{ New Work Tuesdays }

These animal parade thank you cards were not only super fun to work on but custom designed for a good friend of mine, as way to say "thank you" for all of the thoughtful gifts received to help celebrate the upcoming birth of her special little bundle. I can't wait to meet her!

I can't believe it has been so long since my last post, almost a whole month! My little snuggler loves attention, and well lets be honest I love giving her attention, so its a win win situation. As mentioned in my last post I wasn't quite happy with the baby announcements so I tweaked them just a little!

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE coral and pool together so I decided to change the background to a lovely white, which I think really makes the design elements stand out. The finished announcement is a poster inspired by modern design and simple shapes. The announcement folds into three parts. Upon opening the pool envelope our family and friends are greeted by the message "We are delighted to be introducing our baby girl", the next section depicts a super cute elephant adorned with her name, and a little sign "hello." Finally the last section includes all of the important details day, weight and length.

These announcements were so fun to make, I can't wait to send them to our loved ones! I hope they enjoy receiving them as much as I enjoyed working on them!

I think I will also add a little photo with each announcement as well!

Happy Friday Everyone, while my little one sleeps I will take a little bit of time to share her cute birth announcement with you all. I am not sure if this is the final design yet as I am still playing with colours. I was thinking of adding hints of blue or possibly even brown, or I may even try a different design. Its such an important design that I want it to be just perfect for our little miss.

For this specific design I was inspired by mid century posters. I wanted to create a poster announcement that had an unconventional shape, had a simple colour palette and was more illustrative. I also plan on including a snap shot of Kaisa with each poster.

Check back for the finished product!

{ Baby Shower Thank You Cards }

Happy Monday! I hope that everyone had a lovely weekend, especially our American friends who recently celebrated Thanksgiving. A while back I posted some super cute baby shower invites inspired by nesting dolls and autumn. Today I am following up that post with these darling Thank you cards. These Thank you cards correspond with the Baby shower invites, and continue the Nesting doll theme and the vibrant orange and purple palette.

Hope you enjoy these cards and the rest of your Monday!

{ " I Said Yes" Cupcake Recipe Invite }

{ Engagement Invite }

With September well on its way, weather getting a bit cooler and baking delicious fall desserts on my mind I thought it would be appropriate to share a recent Engagement invite that I had the pleasure of working on.

The bride envisioned something really different for the announcement for her upcoming engagement soirée. Something with a simple colour palette, black, white and a small pop of colour. She really wanted a design that reflected their unique personalities.

What I ended up creating was an invite inspired by a newspaper clipping, the bride took it one step further and provided me with a cute little recipe for "I said yes" cupcakes, with the details for the event following the recipe. This was a great project to work on and a lot of fun.

I hope to post the photos of this darling little engagement invite soon!

{ Floral inspired Thank You Card }

With summer coming to an end and fall just around the corner, I wanted to share a couple of floral inspired thank you cards that I worked on recently. The colours, and pretty flowers are reminiscent of a summer time garden.

{ Some Weekend Love }

Although the weekend is coming to a close and the week lies ahead of us, I wanted to post a little weekend love and something a bit cheery to help start the work week off on a good note. I am working on a new invitation suite, and wanted to post the Save the Date. I am excited about sharing this delightful tid bit. I hope to have more to post soon. Until then.
