a onesie, and a ...

pretty much all my designs so far this year have been for baby showers. and, most of those orders included much more than just invitations (hello, custom!). this order was no exception.

you may remember the invites:

while brainstorming designs, we both fell in love with a onesie idea. after we found the perfect paper to create the onesies, we started with stripes in the nursery color (sage green) for a classic design. then i topped it with just one(sie), giving the illusion it was drying on the line. 

these turned out sweet-as-can-be, and can you imagine what fun opening the mail was that day?!

to carry on the theme, we created menu table cards.

and strung up a welcome banner of the sweetest onesies tied together, which can be used in baby's nursery later.

doesn't it look like a fun celebration?! and, that view?! wow - talk about a great backdrop!

any baby welcoming goin' on in your neck of the woods? let's chat!

Muy Caliente

i'm back to show you all the wedding goods from this save the date. and, it's spicy. we kept the latin flavor of the save the dates, but used the wedding colors instead. red, black and turquoise were carried throughout all the pieces.

we chose to flood all the pieces of the invitation suite with a different color. the invitation got black on the back. and, the picture does not do it justice. we decided on delicious linen paper, and the black looked amazing on it.

the rsvp was turquoise. and, check out just how much info you can fit on that little card. rsvp, meal choice, favorite song, advice for the couple. we printed the return envelope with muted wedding colors.

then, the guest information card was red. i know i've said it before, but you can use these for whatever you like. the bride chose to use her card to feature local wine bars and tap houses, because there was a 3 hour gap between the wedding and reception.

this image may do nothing for you, but i love seeing everything all packed and ready to ship.

for the ceremony program, we again featured more muted wedding colors, but with the same flourish.

the final pieces were reception table numbers and placecards. the bride couldn't decide which color she liked best, so we did table numbers in each of the four colors, and then matched the placecards to the table number. how fun is that?!

to denote the food choice of each guest, we used cute little icons - a chicken, a cow, and a carrot for vegetarian. you can see a better close up here.

we also listed the food on the back of the card, just to make sure the caterers got it right! highlighted on the turquoise card below.

i had so much fun working on this wedding suite - the colors were fantastic, and it really warms my heart to be a part of helping the bride have the wedding of her dreams.

tina and antonio were married this past saturday. i've seen a few pictures, and it looked like a blast. i wish them all the happiness and love in the world! congratulations!
