Happiest of birthdays to my sweet sister @nkjells. May year 27 be the best yet! Love you + miss you.
If you’re in Lou, give her a squeeze for me!

Less than a month til my little sis says “I do”! So excited for her and her fiancé! This is the invitation suite I designed for them—they asked for elegant, black & white, with touches of hand-lettering.

Today is a GOOD day. So incredibly happy for my friend @lizzylynnott who has been battling cancer for the past 9 months— she found out today that she’s cancer FREE!! So many prayers answered. Celebrating with you in spirit Liz. Love you friend and so thankful for you. ❤️🙌🏻 P.S. love this pic of us from our wedding. Pretty sure her twin @party_mom was making me laugh here :)

A white calla lilly from our garden to remember my sweet father-in-law who passed away on April 23. He loved flowers and gardening, and was a master at growing things back to life. I’m thankful that he passed along some of those skills to my husband, @benjababy. We love you and miss you Scott. 😘

Two years married to this amazing guy. In the good times and the really hard times, I’m glad to have you by my side.

Last week marked 1 year of living in LA. Here’s to more sunshine and all the palms! 🌞🌴

Concept for a save-the-date postcard I recently designed for my little sister’s wedding. We decided to go with a different direction, so this will live here for now. ✌🏽

Stephanie & Madison's Wedding Invitations

May 22, 2015 in wedding invitations

I recently had the pleasure of designing these wedding invitations for a friend. Inspired by her color palette of peach, and shades of green, I watercolored a set of flowers & greenery for a feminine set of invites and RSVPs. It was such a fun project to work on, and I also got to practice on my calligraphy skills. Congrats to Steph & Madison!
