Remember these two? They’ll soon be a family of three! A little one is on her way to join their family, and I get to host a baby shower for them. Sam & Wendi share a love of music, so I decided to use a vintage record design as my inspiration for the invitation. The nursery will be painted a sage green, so I decided to use that color for the invitation as well. Excited to celebrate with them!

Birthday Party Invitation: Ruth’s 90th

Since this is my very own grandmother’s 90th birthday, I pulled out all the stops and made something really special. Her favorite color is yellow (something I always remembered when I was little), so I made that my theme. My favorite part is the delicate flowers on the invitation; I often don’t take the time to make something quite so intricate, but thought it would be a great fit for this invitation. Happy almost birthday Nana!

Calligraphy: Andrea & Scott Wedding Invitations

I always enjoy adding custom touches to projects, adding some personalization for a special event. A lovely bride, Andrea, asked me to do the calligraphy for the wedding invitations she had already ordered. She chose a lovely and unique invitation layout and wanted an elegant touch to finish them off. I mixed up a custom navy blue calligraphy ink to match the wedding colors and the final piece turned out great.

One of my favorite things is to bring a client’s vision to life, to discuss their ideas and then develop designs based only on their ideas. It often will challenge me to produce something that is not my normal style and I really enjoy being stretched creatively. For this bridal shower, the host wanted a theme that is a bit more formal, and simple without being bland. Cream, taupe and rose create an elegant color palette that is enlivened by a geometric design motif. A touch of gold calligraphy ink finishes the set perfectly.

Design: Modern Calligraphy

Calligraphy has always been beautiful to me, but it seemed a little too formal, too aloof. In the past couple years, a new style being called “modern calligraphy” has started to make its way into invitation design. I was intrigued from the very beginning and finally decided to take the plunge and learn the skill and make it my own. I’m now proud to offer this as an additional service. Samples I’ve completed are below, I’m looking forward to tackling more extravagant projects as my skills strengthen in the future.

One of my absolute favorite things is celebrating with close friends. In this case, a new baby is joining the Deese family and I got to design and print invitations for the party. The theme chosen by the hostesses was “Welcome to the World” since the future nursery will be travel & map themed. I have fun spoiling my friends a bit, so I put some extra touches into this one, including map stickers and calligraphy for the envelopes, and matched the invitation set color scheme to the baby’s nursery. I am so excited to meet this little one!

Wedding Invitation: Shauna & Steve

This wedding invitation came together beautifully. It is definitely the most involved piece I’ve ever had the pleasure to design – letterpress printing, digital printing, handwritten calligraphy, wax seals and mounted photos (from their engagement session) were all just steps in the process to get to the final mailed piece. The bride and groom (friends of mine) also helped during printing and assembly, since the final piece was so complex.

For the design, the bride and the groom defined the style as “retro romantic” and wanted something that fit their wedding location, The Claremont Resort in Berkeley, CA. We ended up with a design that is clean and elegant, with a bit of art deco influence.
