Introducing Thomas Jackman

I recently had the honor of creating baby announcements to help Tom, Annie and Amelia welcome the newest member of their family ~ Thomas Jackman.

A photo of Thomas' tiny feet next to his big sister Amelia's is featured on the front of the panel announcement with "our home has grown by two feet". The aqua blue, sage and olive green design includes modern branch accents that are symbolic of growth.

The reverse side of the card showcases Thomas and his birth stats

Teresa & Mike : Wedding Day Accents

The fun colorful movie theme that began with their save the dates and invitations continued throughout all of the details of Teresa and Mike's big day. For their wedding day paper items, the logo that they provided continued to be a feature, and fuchsia was also brought into the color scheme as an accent.

Lisa & Matthew : Wedding Day Accents

Congrats to Lisa and Matthew...their wedding was today, and they're probably dancing the night away right now :) I designed a few wedding day items for them that coordinated with their black and white metallic scroll invitations.
Tri-fold wedding ceremony programs
Menu panels for the adults...
and menu panels for the kids! I came across the dancing chickens graphic and had to use it :) These menus were printed on a green linen cardstock.
Tented table cards. Instead of table numbers, Lisa and Matt provided words with special significance.
Escort cards ~ some of which included a symbol indicating vegetarian or kids meal
And just for fun...here's my baby Bosco helping me set up for the shoot :)

Nicole & Matt : Wedding Invitations

Nicole and her mother Michele are artists, and I worked with them both to create these gorgeous chartreuse green and chocolate brown vineyard wedding invitations. The grape leave illustrations were perfect to incorporate as their wedding reception will be held at Veritas Vineyard in Afton, Virginia. They also provide a special personal touch because they were all hand-drawn by Nicole's mother. She drew them, scanned them in and sent them to me through email so that I could incorporate.
A layered monogram band wrap is removed to open the custom chocolate brown pocketfold that encloses the invitation and inserts.
The ink throughout this set is raised, which provides some dimension and texture.
