Katie's Wedding Invitations

I worked with this really awesome girl when I was with D magazine named Katie. She was wonderful enough to let me do the invitations for her upcoming May wedding. And I have to say, it was so much fun. It seems like with each invite I do, the most recent one is always my favorite. And Katie's is no exception! She knew exactly what she wanted and I was able to find paper that matched her bridesmaid's dresses perfectly. I'm so excited to show them off to you here! They were perfectly customized to Katie's theme and her and Seth's personality. I know they loved them and so do I!

These invites were 6.25"x6.25" and for the green overlay we used 80# Mohawk Via Felt Sage. For the inside cards (which included a save-the-date which was mailed out separately, the main invite card and a postcard response card) we used 100# Neenah Classic Crest in Classic Natural. Katie and Seth did the monogram stamp on the front which was the perfect finishing touch! Here are some highlights:

Peachy Keen

I just wanted to update you all on my first giveaway winner's blog for the Davis Family! I updated it for her tonight and I think she likes it! Let me know what you all think. I call it "Peachy Keen." I'm working on the other winner tonight and hope to have that done this week! Sarah, you're next!

A Header in Progress

I'm doing a blog theme for CQT and wanted to show you all what I have so far. I wanted to add some more elements to it but kind of like the simplicity. I love the cutout pics though. Hopefully I'll be able to do more headers with cutouts because they just add so much dimension and fun! Let me know what you guys think! And don't forget to enter my giveaway!

More Header Examples

I did a few for Shannon before she decided on the look she liked best. I was also experimenting with some scrapbook kits I had downloaded and I think these turned out totally cute. I also tried changing up the kits to different colors so that they stand out from people who use those same kits. It's really my goal to design headers for everyone that don't look like all of the other ones out there! So keep that in mind if you want a specific kit used to design your header. The color possibilities are nearly endless!

My Third Post of the Day—A GIVEAWAY!

I know, I'm jumping on the giveaway bandwagon. But really I'm just trying to get some momentum going for this site and for my hopefully future blog design/web/design business! So if you would like a custom header, leave a comment with the following:

Your Name
Email Address
Blog Address

Just like that! This contest is open to anyone and everyone. Any bloggers out there who'd like a new look go ahead and do it! Family and friends qualify too! The contest will run until Thursday at 9pm CST and one winner will be chosen at random and will receive one custom blog header and customization of your template to match if you wish! I will announce the winner on Friday morning. Good luck!

I will have more giveaways in the future so please keep looking back in! I will also be doing a huge before/after when the school district site redesign I am working on is finished! I will put up a post on my main blog when that happens!

Baby Shower Invitation

My niece is having a baby in June making me a GREAT AUNT for the THIRD time (not to mention another niece of mine is having baby #2 later this summer as well!) Come on girls, you're making me feel old! And both of you are older than me! haha Not by much though. :) This is the invite I am doing for Texas' baby shower. Yes, her name is Texas and she is awesome. They picked out a cute jungle theme for his nursery so I found a cute illustration I liked and created my own version of it. The main invite will be printed on white cardstock then adhered to a red textured cardstock backing and I'll round the corners of both. We can't wait for little Carson to arrive!

Keeping Up With the Heatons

I recently did this header and blog theme for a good friend of mine. (Be sure to check out her two adorable kiddos!) She's totally fun and now the colors and look of blog definitely reflect that!
