Baby Girl's First Birthday

11 Apr 2015

I got a call the other day from Liz wanting a cute invitation for her daughter's first birthday.  She loved the  onesies invitation but didn't quite want those for her daughter's birthday.  So using the onesies as a starting point,  I went to the drawing board and came up with this.



Started off with the pink card stock and created a fold over ruffled dress.  To make this more for baby, I added the wording of the invitation on the onesies insert cut out and printed it on shimmer card stock



I closed the card off by adding a beautiful sheer pink ribbon tied in a bow... But, you know me and my embellishments!  I had to keep going, I added pearls to the dress, first I put it at the bottom but it was still missing something so I made this cute little necklace...




Because seriously, what girl doesn't like jewelry?

I had so much fun creating this card, a lot of trial and error, and quite a bit of hair pulling but in the end it was all worth it.  I did add it to my etsy shop, and have already gotten quite a bit of views and favorites on it.  Please stop by my shop and take a look around.

If you are interested in purchasing this for your baby's 1st birthday, you can purchase it directly through my shop by clicking here.  Thanks for stopping by!


Nautical Theme Baby Shower

1 Apr 2015



Ahoy Matey!

We have recently added new invitation designs to our etsy store and here is one of them that I absolutely love.  These gorgeous diaper invitations can be made in any color or style, here I made a nautical theme invitations in navy blue and red.







The inside of the invitation I kept in the same color scheme, adding both masculine and feminine fonts and printed it on bright white heavy weight card stock


On the front of the diaper I added a 3d tag with Baby Boy and the date of the event. Of course we can make it with the name of the mommy-to-be 



But of course I think you know me enough to know that i couldn't just stop there, I proceeded to add the cutest anchor charm on the front to tie it together.   If you are interested in checking these invitations out or seeing more in other designs, check out our Etsy shop, I will be adding more designs and colors as I complete them.

Thanks for stopping by!

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.
