"I was asked by Greta Sebald to write a short testimonial for Teeny Peanut Designs, and it is with great pleasure I do so. I was a little overwhelmed at the thought of making my adoption profile. I didn't know where to begin. Then I turned to Greta at Teeny Peanut Designs, and I knew immediately I was in good hands.

I can't say enough good things about working with Greta and Teeny Peanut Designs. She far exceeded my expectations in developing my profile book. I would probably still be waiting to be selected if it wasn't for Greta's help. Greta created an impressive and professional profile that really stood out amongst the many other profiles the expectant mothers viewed. I'm confident the design and her assistance in creating it played a big part in being selected, as I was the only single parent listed amongst a large number of couples! And from what my expectant mother had said, the profile had really done a great job of highlighting the key reasons she decided to choose me.

With Greta's guidance, she completely turned around my initial attempt at a profile, making it not only very attractive to young expecting mothers, but high quality and engaging. She created a one-of-a-kind design for me and totally nailed my style and personality! I absolutely loved the design and the way she laid everything out! Greta is a very insightful, creative and reliable person. She always gave me honest and helpful feedback. She has a lot of marketing expertise which is what I needed, and yet she never forgot this was a very personal project to which she brought a high degree of sensitivity. I found trying to develop the profile on my own to be very challenging and discouraging. Through the Teeny Peanut


Adoption Ideas eBook, I got a lot of great ideas on getting started, how to approach the profile, what photos to include, how to figure out the impression I wanted to make and how to do some outreach on my own. She carefully reviewed everything that I provided and gave me an objective and constructive viewpoint to make my profile more effective in describing my life and appealing to expectant mothers. And she did it all within the quick timeframe that she promised!


Because Greta has been through the adoption process herself and has had a biological child, I really felt Greta understood both sides of the adoption process. She thought of approaches and solutions that I never would have come up with. Her optimistic and upbeat attitude helped to keep me hopeful and excited. Having Greta do the profile for me energized me during an exhausting process, saved me a ton of time and frustration, and reduced my stress level. It was so convenient to have her take care of everything. She reassured me that I was on the right track, and made me feel as though I wasn't all alone in this overwhelming process. Working with Greta was one of the few highlights of the adoption process. I can't wait to work with Greta again. She'll be designing my coming home announcements for my daughter!"

Piper's AnnouncementUpdate: "I'm absolutely thrilled to have my daughter, Piper, home with me now. Of course I wanted to share the exciting news about her arrival, so the first call I made was to Greta. Once again, she came up with a wonderful design that reflected what I wanted and the season I was making the announcement (Christmas). She has again impressed me with her ability to capture this amazing event. Thank you!"

 



Tyana's announcement

Fraoul's announcement

"We met Greta prior to our first adoption of Tyana from Ethiopia. Greta was so knowledgeable about Ethiopia that she helped to prepare us for the amazing adventure that was ahead. We have now adopted two children from Ethiopia, and we had Teeny Peanut Designs create a special adoption announcement for both Tyana and Fraol. We are so pleased with the outcomes and how the designs captured their personalities! Greta's suggestion to tell the children's story about their coming home journey was a great idea. Because they were older children at the time of the adoption, it was a nice way to tell about the kids and introduce them to people. Working with Greta was a real pleasure....she was genuinely excited about our adoptions. It was honestly like working with a friend. Thank you, Greta, for making these joyous events even more special!"
