Ugly Sweater Party Invitations

4 Nov

Here is my newest invite.  I love this invitation!  Fun typography with a vintage feel with handdrawn ugly sweater graphics.  Click here to purchase or view more detials:  http://www.etsy.com/listing/85121307/ugly-sweater-christmas-party-invitation  Your personalized invitation & Printable file is $15.  If you’d rather have me print it and mail them to you, I offer printing for 50 cents per invite.

Haven’t heard of an “Ugly Sweater Party”?  Ugly Sweater Christmas Parties are the newest, funnest party idea!   Basically everyone wears the ugliest sweater they can find.   About the Sweaters:  You’ve seen them: light up Christmas Sweaters, Wolf sweatshirts, Bill Cosby-esque sweaters, etc… You’ll find most people will get into it and seek out their own ugly sweater or make their own … but you could always head to Goodwill & find some ugly sweaters for you & any guests that “forgot” theirs at home. It is super fun! The sweaters give everyone something to talk about! You could even give out a prize for the ugliest sweater/tackiest outfit!

Examples of Ugly Sweaters:

Looking for a unique way to thank your wedding guests for their gift and their presence on your big day? This fabulous 6-panel, accordian style thank you card is a great way to showcase your gorgeous wedding photos while thanking your guests. Usually wedding guests (besides immediate family & close friends) don’t get to see your wedding photos. You spend a pretty-penny on photography, so why not share them with those who shared your special day?! The open space in the middle is for a hand-written personal note (optional). Flowing around the open space are a few sentences of thanks.

DETAILS:
Accordian style… six 5×7 panels make up this great thank you card. Finished size is 5×7. Colors & exact design will be based on your wants & the pictures provided. Completely custom to YOU!

Cost is $2.50 for each thank you card. Includes: design, printing, trimming, & folding. Minimum order quantity: 50. If you need less than 50, please contact me for pricing.  Envelopes can also be provided for 20 cents each. Shipping will be actual cost, $5-$16 depending on quantity ordered.

The new Mrs. Moore hired me to make her this gorgeous card (her idea) based on the birth announcement I made a couple months ago (see a few posts ago).  I want to thank Janay for thinking outside the box with this one.  It turned out great!

Accordian Style Birth Announcement

7 Sep

I just finished this 6 panel accordian style birth announcement & wanted to share it with everyone!  Beckett’s Mom, Evie, chose the chocolate brown, blue & cream colorway & I am kind of in love with it.  We also did a matching thank you note.  Finished size is 5×7 /fits A7 envelopes.   I just love a great mix of typography as well…  also loving the diagonal stripes & plaid.

This layout would also work well for wedding invitations… in fact I did a custom 8 panel accordian style wedding invite a couple months ago for an awesome Australian wedding… pics of the invite coming soon… we made the last panel a perforated RSVP card (also 5×7).

Contact me anytime for custom announcements or any other design needs you may have!

The kids are adorable & pictures are awesome so that made it really fun to work on.   I put a listing on Etsy for those of you interested in having one made for your little one.

Thank you to mom Evie for letting me post these pics.  It was great working with you!  Your kids are so cute!

Kitchen Bridal Showers are super popular right NOW

23 Aug

Throw your bride a kitchen shower!  Everyone gives the bride kitchen items to prepare for the happy couple’s new life together!   This 5×7 invite is a beautiful color scheme, very Martha Stewart. Colors can be altered if you’d prefer another color.

Two matching 4×6 recipe cards are included… Include them with the invitation & guests will share their recipes with the bride.  It is a great time for family members to pass on family recipes.  Then have a recipe box at the shower to put them in & give the box-full-of-recipes to the bride as a gift!

$20 for the custom invitation & two recipe card images.  Print as many as you need!
