ok, maybe they're not men yet, but they will be someday, and i wanted to use a catchy title! as usual, i digress. here's a collection of the latest baby announcements. you may see a theme here - apparently chevron is kinda popular. (or i just really enjoy it as a design element!)
grey and yellow are also trendy right now, so we fulfilled mama's wish for that. and, truly the sky's the limit with how many images you can use on your announcement.
i can't even get over how adorable these pictures are! they truly make the announcement, and i knew they needed to be showcased. printed on reeeeaalllyy thick, yummy paper, mama obliged my need to round the corners. she wasn't in the mood to address all the envelopes, so those got some flair, too.
no chevron here, but definitely boyish stripes and colors. a fun statement on the front gives the card personality. and, a scripture always adds something to the finished product.
so, in my design history, i think i've designed maybe 4 or 5 girl announcements. it's all boys out there, i tell ya! who's gonna date all these boys?!
maybe... this little lady? chevron? check. polka dots? check. little birdies? check. and an adorable saying to introduce miss thing. i'm guessing this might get 'stolen' in the future!
preggers? have a newborn? ready to announce that little bundle to the world? let's have a chat!
well, hello there. i'll wait while you recover from the shock that i'm actually posting some designs here. on this design blog.
more friends are welcoming babies around here, and it's a must to celebrate mama with tons of loot before baby's arrival. this one's special because it's the first girl for me to snuggle since sweet p came along! can you believe?
baby's nursery is grey and lavender, with fun patterns like chevron, stripes, and polka dots, so we carried that over into the invites.
chevron on the front, polka dots on the back. and, if you look closely, the b (for baby bunting!) is die cut and pops off the invite for a dimensional effect.
continuing my love affair with wraparound labels, i've brought many a client over to the dark side, and this design was no different.
mama wanted thank you notes in chevron and polka dots to match.
for the shower, we created place cards for all the attendees in the same patterns.
the hostesses of the shower did an awesome job - check out the table - every shade of purple flower! so pretty!
how's that for a re-entry into design blogdom? oh, there'll be more where this came from. lookin' forward to showing you all the goods.
hosting a baby shower? having a baby? need something cute? i'm your gal - let's have a little chat!
*special thanks to baby's mama, who let me borrow her images of the shower.

as the last of the year's holiday cards fly out of the workshop, it always seems like i notice a theme, and this year is no different. last year everyone wanted snowflakes, year before that - bright, modern colors.
well, this year, the theme was...patterns.
i've had requests for plaid
argyle
chevron
and whimsy (read polka dots mixed with stripes!)
and, that's what makes custom so very fun. when someone has an idea, and you can make it come to life. stay tuned for more creative cards i was requested to whip up this year. man, you guys make my job fun!
if you're still wanting to order cards, you're not too late (yet). we can do a new year's card, or you can order a digital print over on the etsy workshop that you can print wherever you wanna.
k - gotta run! there are only 10 days til the fat man comes!
