Black and White Inspiration Board

Black and white is a classic wedding color combination that can either go super formal and classy or modern and whimsical. My Veda Invitation was inspired by both ideas. The bold graphics and fun typography would suit a variety of styles and couples.

Moving Announcement Voting Time

I really hate crowdsourcing, but I do really like Minted. It's a good outlet to try out new ideas and to learn new things. I recently submitted two designs to the moving announcement challenge. I'd appreciate a vote if you have a minute. Thanks in advance!

Personal Logo Project

It has been a little bit since I worked on a fun logo and I got the hankering to get creative. I created a fictional urban boutique and designed a logo and business card to fit the envisioned brand. I'm in love with the plaid pattern and the tangerine and magenta color palette.

Lancaster County Meats and Deli Logo Reveal

When Todd, a friend from church, approached me about designing a logo for his new market stand, I was a little bit nervous. Working for friends can either be really great or really stressful. Luckily, I've only ever had good experiences working with and for friends, but I always go into projects a little wary. Todd's market stand, Lancaster County Meats and Deli, sells many different types of meats, cheeses and other things. The challenge was to create a modern logo with nods to the country and to what they sell. I was inspired by a weathervane and decided to stack animal silhouettes as part of that.

The final logo is really great and the client is super happy. Along with the logo, I created a business card and recipe card design.

We Are Finally Live

After many long months and a few different versions, my website is finally launching today. I couldn't be more excited, but I'm also terrified. Now I can't use "my website isn't up yet" as an excuse to not be promoting my business.

I feel like I'm really putting myself out there now, and it's scary but very exciting. I'm taking a leap, but I know that I have a great God and supportive husband and family to catch me no matter what happens in my business.

So take a look at my website and tell me know what you think! If anything is showing up weird in your browser let me know.

Brady Christmas Card

Even though our Christmas cards got out after December 25th, I'm still pretty excited about them. This was my first year doing something out-of-the-box and I love how they look like little packages tied up with string. 

Gift Certificates

I'll be adding this gift certificate to my Etsy shop later today. Gifting personal stationery, calling cards, birth announcements or New Years cards is an extra special present.

It has been great to see that an appreciation for stationery and paper products hasn't gone away. In recent years, handwritten cards have become more popular for 20-30 somethings - especially letterpress products. Because so much of our communication is now digital, it is extra special to receive an envelope from a friend in the mail!
