Finally...The Hruska/Plummer Wedding

I was hoping to get these posted a while ago but I finally got my product photography box set up to take pictures. Here are the invites and programs from the Hruska/Plummer Wedding!! I had such a great time working with the Bride, Groom and their families. Kati and Kathy came to me with a vision of what they wanted and it was so awesome to make it come to life!! I am extremely please with the finished products!!

Designing for me.....

Just wanted to share our birth announcements and baptism invitations that I designed for our newest edition to our family Alivia Miyoko Ahern. I always have fun doing birth announcements but these were fun and stressful all at the same time. I am my own worse critic as well as my own worse client. It was all worth it though because I love the way they turned out!! The photo that we used was taken by Kelly Highby Photography. Kelly does a fantastic job and we are thrilled with our newborn pictures.

Catching up before I take time off........

So, it has been two months since my last post but I have been really busy with design work not to mention preparing for our little baby girl to arrive. I thought it would be good if I updated before I took some time off to spend with Alivia after she arrives. I will have one more post hopefully in the near future to showcase the wedding that I worked on in May and June.
Until then.....
This was for a friend's couple shower that is getting married Labor Day weekend.
My girlfriends Brother-in-Law is getting married this August and they were hosting a couples shower for the Bride and Groom.

As another part of that wedding preparation I designed rehearsal dinner invitations to work with their wedding invites for the Mother of the Groom.
This announcement was for a friend of my Sister-in-Law's. She is starting a new exciting chapter of her life and wanted to send an announcement with her new information.

Wendy is at it again. She is walking in the Breast Cancer 3-Day in Denver with a few friends. They are using Footloose and Cancer Free as their team name. Here is their logo.

This is what I have been working on finishing up so other than posting images of the Hruska/Plummer Wedding and maybe a couple small personal projects, I will be taking some time off from designing to get to know our little girl. She should be here any day......and yes when she is here I will post pictures to introduce Miss Alivia Miyoko Ahern!!

Baby Arin

This is a little late than never. This baby announcement is for my sister-in-law's niece. Arin Elizabeth Cuvala. She is so beautiful and I can't believe how much she looks like my niece when she was a baby.

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!!

Birthday Time.........

It's been a while since I have blogged about my current designs. I have been busy with birthday invites, baby announcements, baby shower invites, and wedding invites. SO for now, here are the birthday invites that I finished.

For Gavin's 5th birthday he is having a Super Squad Party!!

Suprise Linda!!

Ethan is ONE!!

My nephew Ethan turned 1 today!! I can't believe that it has been an entire year. I can remember the day he was born as if it were yesterday. It was such an awesome experience to be able to be a part of his birth. Anyway - I designed the invitations for his birthday party that we had on Valentine's Day.

It was such a fun time!! My friend Wendy has a cake business called Sweetie P's so we asked her to make a cake to go with the John Deere theme. It was awesome. Thanks Wendy!!

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!!
