I was so excited to recently have my calligraphy menus included in the fabulousness that was Coco + Kelley’s 5th Anniversary party! The calligraphy menus were hand lettered in fresh white and kelly green lettering, on kraft paper. Every detail of the party was just so charming, check out more of the beautiful photos over at Coco + Kelley. Congratulations on 5 years Cassie!

I recently created a wedding menu that was published in the Seattle Bride MagazineBest Of issue. I wanted to share the handmade menus with you because these little letterpress library cards turned menus are just so darn sweet!
I stamped these sweet little letterpress library cards with a custom made rubber stamp menu, I hand lettered them with the bride and grooms names then finished them off with a bit of twine. I think they are such a great, unique way to let your wedding guests (or the guests at your next great party!) know what’s on the menu! If you’re interested in these or another custom project, please contact me for a quote!
And a huge hip hip hooray to Seattle Bride Magazine for featuring me in their latest issue!

Every once in awhile (okay almost everyday), I have a new design idea that I want to get out of my head and onto my Illustrator screen. For those moments there is a lovely outlet for me called Minted. Now typically I think crowd-sourcing for design is kind of a rip off for designers, but I have to say that I think the process of designing things out of my typical design aesthetic has been really beneficial for me. I think stretching my design muscle outside of my regular projects when I have a few free moments has made me a more creative designer and has even helped clarify my design point of view. A month or so ago my first design went up for sale (so if you’re looking for graduation announcements, there you go!)… Last week I posted some new designs for the Christmas card challenge. I’d love to know what you think and if you have a second of it, I would really appreciate your votes for my submissions!
