Chalkboard {wedding} Save-the-Date

A beautiful couple, and idea.

The newly engaged couple held a framed chalkboard during their engagement photo session.

I dressed up the look a bit by using an additional chalkboard texture and appropriate fonts. The concept is carried over onto the back seamlessly. The couple will use light (silver or white) ink/paint to address the postcards and can take advantage of the reduced postcard-rate postage on these 4x6 cards.

Barbeque / Cookout Invitation

This was designed at a couples shower invitation, but could easily be adapted for a baby shower, birthday, etc. Serving drinks out of Mason jars is a big (and very cute) trend right now. This invitation ties into that country-style decor seamlessly.

EMAIL ME to order or with questions. If ordering, please provide event details, size preference (4x6 or 5x7), quantity needed, and any special requests.

This young lady is so involved and has an extremely bright future ahead of her. Her graduation invitation/announcement features a stunning photo with inset typography on the front and an organized collage highlighting her many interests and hobbies on the back. There is also a space on the back that lists her college plans. Congratulations, Ellen.

Clothes Line & Stripes ENGAGEMENT PARTY

This engagement party invitation is a lot of fun! Use 1-3 pictures on the design, especially perfect if you were able to capture the proposal on camera!

The colors are completely customizable.

EMAIL ME to order or with questions.

Royal Princess BIRTHDAY


I don't know many little girls that don't love Cinderella or any excuse to wear a princess dress!

This invitation has a royal flair that any little girl will love. The pink color is customizable and blue is a great alternative if young princes are also included at the party/gala! The whole look is very regal with the antique gold-brown gate, carriage & text.

I also love the "wax seal" stickers. They can be coupled with the return address or just stuck on the seam if you are handing the invitations out.

EMAIL ME to order and please specify the size, color choice and quantity needed. All text is customizable.

Prehistoric, Not Extinct — Birthday Invitation

This invitation has a lot of character and added charm being printed on a kraft coverstock. The theme was my client's idea and I think it is perfect for a masculine, milestone birthday.

The coordinating, colored envelope is available for $.20 per envelope or a dark red would also be a nice option. The sets come with white envelopes included. Return address printing is also $.20 per envelope.

EMAIL ME to order or if you have questions.

A little lady turning one.

It has been about 5 months since I took photos for someone else. I much prefer taking pictures outside and when you live in Michigan, although winter pictures are beautiful, I prefer the other 3 seasons. :)

This little lady is absolutely adorable and her mom and dad wanted some pictures a few days prior to her first birthday.

Here are just a few.

It can also be altered to be a "Rock Around the Clock" shower with "times" (bath time, dinner time, bed time, etc) written in the clock.

OWL — Look whoooo's turning ONE!


I've seen this theme for a birthday several places and think it is super cute. Owls are very popular now and it is a lot of fun to change out the colors (completely customizable)! This 4x6 or 5x7 birthday invitation highlights a photo between two branches with bright green leaves. The leaf is even carried into the name and used as an apostrophe!

A full price list is available to the right or email me if you are viewing this from your phone and I'll send it to you!

I've also included a sample of the boy version of the same invitation...super cute. You must provide a high resolution image that is horizontal.

LUAU — Birthday Invitation

First birthdays tend to be big celebrations....for the parents as much as for the child....you survived the first year! A luau is a fantastic party theme that has tons of easy-to-purchase decorations and fun bright colors. (If your child is not turning one, it is easy to change out the number!)

I recently created another version of this popular design. When ordering please specify your design preference (with our without the surfboard).
I am also happy to work up coordinating thank you cards, stickers, banners, etc. with no additional design fee.

I just added this design to my NealonDesign Etsy store. You can easily purchase the digital file or printed invitations through THIS LINK. The return address printing and colored envelopes are not listed in the drop-down menu, but I am happy to set up a custom listing just for you if you would like those "extras".

If you have any other questions, please EMAIL ME!

NAUTICAL Wedding Suite

This wedding invitation suite turned out beautifully.

The bride and groom are actually getting married on a tall ship, so the theme is perfect.
I used the anchor on each piece using a different icon within the wheel. The groom wanted a skull and cross bones (or swords) on the rsvp card, so this was a great way to include it and still fit within the clean lines and elegant feel of a formal invitation. The invitation itself uses a monogram I created for the couple. The "additional information" card highlights the date of the event and the "fun continues" card features a silhouette of a grill.

The navy and "sour apple" or lime green of this suite really pops! She opted for the brightly colored envelopes which is so fun because it is as if the recipient is even getting a little gift in the mail when the invitation arrives! The same is true for the bride and groom as they get their response cards back in the mail!

If you are interested in this suite, please know that the colors are completely customizable, as are the inserts and wording. The cost of these invitations has many variables, but I am happy to provide a quote to you based on the specifics of your suite.

EMAIL ME to order or with questions.
