Hot Pink and Teal First Birthday Invitation

I cannot believe how many babies are turning ONE this summer! Well, I assume a lot of them are, but there are several that I know specifically since it seems that all I've been working on lately are first birthday invitations!

First up? Penelope! Her sweet mama wanted me to do a front and back invitation which was a fun concept and we both loved the way it turned out!

Melissa Manzione Photography Logo Design

Melissa is one of my closest friends and I have created a photography logo for her before. But she wanted a refresh and re-branding that would set her apart more and was more personalized to her photography style. We worked for weeks searching out the perfect fonts, images and arrangements but in the end we nailed it and Melis was thrilled with the outcome!

Nautical Bridal Shower Invitations and Thank Yous

Amy is having TWO bridal showers and needed one invitation design for both. Her inspiration is nautical since one of her showers it as the beach and the colors were gray, butter yellow and navy. I created a simple design with a lasting impression and Amy loved them so much, she had matching thank-you notes created as well!

Rebecca & Gary's Wedding Details: Place cards, Favor Tags, Seating Chart

Not only did I work with Rebecca for her Save the Dates and Wedding Invitations, but I also created her gift bag tags, favor tags, seating chart and place cards. It was so fun to work with all these other elements in her wedding and see them come to life as one big suite of items that all seamlessly flowed together.

 

The seating chart was printed 14x17 and mounted on an easel for guests to look at upon their arrival into the ballroom. 

Thank you to fabulous photographer, Melissa Manzione for the last two images!

Coral and Gray Bridal Shower Invitation

It seems as though Coral and Gray are hot trends this spring (can you tell by my logo/blog design? ha!) and I loved working on this color combination with Angela for her friend's bridal shower! Add some fun fonts, a bit of chevron, and a swirly frame and we had a winner!

Custom Checklists for "The Christian Blonde"!

Alexandra is positively genius. When she contacted me for custom checklists that her readers could download right off her blog, my first thought was, "why didn't I think of that?!"

Alexandra's blog is all about being a fierce and fabulous mama and she wanted to help other mamas be fierce and fabulous as well. These detailed checklists were so time consuming, but SO MUCH FUN to design and I loved working on this project with Alexandra! Check out her blog, The Christian Blonde, for more fun downloads... and more to come! :)

Garden and Floral Bridal Shower Invitation

When Stacy contacted me for invitations for her bestie's shower, I had a vision in my head almost the moment she said, "she's very J.Crew meets Kate Spade." That, plus her idea for a "garden" theme sent me running and Stacy loved the final product after my first draft! I knew I wanted to do bright, bold colors with a chic and elegant twist. Caroline's shower is sure to be glamorous and fun, don't you think?!

Sonia's Custom Blog Design

Sonia wanted a custom blog make-over that was fun and girly to document her new lifestyle blog, Sneakers and Stilletos! Using fun fonts, an enticing color palette, and just a bit of sparkle, I think we got the look she was going for! Happy Blogging, Sonia!

Southern Glam Wedding Invitations: Amanda & Josh

Amanda is one of my good friend's little sister, and also a dear friend as well. I created her and Josh's engagement invitations in the fall and was thrilled to work with her on her wedding invitation suite.

Amanda and Josh are getting married at Barnsley Gardens, right outside of Atlanta, Georgia where they live. She is having a stunning Southern-style wedding with what is sure to be an elegant and glamorous touch. Being an event planner AND a wedding photographer herself, I just know Amanda's wedding is going to be amazing!

For the invitations we went simple with Amanda's color palette of silver, gray and a light powdery purple. Each piece has a custom monogram at the top that will also be incorporated into other aspects of the wedding. We also threw in a little punch of glamour with silver glittery invitation liners - just to let the guests know what they were in for ;)

It's hard to tell by the pictures, but the invitations were also printed on a shimmery, crystal metallic card stock for an extra sheen!

Has to be one of my favorite projects to date! Congratulations to Amanda and Josh!

Valentine's Day

It's no secret that I love Valentine's Day! Or, any holiday where you can send a cute card to someone to remind them how much you love them. Here are the "Valentines" that my kiddos sent out to their closest friends, aunts, cousins and grandmas!
