Tessy loved the concert poster design I did for my friend Jennie, but wanted something a little smaller and more cost effective. We ditched the envelope and decided on a 4x6 postcard version of the design. They came out great, even though they are considerably smaller than the original concept--they still have a lot of impact.

Great work! I was very pleased with the whole creation and editing process... and the resulting save the dates. I hand delivered a few because I wanted to see everyone's reactions! Thank you!

Featured Testimonial: Amanda!
Amanda's maid of honor contacted me about creating invitations for her close friend as a wedding present. Working with the two girls was really easy, and it was awesome to hear the reaction of both of them regarding the invitations.
The girls chose my "Surf's Up" invitation, and switched the colors around to fit the theme of the wedding. I also changed up the typeface to something a little more fun for Amanda.

Here's what Amanda had to say:
I just received my wedding invitations and they are so beautiful! Seeing the date, our names & everything down on paper at last is so exciting & makes everything so tangible and REAL. I dreamed about my invitations as a little girl but as a bride there's so much to do planning-wise ... my Maid of Honor decided to give these to me as gift & I couldn't be happier with the results. You've captured my colors perfectly with the navy & celery, and I love how the invitations are earthy looking & simple while still on-trend & totally unique.

Reminder!
Just in case you didn't see it in my sidebar over the last few weeks, I will be out of town this weekend enjoying some much needed time off. I will be checking email, but will not have access to any files.
I will be back Monday morning, and will answer all my emails promptly. Thanks!

Newest addition!
This is my latest design, which I have oh-so-creatively named: "Blooms and Stripes." I love it, and so did Sara! The bold flower illustration paired with the powerful stripes make a great combination – and a striking presentation when the envelope (complete with a matching label!) is opened.
I am really excited to see the reactions that these invitations get. And once Sara gets back from her wedding in Mexico, I hope to post her feedback with you here. I just couldn't wait for her to share them with you!

The invitation, RSVP postcard and guest information booklet are held together by a bellyband. Having a hard time envisioning it? It looks like this:

These invitations are not yet posted in my Etsy store (which can be found in the sidebar to your right!), but will be up at some point. If you are interested in making them your own, or would like to request a sample, email me. And, as always, I can adjust the colors to match your wedding theme!

It's wedding season!
First of all, I would like to apologize for not putting up a testimonial this week. I have been so busy finishing up orders and filling new ones that I just did not get it done. I can't believe how the word of mouth spreads, but I am very grateful for it. For those of you who have passed on my name–THANK YOU.
I have many more testimonials to post, but before I can do that--I need to ship the invitations off to my wonderful friend Abi to photograph them. In the mean time, I will do my best to keep my site updated with news and information.
