Tree Carving Wedding Invitation Suite

This is a simple suite using a flat panel invitation and rsvp card with envelope.

 I was given this photo of the cake to use as inspiration. They are planning to use burlap, mason jars, etc.

I'm really pleased with how everything turned out, and I especially like these rehearsal dinner invitations that will be inserted into several of the invitations.

The colors are completely customizable and this design can be used during any season since no leaves are showing!

Monogram & Stripes Bridal Shower invitation

I just love this design. It was originally a wedding invitation option that wasn't selected and I modified it for a bridal shower. It is clean, modern, and fancy.

The color options are endless and it can be dressed up even more by using a white metallic paper and envelope.

EMAIL ME to order or if you have questions about this design!

BaByQ Baby Shower Invitation

Baby showers are not always just for the mother-to-be. This is a great way to include the whole family in an outdoor, laid back atmosphere.

This invitation is available as a 4x6 or 5x7 and the colors are completely customizable. Decorate with burlap, mason jars, bunting, etc. It all coordinates with this fun design!

HOP to IT — Baby Shower Invitations


These shower invitations were designed to coordinate with the beautiful bedding set by Land of Nod, named Hop to It. I tried to keep the design clean and simple, just like the bedding itself.

The invitations are available as a 4x6 or 5x7 and come with plain white envelopes. Upgrade to pink envelopes (5x7 only) for $.20 each or add return address printing to the white envelopes (either size) for $.20 each.

These flat or fold-over thank you cards are also available for purchase in any quantity.

Pricing for invitations and thank yous are on the far right side of the blog. (web version)

EMAIL ME to order or with inquiries.

Wedding Gift Tags

This little poem, or a version of it has become very popular in recent days. I really like the message and there are a lot of ways to make it stylistically interesting.

These are double sided, 3.5x5 cards with a hole for string to tie around favors, etc.

The fleur de lis pattern is appropriate for New Orleans, but also easy to adjust for a different location.

The cost is $.70 per card with hole punched. Does not include string.

EMAIL to order or inquire.

ELMO — Birthday Invitation

Who doesn't love this red, fuzzy guy?

A fun, Elmo-specific invitation that is easily customizable to different names and years. I especially love the line at the bottom about being brought to you by the letter, K and the number, 2!

The design is available as a 4x6 (shown) or 5x7. I am happy to work up flat or fold-over thank you cards as well as stickers or whatever else you may have in mind.

The return address printing (shown) is $.20 per envelope.

EMAIL ME with questions or to place an order.

Golfer's Wedding — Invitation Suite

These invitations were designed for a couple in their sixties that share a love of golfing.

The playful wording was provided by the client and I wanted to create something fun that appropriately fit with the text. I created "grass" with an offset chevron pattern and created a couples monogram to use on the golf ball.

I love that the design is a lot of fun yet also formal enough for a wedding.

I also believe that the design elements could very easily be applied to other events like a birthday!

Nautical Mickey Birthday

It is hard to believe that I designed this little guy's birth announcements a year ago. Time flies!

I just adore clean, nautical-style stripes, especially in this color palette. Apparently Mr. Hayes just loves Mickey mouse, so adding the iconical ears and using a Disney-style script for his name added the Mickey touches his mom was looking for.

I just love the dark aqua helm with little waves on the inside. It makes this perfect for a pool-side party or anything near water.

Happy Birthday, Hayes!

EMAIL ME to order. This is available as a 4x6 or a 5x7 (shown). The return address printing is available for $.20 per envelope. Red envelopes are also available for $.20 each.

Taking a Break

As of today, I am taking the blog down for a while. 

It is an amazing blessing, but my volume has become a bit unmanageable. I am so thankful my client's support of me and my business, but I need to catch up, take a breath, and enjoy the summer with my boys (4.5 & 9 months).


If you have already contacted me or have an existing order, I will most definitely still complete your project. 


I encourage you to "like" Nealon Design on Facebook to view my work (in albums) and for updates.


You are still welcome to email allison@nealondesign.com with inquiries. I will still be working on a limited basis. 


I will  be back up and running again (with lots of new stuff), but I'm not willing to provide a firm date.

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.

ELLEN Graduation

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.

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!

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.
