Creative solutions, passion, mutual benefit and an office sharing environment have brought Grace Park Design Studio and Ekcetera Productions together. WhiteSpace Creative Resources is a consumer and business client'ss solution to all things creative offering expert services from preferred companies, learning workshops, personal assistance, project management and an advertising resource center to assist with finding just the right creative solution.

Kelly Garrett, owner of Ekcetera Productions and Joyce Golden, owner of Grace Park Design Studio are more than business partners. They are creative family members (in-law'ss one might say). Joyce became Kelly'ss aunt in 1994 after marrying Kelly'ss uncle. The bond was instant. Kelly and Joyce separately opened creative businesses to guide consumer and business clients through creative decision-making. Both realized the need for additional creative resources and the mutual benefit their companies shared, deciding then to not only partner on projects, but to partner in a shared office environment dedicated to their passions.

Kelly and Joyce'ss companies share many creative solution offerings with the personal touch and connection clients are looking for to help them create, display and celebrate life'ss most memorable moments. The two share passion and talent, but both specialize in areas of expertise with years of experience and educational background.

Joyce Golden opened Grace Park Design Studio August 1, 2005, after 10 plus years of passionate experience in advertising, product photography, sales, scrapbooking, teaching, paper crafting and design. Joyce has a Bachelor of Arts Degree with a major in International Business from Hamline University. Grace Park Design Studio is the answer to life balance for Joyce. She shares her passion and creative mind with her husband, Steve of nearly 12 years and her 6-year-old son, Parker, and they are a family that enjoys time together, traveling and playing games. Joyce also enjoys decorating, cooking and being a Mom.

Grace Park Design Studio specializes in hand crafted paper products: custom designed invitations, stationery, party décor and more; creative digital photography, design and instruction; and memory book design and scrapbooks. Dedicated to sharing and teaching this passion, Grace Park Design Studio sponsors classes, workshops and one-on-one assistance. Do-it-yourself customers have become a niche for Grace Park Design Studio, assisting over 20 DIY brides with their wedding stationery this past year alone. A customer can come to Grace Park Design Studio for complete service from start to finish, for assistance with finishing the already started project, or for help with that one big idea needed to begin a project.

Kelly Garrett, recently married, planned on entering the corporate world after earning her Bachelor of Business Administration Degree from the University of North Dakota followed by a Master of Business Administration (MBA) Degree from the University of St. Thomas this past spring. She quickly realized after planning her wedding that following her passion for creative projects is where she wanted to take her marketing education background. Soon after, Ekcetera was well on its way to becoming the dream business for this spirited entrepreneur. Kelly has always had a passion for music, technology, scrapbooking, photography, interior design, and travel. She especially enjoys time with her family and her new husband, Dan.
