Fund. You can find many more auctions here and we encourage you to bid on many! As fans of Nie Nie and her inspiring blog, we couldn't let this opportunity to help pass us by, so we came up with something to contribute.

McKay has been designing web sites for 9 years, and her work includes Peekaboo Baby, Kage Handbags, This is Me Journal, Tales from the Crib, and others. McKay also worked in the interactive division of Scholastic Publishing, and is now a mom when not glued to her computer (well, she's a mom even WHEN glued to her computer, but not a very effective one). Chris recently graduated with a degree in Computer Graphic Design from Natcoll in New Zealand and has extensive experience in logo and brand concept design. Chris designed the logo for the Snapdragon Inn, the concept for this blog you are reading right now, and designed all the logos pictured in this post as well as many, many others. She has done a great deal of work in print design for private clients, and is also working on her first line of textiles.
