Featured Testimonial: Dolores!

Dolores inquired about my concert postcard save the date postcards. She loved them, but wanted to tweak them a little for her big day. Rather than the typical black type on white card stock, she went with a brown ink on an off-white stock to give it more of an antique feel. I loved how they came out, and was very excited for her to get them in her mailbox. When she opened them up, she wrote me this email:

"I received them yesterday and was blown away with them! I absolutely love them and can't wait to send them out. We actually had our engagement party Saturday, so I can send them out with my thanks you's.

Thanks again! I cant wait to post how awesome they look!"

Thank you Dolores--I look forward to working with you on your invitations!

Featured Testimonial: Alison!

I worked with Alison to create her version of the "Just Berried" Invitation:

See more photos and/or buy a sample.

We worked together and changed the palette to match her upcoming wedding and added a few more pieces to the suite. I sent off her envelopes before the invitations were finalized so that they could get addressed and ready to be stuffed with my designs. I shipped her finished invites off a couple weeks ago and got this nice note sent to my inbox this weekend. Thanks so much Alison, if you need anything more for your big day--please let me know!

Here's what Alison had to say:
I'm so sorry I've delayed in getting back to you and letting you know that I received the invitations, and they are perfect!!! My parents are coming into the city tomorrow to bring the envelopes (which they had their neighbor address in calligraphy), so we're going to have a stuffing party, and my hope is to get them mailed early next week.

Thank you so much for your patience in dealing with me and helping to make my invitations elegant and simple and modern. While I did end up with more pieces than I anticipated from the beginning, it would have been impossible to do it otherwise - there was just so much info!

I've already told a couple people about you, so you may be busy this summer!

Thanks so much again,
Alison

Dress up your envelope with Custom Postage!

Give your guests a taste of what's on the inside. I offer custom postage designs for all my invites. These personalized stamps are a really fun way to include the "inside" of your invitations on the outside.


The stamp pictured above goes with my "Ka-Bloom!" invitation set, seen here:


Don't let your wedding "brand" live within the envelope, bring it to the outside!

Be ready for 2010!

After many late nights, it's almost done!

The work has begun!

I've officially started the 2010 desktop calendar. I expect to have them ready in the next few months, plenty in time for Christmas! I am accepting pre-orders for them because I sold out last year. I'm going to order a bigger run this time around, but please send me and email if you would like to preorder!

Here is what my calendar looked like for 09'. The format is staying the same, but it will have new designs.

If you need a refresher, or are new to my stuff--the desktop calendar stands up on it's own in an acrylic case. Each month features one of my invitation designs. This year will feature some new designs and color schemes and will be the same price at last year ($15 +$2 shipping).

Here is a sneak peek at what is officially January:
