| cinnamon cards
and gift tags |
| my customer
requested special birthday cards with "Feliz
Cumpleaños" on them. the image was inspired by her dog,
cinnamon. to give the cards a little extra sparkle, glitter
was added to the dog's collar. they turned out so cute, we
also decided to turn them into matching gift tags. |

| baby shower
invitation |
| a very special
baby shower invitation needed to be designed for two very special people.
it had to be creative, original and personalized. my first idea
was to draw the expectant couple in a room with balloons and
gifts. it was cute, but it didn't look "just right".
it needed more. i saw the bedding that they had picked for
the baby, a zoo theme for a boy and a pink & green floral pattern
for a girl. they also were going to paint the baby's room a
sage green. i took those elements and created a nursery for
them to be pictured in complete with their wall color and a
customized border. then i added a dresser with baby items on
it, and the original idea of the balloons and gifts to make it
more festive. everyone loved the design, especially the couple the
shower was for. and as you can see, there's no doubt it's
them! |

| wedding program 1 |
| the wedding colors
were lavender and green, the theme was apples and roses, and the
bride and groom wanted a program cover that incorporated them and
their dog in little scenes. they provided the words and i
came up with the design shown below. it looked fabulous in
print. wedding programs are
available via custom order only and are printed on a specialty
paper of your choice. |

2009
- mexican jumping bean birthday |
| a repeat customer
contacted me for a custom birthday invitation. she already
had the theme of a mexican jumping bean along with the wording,
had bought maracas as party favors for the kids, and from her past
orders i knew what she liked. since the invitation was for a
two year old boy, i drew the middle bean very youthful looking.
and because it was a birthday invitation, i used classic mexican
elements such as the colors, piñata, and sombreros for the fiesta
element. the finished product is
item #2009 - mexican jumping bean birthday. |

2012 -
little fisherman |
| i worked very
closely with my customer on this little fisherman 1st birthday
theme. we discussed ideas at length, and i came up with most
of the design. when we regrouped, we decided to change some
of the colors and add scenery in the background. the
shoreline greatly enhanced what i had already done. since
the child's birthday is in october, she wanted the trees to be
shown in fall colors. because not all little fishermen are
fall babies, i then created a spring/summer version of the
invitation as well. |

4004 - flower pot baby &
4005 - flower pot baby girl (also
seen in new baby) |
| a baby shower was
planned with a floral theme. my customer wanted invitations
to match with a baby emerging from a flower pot. i created
two designs for her to choose from, a more realistic looking daisy
and a retro looking daisy. she loved them both but because
they didn't know what gender the baby was at the time, they opted
to go with item #4004, flower pot baby. |

26001
- sports graduation |
| two brothers were
graduating at the same time - one from middle school, one from
high school. both were heavily involved in sports, and their
invitation was to reflect that. their mother suggested using
their school mascots. both were easy enough to draw and
worked well for a sports themed invitation. but it was
missing something. that's when i came up with the idea to
use the boys' jerseys on it too. both the boys and mom loved
the end result - item #26001, sports graduation. |
