Thanks to EME Photography for the beautiful photos! Julie and JD were married at the Montelucia Resort in Paradise Valley. Julie wanted everything to reflect a vintage Hollywood feeling. It was coordinated by the amazing, hard-working Sandy Walker of In Awe Weddings. We designed some fun signs, programs, folded menus, beautiful place cards which went in jeweled frames, a seating chart board and thank you signs. Julie and JD also chose a black invitation pocket with flourishes that we carried throughout the entire suite of paper products and signs for the wedding.










My childhood Best Friend married another good childhood friend, Matt, on October 10, 2009. I was not only honored to be the matron of honor, but also to be the provider of their paper products. We created some really amazing items for her. It was a beautiful wedding, and the reception was held at the Kansas Cosmosphere. It is an amazing venue! We created booklet programs which were full of fun information about Kati & Matt. They also wrote sweet notes about their bridal party. They had a runner with a monogram we created, and really elegant menus as well. Thanks to Gaylon Bartel photography for the images. They are amazing photographers! They took photos of the awesome wedding invites, so I will have to try to get some of those!



One of my favorite new clients and I worked to design these AMAZING invitations. She needed to include a lot of information for a weekend full of events, so this design worked really well. We wrapped the box in a beautiful gold ribbon to create the finished look. I LOVE these.
Thanks Emily of EME Photography, for the photos.



I love Christmas! I love checking the mail every day to see the beautiful Christmas cards from friends and family. It is Fall (well hopefully after this weekend, the triple digit temps will go down here in AZ) and that means it is time to take family portraits. Whether you will have your photos taken by a pro or you will take them yourself, you will want a good one for your Holiday cards. I have clients that love sending cards before Thanksgiving, while some send them for New Year’s. December is a crazy month, so I highly recommend an early start. I included a preview of a couple of my designs. We can create an elaborate layered card, a tri-fold card with multiple photos, mini photo albums, or a simple and cost-effective custom photo card.
A huge thanks to Emily of EME Photography for the photos for my Christmas card samples!


Sarah and Jason were married on May 2nd in Michigan. Sarah and I worked across many miles to create invitations, programs, placecards, a seating board, menus, thank-you notes, favor cards, etc. For their invitations, we used a black pocket, ivory linen papers with fuchsia accents, and we placed a small rhinestone on the flourish on the inside of the invite. They used their monogram as a front label and also throughout the other paper products. We created custom menus with black and fuchsia borders. Their programs were elegant booklets with the ivory linen paper and black covers. We placed the monogram on the front and finished them with a fuchsia ribbon. They used the “D” from their monogram to create a really cool ice sculpture as well. I have missed the many long e-mails we sent back and forth, but Sarah happily reported that they had a fantastic wedding day. Thanks to JS Photography for the photos!
