Some Projects

Sometimes when I’m at home, I come upstairs to my computer and do that same thing at home that I do at work, design stuff.  Lately, I have done some fun projects that I thought turned out pretty cute. So now you get to see them.  See below for explanations of each of the pieces.

(Because some of the events that I designed invitations for, haven’t happened yet–and I don’t feel that it’s my place to post the dates and times on my blog for just anyone to go and crash the events–I have blurred out the dates.  It wasn’t part of the design, but it’s probably safer since I’m not entirely sure who reads my blog.)

First: My friend at work is getting married soon and she asked me to design her wedding invites.  She was great to work with, she knew exactly what she wanted them to look like.  Her style was really simple and elegant.  Because it was a wedding invite, there were a couple of pieces, the invite, the temple invite, the luncheon RSVP card and a map.

Second: Also for my friend who is getting married is a bridal shower invite. The girls at work are throwing it for her and asked me to help with the invitations. They wanted to do a lingerie party, so that was the theme of the invite. I did two different colors, pink (because it’s so Victoria Secret) and purple because she loves purple. We printed the purple ones, but I loved the vibrancy of the pink, so that’s what you get to see.

Third: Back in April, over spring break we had a Young Woman retreat. I made invites for our event that included the two day agenda and what the girls needed to bring.  I designed it in one long sheet, but so that it could fold into three panels.  I’ve shown the full view and the individual panels.

Enjoy!

(And, this is my 100th post!  Happy 100th post to me.  I’m not sure if this is the most exciting post for my 100th post, but it works, right? For how long I’ve had this blog, 100 posts isn’t really that many, but an exciting milestone, never the less.)
