I had a blast creating the invitations and printed items for my dear friend Cari's baby shower. I also had the privilege of creating a Sip n See invitation for Cari and her husband too. Creating a birth announcement for Miss E after she was born was a real treat.
Having gorgeous newborn photos made it all that much more fun. Newborn photography by Infiniti Foto.
I loved filling in all of the stats and features for little Miss M.
For the back I created this photo collage, inspired by one I saw on Minted.com to showcase all of the great photos. I love how it turned out!!
Welcome to the world Emily!!
I was honored to get to design wedding invitations for Kelly and Patrick a few years ago, so it was a real treat to get to design birthday invitations for their youngest son for his first birthday. They wanted to go with a sports theme that had a little bit of a vintage feel. Kelly was finding lots of invitations she loved, but most of them only showed one sport rather than a variety and many weren't done in a style she loved.
Here's the invitation:
I love that huge smile!!
For the party, we made a faux chalkboard that contained all of his favorite things, books, foods, toys along with his one-year stats. I love doing these!
A rookie card long with a few toys and yummies filled goodie bags and they were tied with these favor tags.
Here's a closer look at Jake's rookie card:
Lastly, with a bunch of the photos taken at Jake's birthday party, we created a two-sided thank you card that included a space for Kelly and Patrick to write their message.
Wishing you a very happy birthday Jake!!
I've been lucky to be able to design a lot of fun items for this family, one of my favorite families. From their wedding to the birth announcement and birthday invitations of their oldest baby and now the announcement for their daughter!!
All of the names have been changed to protect privacy.
For the back, I made a photo collage similar to one I saw on Minted.com a while back. I loved the diagonal lines for everything. It made for a much more dynamic collage.
A heartfelt congratulations to this beautiful family!!
It's a little later than I wanted, but I managed to get a few new holiday cards designs and added to my Etsy shop this past week.
I'll be accepting orders for holiday cards (whether custom or in my Etsy shop) thru Sunday, December 20th. After the 20th, I will deactivate holiday card listings in my shop and spending the week of Christmas with my family.
All of these designs have a couple of options when it comes to either a text color or a background color. Clicking on an image will take you to its listing in my shop.
My sister and her fiancé, Michael wanted to send out a holiday card that shared a bit about the fun stuff they did in 2014. The biggest event was that they got engaged!! We used the polaroid photo collage that I used for my family's 2012 holiday card and made it work for their images.
As you can see, they love to be active and outside.
Congrats little sister!! Can't wait to share your wedding invitations too!
I created holiday cards that are currently available in my Etsy shop. Each listing explains what can and cannot be customized and if there are options for colors. Let me know how you're planning to print your cards and I'll make sure to set up the final files to the correct printing specifications.
Clicking on an image will direct you to its corresponding Etsy listing.
This is one of my current favorites! One image and a Christmas greeting, choose either the green or blue colorway.
This is a two-sided design with a large image on the front. You can have it say either Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays (or some variation of those). The back has space for up to five images along with a letter to friends and family about your family's year.
This design allows you to showcase five images and give your family and friends a top ten list of the highlights of your year. I can do either a green or blue faux chalkboard background and I have have the bottom say either Happy Holidays or Merry Christmas (or any variation of those). Please keep your "top ten" brief as space is limited.
This design is laid out to be sent in a #10 envelope. You can have the bottom greeting say anything you'd like and the space at the bottom of each polaroid photo can caption each image.
Six images and a non-Christmasy greeting. Great if you're like me and you struggle to get your cards into the mail before Christmas!
Share one image with a snowflake background and holiday lights for a border!
One family photo and a couple of giant snowflakes. I can customize the color of the flags at the top and bottom to correspond to colors that are in your photo or leave them as is. Let me know!
One family photo and sized to fit into a #10 envelope. You can choose between a red, green or blue swirly background too!
Simple design with a greeting you can customize. Choose either red, green or blue for the snowflake background.
Simple design that showcases one family photo. Two color options and it can say either Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays or a variation of those.
I am working on new designs that I hope to be able to add to my shop within the next week or so.
Shoot me an email if you're looking for something custom or you want to rework one of these designs. Also check out the custom cards I've created for clients. I can rework those designs to fit your needs as well.
Shenell and Omar eloped on a beautiful beach in the Bahamas and wanted to send an announcement to friends and family. We created a two-sided fake postcard using photos from the shoot they did after the ceremony.
I love the custom postmark and the fake stamp!
Congratulations!
