I’m excited beyond words to introduce you to this month’s Scoop! I’ve been following Paul Lowe aka Sweet Paul online for a number of years, from his much-lauded blog to his quarterly magazine. From craft projects to recipes, his work is always visually stunning and completely inspiring (as are his Pinterest boards and Facebook page!). One of my favorite regular features is “Woof“, a column featuring dog-friendly recipes and quirky dog product picks. Of course, I had to find out more about the inspiring canine behind this column. So, without further ado, let’s meet Lestat!

Design Crush has been Kelly Beall’s love letter to the design community since 2007. She’s a graphic designer and creative consultant by trade who doesn?t make or sell anything other than perception, but she’s passionate about supporting those who do. Giving them a voice and spreading their names and talents far and wide is what she does best!
I first met Kelly at Alt Summit a few years ago, where her sassy sense of humor had me giggling the whole conference. She’s also one of my favorite people to follow on Twitter and Instagram, where she regularly posts photos of her adorable dog Piper!

Juggling an active Internet career with writing, speaking, styling and consulting, Erin Loechner can be found daily at DesignForMankind.com, her art/design blog that was recently honored as one of the London Time?s top 50 design blogs in the world, as well as DesignForMiniKind.com, a kid-friendly sister site. She currently hosts a renovation column on HGTV.com where she catalogs her experiences as an impromptu interior designer (she’s really good, people!). Erin is also expecting her first child this July — a baby girl! To say I’m thrilled to bits to have Erin and her cutie patootie pups on Dog Milk today is an understatement. (I don’t even think it’s possible to count how many bits I’m thrilled to!) Erin is actually the first blogging peer I ever met in real life and there’s a special, sunshine-filled spot in my heart for her. BUT! Enough about my undying girl crush, let’s meet Bernie and George!
