Baptism

12 Apr 2014

Angie contacted me to create an ensemble to her son's baptism and 1st birthday celebration.  Her color choices were silver navy and brown, she was unsure what colors combination she wanted to go with but she knew she didn't want to use the basic pastel colors. 

We started with so many different designs and ended with a wax seal monogram invitation, in silver, navy and white.  I added crystals to make the invitation pop and although the color of the crystal is a light blue, I think Angie really liked it. 



I really liked how the whole ensemble came out, what do you think of it?


On a side note, I have to share, I was truly impressed with FedEx shipping. I sent out the invitations on Saturday to Canada, and surprisingly my client received them on Monday.  I guess it is true what they say, you get what you pay for.  Thank you Fed Ex for making my client happy.




Feathers and Glitter

10 Apr 2014


Nahla is turning 1 and Nicole is having a huge party for her first birthday.  When Nicole contacted me and asked if I can change my wings invitation a bit for her daughter's birthday I was more then happy to do it.  She wanted pink feathers and wanted to add gold glitter. 

I adore these invitations, and I think Nicole had a great plan for the party, I cant wait to see the photos. I will definitely share when they come in. 

So what do you think of the outcome?




ON a side note, I love feathers but working with them can get a bit messy.  After the order was completed, I was covered in feathers and glitter, such a great combination... My studio still has glitter everywhere, if anyone has an idea about cleaning glitter please leave a comment.


Sweet 16 Cruise

8 Apr 2014

Jaclyn in turning sixteen and her mom is taking her and her friends on a cruise to the Bahamas.   When Stacie contacted me and told me about the cruise I knew immediately what I wanted to do.  We decided on a boarding pass invitation, at first I had a hard time figuring out the color combination, but when Stacie told me what Jaclyn's favorite colors were it made it so much easier.  

Her  favorite colors are turquoise and lime green.  I think I hit the mark on these.


These colors worked so well together, I couldn't believe how gorgeous they were when put together.  I was a bit apprehensive at first but as soon as I saw the paper layout I fell in love.

Stacie said that Jaclyn was gushing over the invitations. I cant wait to hear what her guests think
