Even though we are well past the holidays, I thought I'd still share this custom Christmas party invitation because you can really change the colors and use it for a party anytime of the year.
When Erin contacted me about the design, she knew that she wanted to use a chevron pattern and the font, Strangelove. I enjoyed playing with those two components.
I also created coordinating food signs for the party, and you can see them on her blog. Thanks Erin!
Carter and I just got back from a whirlwind trip to Costa Rica with some friends. The couple we went with had a friend that lived there, and doing things from a local's perspective was so fun and different than anyway that I have traveled before. I have to say, we wouldn't have done half of what we did if we had gone alone. I just loaded my photos into my computer and I thought these three photos were a great highlights of our trip. Sunsets...
and fishing...
Don't you love the difference in our fish? Oh, he was a happy guy. But I caught the most fish (3), even if that one only gets points for looking weird... and being THE smallest fish in the entire ocean. I think it was smaller than the bait we were catching.
I had a client that liked these baby shower invitations and coordinating menus so much, she ordered them twice. The first round, the colors were blue, grey and khaki, but this time, it was navy and green.
There was probably a year-ish between the orders and it's always nice when I can look back on a design that I did a long time ago and NOT be horrified. That's not always the case, I've been cleaning up my hard drive and let's just say very few avoided the trash bin!

Have you heard of a baby 'sprinkle' before? I have to say, even with invitations being my business, I just learned of this type of shower a few months ago through my sister. Then, as luck would have it, I designed two in a matter of weeks. Basically, it's a small scale baby shower for baby #2 or #3... a way of celebrating without registering for gifts, etc. Pretty cute.
This particular 'sprinkle' didn't have a theme, and I love designing for those types of parties. No hard guidelines, so the freedom to play around with type. I also enjoyed playing with pink, because it seems like I've been doing so many things for boys lately!
