Our Holiday Card - 2008

In 2008, my husband and I were newly married and happily living life in southern California. It was the first year we were sending out a holiday card as a married couple and I wanted to do something fun. This watercolor painting was the result. 

Yup, snow angels in the sand. 

I printed them onto card stock and mounted them onto pre-made red and white note cards that came with red envelopes from Target. I added a short, hand-written message on the inside too. Simple and fun.

Allison & Eion

Allison and Eion were planning a wine-themed, fall wedding, but they specifically didn't want to use graphics of grapes and leaves and vines. Allison discovered a business card that had faux wine rings on them and she was hooked. 

These were so much fun to work on!

We kept the invitation itself simple. I love the wine-colored envelopes and sage green satin ribbon. So elegant!

We added wine rings to the inserts.

The program was simple; just a piece of card stock folded in half.

Escort cards were done in pairs. The front card listed the guest's name and the second card listed their table.

A menu was placed at each place setting.

We created a sign for the candy buffet.

Everything turned out beautiful and special thanks to Allison and her wedding photographer, Sachs Photography, for sharing some lovely photos.
