Ann & Teddy
I am so excited to be designing wedding invitations for a close friend from college named Ann. Ann & Teddy are getting married this June at a country club in Yakima, WA and their colors are cobalt blue and sunshine yellow. Overall they want their wedding to look and feel sophisticated, but have fun summery hints such as decorating with lemons. Here is a first pass at their invitations.
Homemade v-day cards
Here’s a cute idea I came across on Supermarket.com for homemade Valentine’s Day cards. Enjoy!
Embroidered card
I found this adorable elephant card on Etsy today. I love the button accent and the simplicity of the animal shape. I might just have to get out my thread and needle this week and make some of my own for Valentine’s Day. Enjoy!

Nature & yoga baby shower invites
Here is a sneak peak of the baby shower invitations I am designing for Kristy Walker of Studio Verite Photography. The keywords she gave me that best describes her vision is yoga, buddha baby, recycled materials, om symbol, pattern and natural gender neutral colors. 1. Focuses on the Buddha baby & mehndi (which is a skin decoration in South Asia that is applied for special occasions) 2. Plays with two lotus flowers that resemble mother and child and is round to represent pregnancy and the circle of life 3. Is the outline of a baby bump with playful type that gives info about the shower.
One Love Photo
I went to the Seattle Wedding Show this past weekend and fell in love with beeswax collage art produced by Heather & Jon at One Love Photo. They print photos onto tissue paper and adhere it to a piece of wood, then pour a mixture of beeswax and resin on top. It creates such a unique and interesting way to preserve and display wedding photos. I can’t wait for them to create some for me =) Also, if you are looking for a wedding photographer I would highly recommend them! They are not only incredibly talented at what they do, but they are creative as well. They shoot all types of ways (digital, medium format film, homemade lenses or even with a couple of toy plastic cameras) to create a soft & dreamy vintage look and feel. Check out all of their work on their website here.
Nature & yoga style board
Gayle O’Donnell from All About Weddings & Celebrations presented at the Association of Bridal Consultants meeting last night and talked about free style boards on dessy.com. I decided to give it a try and put one together for one of my clients. I am designing baby shower invitations for my wedding photographer Kristy Walker of Studio Verite Photography and couldn’t be more thrilled! The keywords she gave me that best describes her vision is yoga, buddha baby, recycled materials, om symbol, pattern and natural colors (focusing on green because they don’t know the sex of the baby). Below is the style board I pulled together (click here to view it on dessy.com).
Luke & Amanda’s wedding invitations
Luke & Amanda’s bird themed wedding invitaitons are now complete. I printed them Sunday and we are all really happy with how they turned out.
