April showers bring... babies!

I had the privilege to design a very sweet little man's baby announcements a few months back. Though I haven't met baby Holden yet, I can't wait to do so! 


Holden's mom Chelsie, an amazing photographer from Nebraska, had a specific look in mind for her new little man's announcements: a unique look & style with vintage flair.  Behold, the final product:

Thanks for the amazing opportunity Chelsie (and Brock)!

With a new year comes a new work space!

After much thought and reorganization, finally my studio work space is finished! Complete with large work table, sewing station and industrial grade paper cutter, all in the amazing color duo of Tiffany blue (teal to most people) and coral. And one more thing - something no work space (or hard-working mom) can do without... a fainting chair! 


Now you can see where all the 'magic' happens! Enjoy!

Below is my all-time favorite photo of my sweet little men that I had to include somewhere! This photo doesn't do it justice, but it really is amazing!

Saving the best for last: my crystal chandelier, 'dream' window and fainting chair!

Thanks for visiting!

Creep on by... to the bug birthday!

I was so excited when approached by a good friend to design her son's 4th birthday invitations. Her only request: he's having a BUG birthday! Having never drawn bugs before, I knew this would be a challenge, but one I was anxious to take on. After sending a few design options, Owen got to choose his favorite, which happened to be one of my fav's too.

So, to Owen, I hope you have a fabulous creepy, crawly birthday and thank you for letting me be a part of it!!

It's off to the races!

Earlier this year I was asked to design a set of custom invitations for a Kentucky Derby Soiree, to coincide with the actual events of the Derby in May. Settling on a color scheme of sparkly golds & Tiffany blue (with a hint of bling), I created what I consider to be one of the most classic representations of my artistic style. I was so fortunate to have the opportunity to work with such great clients on this project and to let the creativity run wild!

A note from the past

There's something to be said about old fashioned note writing, especially in the era of texting, emails & immediate communication. I've had the privilege of designing custom notecards for a number of clients this summer, each custom and one-of-a-kind. They're perfect for birthdays, house-warmings, baby showers, teachers, grandparents, etc. And, with the recent addition of bold & bright envelopes to match, they definitely make a statement in the mailbox! Each set includes 10 flat or folded cards, packaged in a clear box and tied with a mini bow. 

Flat card set $ 18

Folded card set $ 22
