Inspiration Home RI proofs
Posted in: branding, business cards
This was a RI option presented to the client, they wanted to explore flying pigs and boxwood wreaths for their identity for an amazing home interior design business. This project was collaborated on between myself, one of our freelancer’s Sarah and an employee Makayla and was a really unique concept to work on. Ultimately the client ended up going in a different direction, but I just couldn’t pass up showing you the flying pigs!

Posted in: announcements
These were custom letterpress baby announcement based off of the little elephant gift tags for sale in the shop. Done as a 2 color print and paired with matching envelopes they were so fun and adorable, I just love doing baby announcements :)
Also included in the order were custom thank you notes with baby’s name and the elephant to the side, man I think these are so precious, my poor kids were deprived seeing that I never did announcements for any of them b/c they were all totally unexpected deliveries!

School Mascot Grad Announcements
Posted in: announcements
LaKiesha wanted to order the monogram grad announcements but replace monogram with her school mascot. The great thing about university and the internet is that it’s easy to find a high-resolution .tif of the logo or even better an .eps
These were printed with Spruce ink and paired with matching envelopes on 110# paper. A6 (4.5×6″) and customization made these a perfect announcement for completing the task!

These shipped recently to Anne, and were a variation on the 1 color puppy love letterpress baby announcements. I love it when clients pick a color other than the traditional pink and blue and this chartreuse/grey combo was so adorable.
This was an A6 (4.5×6″) set of 50, paired with matching printed envelopes. Letterpress printed on 110# paper and cut with 1/4″ rounded corners.

Anda Marie, Biz cards
Posted in: business cards
These letterpress business cards shipped awhile back for Anda Marie. She already had her branding established but needed her business collateral printed and wanted it on the super-thick paper. She also needed a little help with her layout, and wanted to tie in a wood-grain pattern as her photography style is very natural, honest and artistic.
To view more of Anda Marie’s beautiful photography, you can click on the image above to see this incredible wedding, and visit her blog or website to learn more about her services. Thanks Anda for being so fun to work with and for letting me print your cards. Let me know when you’ll be needing more!

Wedding Proofs for Demi
Posted in: Wedding
BRIEF from Demi: If anything I would say our style is Tuscan elegance. Our ceremony is outdoors and our reception indoors in a barrel room/wine cave. I don’t want too much of a winery/vineyard theme going on in the invitation, but rather something elegant that sort of catches the whole winery vibe.
While working on these designs we wanted to explore damask pattern and to juxtapose typography with a simple body layout and elegant script for hierarchy significance.
Often when designing, I go through a series of steps to establish hierarchy within a piece. Wedding invitations are easy as usually the bride & groom’s names are of the most importance. Followed by the Bride’s parents (or the hosting family), and then, if included, the groom’s family. Next the reception/ceremony information and then date/time/venue information.
Not all of these areas in a layout will receive different typographic treatments but it’s good to consider the importance of each element in a piece and where it stands in relation to the next element within the design.

Lemons with Martha pt. 2

There is nothing so delicious as lemonade made with real lemon juice. In this recipe, we start with a simple syrup that can be kept in the refrigerator up to a month. Use both rosemary and mint, or according to your taste, use just one or the other. The simple syrup serves as the sweetener for the fresh lemonade. Use according to individual taste.

Posted in: branding
So you may remember the explorations for Jacqueline in her Guppiez branding package – or what about the Dandelionz identity exploration for her mass produced children’s clothing? After much feedback and refining, below we have her interior tags for each brand.
Included with the branding package and style sheet was logo, logo elements, typographic selection, and web colors for the web designer. She also received her logo files as working Adobe Illustrator files so she can use it for application and promotion in other media outlets.

Final Cards: KYD Designs
Posted in: business cards
Note my wedding ring there in the corner – yep still missing. This is tragic!!! Send me remembrance vibes please! Anyways, these cards were a blast to design. Kenyatta is a great artist, so good at so many things. She had typography established and her logo and my job was to utilize those elements to create a one of a kind layout.
Above are the press matches to her specified Pantone numbers. These letterpress cards were a 2/1 color job, with 1/4″ rounded corners. Printed on 600GSM/220# paper these were super substantial upon being finished.
Don’t you just love these bright colors? I felt like I was being transported back into the 80′s. Thanks Kenyatta for being so fun to work with and for really letting me explore some wild options for this card. On another note, has anyone seen the trailer for TRON Legacy? This tells you I’m a nerd because I totally can’t wait to see it. These cards totally bring me back to the Tron days! Okay, I’ve said totally WAY too many times in this blog post. I’m a dork.

Calligraphy Calling Card
Posted in: business cards
Below, another letterpress calligraphy calling card done for Laura. I liked how Kathryn embellished Laura’s last name with some leafs, really fitting! I can hardly stand it, my vacation is coming to an end so no more warm weather for at least another month. However, I’m ready to get back to work it’s been a wonderful break!
