Wedding | Doobie & Kayla’s Invitation

It’s Kayla and Dobbie’s wedding day! Doobie and Kayla live in San Luis Obispo but decided to take their friends and family to the North Shore of Oahu for a relaxing vacation and to tie the knot! I am excited to share with you their custom designed accordion-fold invitation inspired by marine scientific drawings–so cool! I am very thankful that Kayla chose me to design her invitations because  she had some great and creative ideas for her marine inspired but not “kitschy Hawaiian beach” invitation, they were so much fun to create for her! I think Kayla’s seafoam, gold, coral and cream color scheme works perfectly to show guests that this event will be a classy vintage occasion.  I love the accordion invitation format because it incorporates the engagement pictures plus have enough room for all the wedding details, and a tear-off RSVP postcard. Kayla wanted to include a detailed map of the North Shore of Oahu,  accommodations and a fun list of their favorite places to eat on Oahu.

I love their engagement shoot pictures by Mike Larson Photography,  they go so well with the invitation which I designed first then added their pictures once they had their photo shoot. I can’t wait to see the ones from the wedding! Congratulations Kayla and Doobie!

Save the Date | Matthew & Jacqueline

I am excited to share with you an illustrated Save the Date design I did for Jaqueline and Matthew. Jacqueline wanted something really similar to this cute Vermont Save the Date by Scout’s Honor Co. with the hand drawn names, sunset and plane.  Since Jacqueline and Matthew are getting married at Avila Beach Resort,  she wanted me to incorporate the Avila Pier and ocean backdrop.  I also designed a custom address stamp which matches their Save the Dates and can be used for years to come!

I can’t wait to see how their wedding unfolds with the collaboration of Mark Padgett Wedding Design and Mike Larson Photography.

Fun Finds | Waistcoat Button Bracelet

This last Christmas my Mom gave me this beautiful bracelete made out of antique Waistcoat Jewel Buttons from 1870. I love how each one is perfectly unique, some are even hand painted.

Parties & Holiday | Our 2011 Christmas Card- Joyeux Noel

Merry Christmas! Here is our 2011 Christmas Card, designed with a tag on the back to write personalized holiday greetings! Thanks to Chloe for taking our picture! Jake and I were laying on my favorite quilt and Chloe had to shoot us from above, she was about 6 months pregnant so it was an obstacle shooting over the belly :)

    Matthew Watson — I love this Christmas card! The tag on the back to write a little greeting was a very clever idea. I love the type embellishments on “Noel” & how they were also used around the border of the photo. Nice work! I can’t wait to see what you guys come up with for your 2012 card.

Wedding | Justin & Lauren’s Day-of-Stationery

A few weeks ago Jake and I photographed Justin and Lauren’s Wedding! The photos are still yet to come but here is a peak at their Day of Stationery. Y0u might remember their Wedding Invitation from a past post, and here it is again with the full Wedding Suite.  I designed the menu, hand lettered the table numbers and escort cards,  and designed a custom stamp for the muslim goodie bags.
