celebrating major milestones

i think all birthdays are special and worthy of a celebration. but major milestones are different. they are like the mark of a new chapter… the start of something even greater… and definitely worthy of custom invitations!

here are two invitations i recently worked on… one for a 60th and another for a 70th birthday celebration.  both very different in colors and themes, but both very elegant and classy like the women they are celebrating.

if you’re interested in custom birthday invitations, please feel free to contact me.

custom made to order

happy first day of september…

the days seem to go by faster and the months are starting to just roll into one another. this past month, my weekends were filled with a little R&R and filling etsy orders during the week. i had a few more custom made simplewear orders than the average, so i thought i’d share a few of the fun designs.

this “little bizzzy bee” design was inspired by a bee themed baby shower for the mother-to-be. now everyone can know who this little bizzzy bee belongs to.

it seems exciting enough when you are able to share a pregnancy with your best friend. imagine how much more exciting it is when you’re both having little girls? it’s a given that the 2 little girls will be BFF’s as well. so this would make them BFF to the second degree!

my little cousin recently had a superhero themed party for his 5th birthday and i thought this shirt would be an absolutely perfect gift and an awesome shirt for his first day of kindergarten.

when you’ve got a beautiful strong name like, zachary bruce morse, you almost have to let the whole world know and since little baby zach is too little to tell everyone himself, this little onesie will do the job for him.

if you like any of these designs, would like to purchase or have an idea you’d like applied to a onesie or t-shirt, feel free to email me for more details or visit my etsy shop for other design options.

triple threat

the simplewear twin sets have been a great hit and i received several inquiries on triplet sets at the renegade craft fair.  so since then the ideas have been flowing… here are 2 new sets i created specifically for triplets.

“hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil” by simplewear on Etsy

i think the “hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil” makes for a great little set for any 3 monkeys: siblings, cousins or even for the new family (mommy, daddy and baby)!  email me if you want more info on customizing this design on adult size tees and tanks.

hey lady…

here is another custom baby shower invitation i recently did. it’s a slight twist to the shower flowers design i did back in march.

i decided to go with more primary colors to suit the style of the mama-to-be a little better.

i also incorporated her favorite bug, a ladybug, which fit real nicely with the wording on the invitation.

i’m really lovin’ this cute new little ladybug so it may appear on other stationery goods and possibly on a simplewear onesie.  so be on the look out…

jenny + peter : a perfect union wedding invitations

i believe wedding invitations help set the theme of your special day. whether you decide to go super formal or simply casual, your invitation is the first glimpse of what your guests will be expecting on your special day. and definitely something that reflects your sense of style.

as i was designing jenny & peter’s wedding invitations, it was very clear that their wedding celebration will be a very formal and exquisite event. the use of creme paper stock with gold metallic paper and ink introduce the very upscale choice of their wedding colors and their choice to do a pocket envelope style invitation with a postcard reply card still give it a very modern feel.

doing a postcard style reply card means you also save a little on postage stamps. unfortunately, the only current $.28 postcard stamp available right now is an image of a polar bear.  now, little details like that mean the world to me.  so it was great to know my client felt the exact same way when we decided to go with the $.44 wedding ring stamps.

sometimes it’s worth spending that little extra to make something look that much better.

the request to have an image of 2 rings intertwined made for a perfect monogram with jenny & peter’s initials, which i think also symbolizes a great union of the two together.

the current $.61 wedding stamp also fit perfectly with the style and color of the wedding invitation.  i just love when things like that fit so perfectly together!
