march madness

it sure has been madness around here!

the month is already half over and this is only my first blog entry for the month. reason being that i’ve been busy with tons of projects makes it all the better though. it’s been the end and start of catalog season for 2 of my clients, my etsy shops (inacard.etsy.com & simplewear.etsy.com) have remained consistent with orders and i’ve also had several custom requests for both invitations and onesies. before the month slips away, i want to make sure i share a few images from recent projects i’ve completed.

i had a request for the fun layered cupcake invitations i designed a while back. it was fun creating these special invitations once again.

i turned one of my new little invites into a big 5″x7″, which allowed for more information to be included on the invite.

my great aunt theresa recently turned 80 and i helped my cousin nadia create these fun party favors for each guest. theresa is known to be one of “the best” cooks in our family so it was such a clever idea to gift everyone with spices and a recipe of chicken satay, which calls for all 3 spices in the ingredients.

each spice was also marked with an image of theresa during different times of her life.

Chlo+E had a alex & wonderland themed bat mitzvah party, where once again their dessert table was nothing short of fabulous. besides the usual buffet tags and labels i normally design for them, they added some fun character cut-outs as well to the spread.

the girls recently launched their new website, so make sure to check them out!

live your own life

a quote by Steve Jobs:

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

a sweet 18

nickelodeon teen queen, victoria justice, recently turned 18 and the girls from Chlo+E totally out did themselves with a dessert, fruit AND candy table for her big birthday bash at Tru Hollywood.

here are a few pics Chlo+E shared with me and a few close-up shots of the buffet tags i designed for this fab event.

i played off of the fun sexy burlesque theme with a lace and fishnet design.

and here is a pic of the birthday girl herself, victoria justice

i ♥ stationery!

i love all things stationery related.  so when christine contacted me regarding additional stationery items for her business, christine chang photography, i was super excited.

a while back i revamped her company’s look with a new logo, business cards and a really cool usb card. it’s always fun designing for someone who shares a similar taste in design, ’cause i pretty much get to design whatever i like and 98% of the time, they will always like it. makes my job real easy breezy and really fun.

here’s a look into the whole set with a few close up shots showcasing some fun aspects of this custom stationery set.

a blank notecard is always good to have around for a handwritten note of thanks.  paired with a colored envelope, it’ll turn a simple message into something very special.

jotting down notes or sending a quick little memo is so much more fun on pretty paper…

i think a custom seal is like the cherry on top of a sundae.

if you’re looking for custom stationery for your business or even for personal use, feel free to contact me for more info.
