Cute as a Button BIRTHDAY

I'm really pleased with how this custom birthday invitation turned out. Gemma's mom wanted to use a pink, blue, green & brown color scheme and I just so happened to have buttons in those very colors to embellish the invitations.

She is planning to use lots of different patterns at the party, so I created a plaid and used polka-dots to keep things light and airy.

I am happy to alter the color scheme to meet your needs and think this sweet invitation would look great in a variety of colors. It is available as a 5x7, 4x6 or the "monarch" size which is approximately 3.5 x 7.25 for pricing options. I am also option to unique wording for a different age. Just let me know what you want it to say!

There are many extras to choose from that match this design. The stickers shown are both "favor" stickers, but it is very easy to substitute an address to create adorable return address labels.

The pricing for these sized invitations is available at the right with a small fee for the buttons. That fee is based on the number if your order...probably 5-10¢ per invitation.

PAYMENT — Write me a check, send it electronically!

Today I discovered a new way to accept payment...quickly...and I am so excited!

If you do not wish to pay by PayPal, simply provide me with the correct shipping address, write a check and either scan it or snap a picture of it with your phone and email it to me! I can process the deposit electronically very quickly and easily. You save a stamp and I don't have to pay any PayPal fees!!

ASPEN LEAVES Wedding Suite

This is actually the most recent of my wedding designs that I need to catch up on posting.
The bride wanted a combination of fancy and earthy while using purples and aspen leaves. I created an image of branches with aspen leaves to use her color scheme (this can be altered to fit your needs) and we decided to combine a "fancy" metallic purple paper with a very earthy kraft coverstock. The paper choice is somewhat unexpected, but turned out really great and successfully merged a formal affair with the natural elements of Colorado.

This is a gatefold invitation and I am happy to design coordinating inserts as needed. The backed wrap holds everything together and fits into an A7 envelope.
In addition to the invitations, Kayla asked that I design a 11x14 seating chart, table number tents and a two-in-one program/menu (program on the front, menu on the back). All of the pieces turned out beautifully. Congratulations to K+R on their new marriage!

"CLAIRE" – Dusty Blue & Coral Birth Announcement

I was so thrilled to get to design an announcement for this precious baby girl! Her mom and dad are dear friends and we could not be more excited for their new addition.

The color scheme is modern and soft...coupled with an elegant script it is perfect for a little girl. The fonts can change easily to be fitting for a little lad as well.

Bulk pricing available for orders over 50. Requires a minimum 2 week turnaround for larger orders. Email me with questions or to place an order. I am happy to adjust photos in Photoshop, but you must have full rights to reproduce.

PEACOCK Wedding Invitation Suite

I have so many wedding invitation designs that I need to get up on the blog.... My goal is to have them all up by the end of the biggest wedding month of the season: June.

I somehow sent these off in the mail before taking photos of the finished pieces, but I am so pleased with how they turned out!

This metallic suite is certain to stand out in the mailbox and in the memory of the recipients. I love what the lagoon colored envelopes add to the set.

Of course these colors are completely customizable. My favorite part is the way the peacock is nestled into the shape within the invitation.

Cat in the Hat FIRST Birthday

 I love the birthday poem with this Cat in the Hat birthday invitation. It is easy to customize for something other than a swimming party. There are 2 versions of this design. The larger image above and the #2 option to the left. Please let me know which you prefer and if you have changes to the wording of the poem.

Thank you cards and stickers are also available upon request.

CRAYONS & ART Birthday Invitation

I may have designed these for a 4 year old little boy, but I would have LOVED an art birthday when I was growing up. I've loved to color for as long as I can remember. Needless to say, this was a very fun project to work on.

The invitations are the economical "monarch" (3.5x7.25) but if you are looking for something bigger, they can also be a 4x8.5 (same pricing as 5x7).

I personally feel that the invitation shown with "Jake" is fitting for both boys and girls. However, if you are looking for something a bit more feminine, here are some alternate fonts to choose from. Please specify the alternate font when ordering.



There are many "extras" with this design and I will switch out fonts as needed. Please note the new wrap around address label that includes space for the recipient's address as well as a return address sticker that wraps onto the back of the envelope!

Please email me with any questions or to place an order!

PEACOCK Recipe Card Shower Invitation

I recently got a request for a recipe card shower invitation using a peacock feather with a purple and aqua color combination. Just like my other recipe card designs, the invitation is perforated so it is easy for the recipients to remove and bring to the shower. In this case, although I changed the wording a bit, I actually provided A1 size envelopes with this set that are being sent with the invitations so people can mail in their recipes. That is such a thoughtful idea! Let me know if you would like to do the same!

Although not related, I have yet to add a whole wedding invitation suite I did last month using a very similar theme. Peacocks must be popular. :)

Colors and font styles customizable upon request.

FLAG — 4th of July Picnic Invitation

I am very blessed to live in a wonderful neighborhood community. We even have a social committee that plans functions and outings. I happen to help out on this committee and love coming up with invitation designs for some of our larger gatherings. (Fall Party invitation from 2011)

This design is actually based on a design for a 4th of July Birthday BBQ that I recently did for a client that was not selected. I made some changes and am pleased with how it turned out for our purposes.

It can be printed as a 5x7, 4x6 flat card set or postcard. Alternatively, a digital file (for email web distribution only) is available for $15. I've used the digital version as the event photo for the Facebook event that was created for this party. If you place a $20 print order, I will provide the digital file for free.

Email me to place your July 4th order!
Wording is completely customizable. Also, if you prefer to have solid stars instead of the grilling icons, just let me know.

BRIGHT AUTUMN Wedding Suite

The bride & groom wanted to use bright colors for their fall wedding: aqua, orange and brown. They also specifically wanted the background of the invitations to be chocolate brown. We ended up going with a bright "Tiffany" blue pocket-fold to house the invitation and inserts. The invitation itself is backed in a tangy orange. To keep printing costs down, the invitations were printed digitally and on a natural paper with a full solid bleed. The corners are rounded throughout.

The inserts were a bit of a challenge because obviously guests needed to be able to write on a light color, but I wanted to make sure that the "nested" effect within the pocket-fold was still dark. I'm pleased with how it turned out and is wrapped nicely with a bright orange wrap and a "seal" of the couple's name.

Alice in Wonderland Garden SHOWER

When I got the request for this whimsical bridal shower invitation (that would also be cute for a baby) I wasn't sure of my direction or concept. However, I now LOVE this whimsical invitation that is open to tons of creative color schemes!  (sunset and snow cone are shown) It is available in single sided or double sided and although I recommend using it as a 5x7, it can also be ordered as a 4x6. Be sure to read the adorable poem that my client wrote for the front of the double-sided version!
I've already designed several thank you cards (flat and a fancy fold-over version) as well as address stickers. The stickers are sold per sheet and come in 2" and 2.5" sizes. There are 20 stickers per sheet for 2" and 12 for the 2.5".
