Tis the season to be busy...

I am used to being busy with Holiday cards this time of year but I have also been extremely busy with other invites as well.  Here are the designs I have been doing for the last month.

Playing Catch Up!!

I am playing catchup with the designs I have done over the last three months plus. I have been busy being a mommy and loving it so I haven't had a lot of extra time to design or document the designs that I have done. Here they are........

Anniversary Invitation

Logos for Nebraska Furniture Mart's Wellness Program

Payton is 5!! Remember her 4th Birthday invites? Look Here!

Baby Boy on the way!!

Spring brings Showers!!

I have been busy busy with the Hruska Plummer wedding that I will be sharing when I get some photographs of the finished product but until then I have some fun shower invitations to share.

The first is for some good friends that are due just a few short days before we are. I am so excited that our little girls will be friends and that we will be able to have play dates!! So these are for Denise and Mike.This second set is for my sister-in-laws, sister-in-law. I was really excited about theses because she wanted her invites to be of a bride silhouette. I have done many baby belly silhouettes but not a bride. I am very excited about how these turned out.

This last one is in fact another one of my belly silhouettes. Jen wanted a girl version of a previous invite that I had done for my friend Sarah. I don't like to use the same invite more than once so I changed it up a little.

The last is a little funny to post about because........well it was an invitation for me. My sister and my mom's good friend threw a wonderful shower for me back in my home town of Sidney NE. I had to laugh when thinking about doing these but then I separated my two babies.....Alivia and my business. So here is my invite!!

Baby Girl on the way!!

Here is an invite that I created for a baby shower for a friend. She came to me with some photos of the bedding that the parents had picked from Pottery Barn Kids. They were planning on purchasing the bedding as group gift from the invited guests so we only thought it would be fitting to model the invite after the bedding.

So this is what I came up with. I am really excited about the final product!!

what's been keeping me busy........

Here are my latest designs.

This is a design that is part of my Belly Sillouette Collection. I have about 4 different designs using this sillouette. This one works for baby boys and girls.

This is for a shower that is taking place at a Sushi Restaurant in Downtown Omaha. They were designed to go with the shower's Asian theme.

Lucy is turning 2 at the end of October. She is having an Elmo themed party. These were really fun!!

Little Boys and Little Girls

Sarah and Jeff are having a baby boy and Dance Diva Payton is turning 4.
Here are their designs.

Michelle's Having a Baby

My friend Michelle is due in September with their first baby. A group of our friends are hosting a baby shower for her. Here are the invites.

The new man in my life

Ethan Jay Sieck..........my nephew. My sister Beth gave birth to Ethan in February. I didn't think I would fall in love with another man but he stole my heart.

This is the invite for the shower that I hosted along with Randy's sister Jessica.

I was so excited to do Ethan's birth announcements but I was even more excited when Beth got her proofs back from his first photo session. A good friend of the family Carly has a photography business in Lincoln which worked out perfectly for Beth. Carly was gracious enough to let me use one of the pictures for the announcement. She gets all the credit for capturing such a great photo. Her website is http://www.carleylaflerphotography.com/.

Beth didn't get a chance to get back to Sidney for a baby shower before Ethan was born. Something about sitting in the car for 5 hours pregnant didn't seem too appealing. Plus she thought that if she waited until after he was born she could show him off to our friends and family that we don't get to see all that often.

Sharing My Designs

I have been meaning to do this for a while now but it has been on the bottom of my never ending lists of things to do. I have been thinking about it for a while now but I am in the process of looking at a business plan to take Designed by Sabrina to a full time business rather than the part-time business it is today. This will more than likely be a few years from now but I am starting the wheels of motion. I have revamped my logo, I am in the process of revamping my website and I am starting to blog my most recent designs. Although these are not all of my designs or even all of my most recent designs, it is a start. So.....Enjoy!!



I love surprise parties and I love old photos. This is an invite that captured both. Ron and Mary celebrated their 50th birthdays and the 30th wedding anniversary. Wendy and Trevor Fitch and Kalin Hicks planned a surprise party for them.






This was a baby shower announcement for our friends Annie and Sam Neal. Their baby girl is due April 6th.


Every year my mom gives her fellow teachers little gifts for Christmas. For the last two years I have designed "from the desk of" note cards for her gifts. This is this years design.


Shannon's little brother Brian is getting married to a really awesome girl Sarah. Shannon and Josh are throwing a shower. They decided that they wanted it to be a sports theme so what would be more perfect for an invite than a ticket.


Lastly, here are a couple of my Christmas designs for this year.
