Moving Postcards


Remember that lovely red and orange Fall wedding invitation that I posted this October? Well, my dear friends Mike and Jean have been enjoying married life and just bought a new house! I designed moving postcards for them. I found a Mii cartoon character that resembled Mike, so I had to follow through with the idea of creating look alike cartoon faces for them! This example lists their city and state only to protect their privacy of course; the real version lists their new address.

Last Friday I got to see their house, and it's coming along nicely. I can't wait for them to get settled in. 'm sure they will make use of their deck this spring and summer too! Congratulations you two! Xoxo!

My Wedding: Save The Date


Things are really exciting for me right now as I am planning for my own wedding. We have about 6.5 months to go, and all our visual pieces will start being produced! Chris and I recently mailed out our Save the Date magnets. I've been waiting to finally post it on here! Our Save the Date magnet is one of my projects I am most proud of.

This is just the beginning of my "My Wedding" blog section. Tune in for more! With 6 months to go, I'm sure things will be coming out quickly. At least that's the hope!

Notecards as Bridesmaid Gifts









I'm starting to see the perks for designing stuff for people I know; it leads to other people seeing my work! I was pleased to hear from a bride-to-be who saw some notecards I made. She had a cute idea to give custom notecards to her bridesmaids for their gifts. After receiving some details about each girl, I dove in and came up with 6 original designs for each of them. Each set of cards came with color coordinating envelopes.

Thanks for working with me, Kelly! I had a lot of fun with these different personalities. I hope you have the wedding of your dreams in March!

Personalized notecards really do make great gifts. Contact me, and I can design a notecard for someone that no one else will ever have!

Silhouette Note Card Gifts Revealed





I designed four note cards as Christmas gifts and wanted to post them right away, but of course, I had to wait to give them! This year I made silhouette note cards for my family. The dogs and cat are their/our actual pets, and the moose is just a non-specific character (my anut and uncle are part of a moose lodge). Each set of cards came with color coordinating envelopes. Obviously I really enjoyed making these, and it saved a lot of money too!

Doggie Silhouette: Chihuahua



The Chihuahua is the second breed for my doggie silhouette cards! My sister has one named Max, and I always get a kick out of his ears. I knew the ears would amuse me, so I used a picture of him as my chihuahua model!

Doggie silhouettes are here!



I have had visions of creating a line of cards using doggie silhouettes. I began with a super biased choice... the min pin! My Luna inspired me. Though, she does not have cropped ears. I thought using cropped ears would make the breed more recognizable. I cannot wait to make more of these with other breeds. If you want a certain breed, or better yet, a silhouette of your very own pooch, let me know! Expect to see more of these.
