Colleen and Brad were married at the Desert Botanical Garden in March. Colleen shares my love of paper products, so we had a lot of fun designing her invites, programs, escort cards, etc. They were definitely modern and fun, but they were very clean and elegant at the same time. We had a circle theme throughout… even the menus were round! The programs had a circle die cut in the front with their monogram showing through.

The day was flawlessly coordinated thanks to Sandy of In Awe Weddings. I was able to see the finished product since I assisted with the wedding that day! Thanks to Cristi Owen for sharing her amazing photographs. She did a great job and was really fun to work with!




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!

Melanie and Kirk used bright, vibrant colors for their wedding at the Boojum Tree. Sandy Walker of In Awe Weddings helped them create a beautiful event. Melanie and Kirk used a red pocket with a bright paper flower on the outside flap for their wedding invitation. Inside, we created custom graphics in red, yellow, and green. We carried their artwork through to program fans, reserved signs, and thank you notes. Melanie was such a happy bride! Her bridal party shared her excitement for every aspect of the wedding. These amazing photos were taken by Emily Estfan. If you would like to see more, make sure you visit her blog at http://emephotography.bigfolioblog.com/.

Julia and Mike were a really fun, energetic couple. It was impossible not to smile while spending time with them. Julia loves polka dots, so we brought them into some of the other paper products. We did fuchsia menus with jewels, circle escort cards which we hung from a tree, and fun signs and stickers for their cookie bar. It was a fabulous and fun wedding with a lot of bling and color! A special thank you to Renee Bergman who was their wedding photographer and provided me with the pictures!

One of my favorite elementary school memories was creating boxes for our Valentine’s Day Party. I loved using shoe boxes because they could hold a lot of cards and candy. Valentine’s Day is the only day that allows the use of pink and red at the same time. So, I’m mixing them while I can! I designed some 3.5×5 Valentines for you to send to your friends and loved ones. I’ve had people telling me that time slipped away from them and they were unable to send Christmas cards. There is still plenty of time to order and send Valentines. These are small, economical, and much more fun than the ones that come in a cardboard box.
