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!

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.

Always a pleasure and challenge to design for people I know, mixing something from their personality into the invitations. This was no different, and I was so happy with the final set that went into the mail. So excited to welcome a sister-in-law into the family!

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!

The artwork inspiration for these screen printed invitations reflects the bride-to-be’s appreciation of pin-up artwork, which turned out to be a fun theme for a bridal shower.
Her absolute favorite color is pink, so I decided to turn it up a notch – to some nice fluorescent pink. An equally awesome color had to be found to hold up to such a hot color, so I chose to balance it with metallic gold. Even the envelopes sported a little bit of fanciness, hand-written calligraphy in gold ink.

Now that these are in the mail & the bride-to-be received her invitation, I can share them here! I enjoy sending surprises out in the mail, it’s so exciting!
I am so happy with how this card turn out, both the design and the ink colors. It’s always fun (and a great creative challenge) to design something for someone that I know, trying to capture their personality and preferences. For this invitation, I did a modern take on a bridal shower invitation, plenty of hearts to give a nod to the reason we’re celebrating, but in a more mature color theme and design. Keep an eye out for the matching party decor after the event.

A very fun invitation to print. The ink colors came out great & very vivid. It was fun to find a unique design to match the bride-to-be’s personality. I also got to teach some friends how to screen print while working on this project. Keep an eye out for pictures of all the matching party decorations in the future.

A custom screen printed invitation for a baby shower. I like the cute details to this card with the hearts, sweet without being overly girly. The pink was also the first time I mixed ink myself and the color came out beautifully.
