Amy & Kyle

Whew it's been a rough morning.  These 3am feedings are draining me, especially when my little one doesn't go down until 10:30.  I pray he starts sleeping through the night very soon.  Thank god my husband and I carpool to work so I can sleep on the way in for now. :)  I now understand that my time is no longer mine, it belongs to Logan.  All I can say is thank god for DVR because all my shows, (yes I watch way too much TV or should I say I did watch way too much TV), are starting this week and next so I will be able to record everything and catch up later.  Anyway today I would like to share the invitation and rsvp card I did for one of my best friends, Amy.  We've been friends since highschool and Amy was a bridesmaid in my wedding last year so I was super excited when her and Kyle got engaged and she asked me to make her invitations.  They are getting married in October and I cannot wait for their wedding!  Their invites were done months ago but I didn't want to post the design before she had a chance to send them out and then I went on maternity leave so that's why I'm just now sharing them.  I just love the colors she chose...    

I'm working on her programs now, so check back for those in a few weeks.  Have a great day!

I'm Back!

Hello everyone, if anyone is still out there...:)  Sorry I have been MIA.  I thought I might be able to get a few posts in while I was home with Baby K whom we now call Logan, but no such luck.  He took up all of my time but I enjoyed every minute of it and was very sad to return to work.  It was so hard to leave him but Mom's do it everyday so I just keep telling myself it will get better in time.  Needless to say I am super excited for 5:00 everyday when I walk in the door and see his face.  I just can't wait to squeeze him!  But back to my reason for blogging, invites, programs and logos....here we come.  I've been up to a few things over the past few months and have a few more things lined up for October so I hope to be posting often.  Now on to it.  Probably almost a year ago I started talking about a logo I was redesigning for a local hair salon.  It took a while with the owner being busy with making additions to her salon and several other projects she had going on but I'm excited to say the logo is complete and I'm so happy with the way her business cards turned out.  Here are a few different variations of the logo they will be using.

And here are the business cards.



Well that's all for today.  I hope everyone has a great weekend and I'll be back next week for sure with new things to show you.  Have a good one!

Alternative Solutions Chiropractic & Wellness Coaching

Hi Everyone, today I have a new logo and business card to show you for my sister's chiropractic office.  
I mentioned her previously here and here.  She's been working in Fairview Heights for the last 5 years alongside another Chiropractor and decided she wanted to be closer to her hometown and on her own. So come this July her office will officially be open! I'm very excited for her! And she was so kind to let me design her logo and business cards.  So here they are.

Jamie & George Program

Yeah for Thursday and this short week!  I love holidays on Mondays.  I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day Weekend.  Mine was pretty good.  Relaxing, did a little work and squeezed some pool time in.  I have another program to show you.  You may recognize it though, it's just like Kathy & Matt's except it has more pages so I used ribbon to tie them together.  The colors are different as well to match Jamie & George's colors.  This was a quick put together because she contacted me a few weeks ago and her wedding is this saturday.  It worked out well that she really liked Kathy & Matt's program and wanted to use the same design.  So Saturday I spent most of the day cutting ribbon, cutting slits in the programs and tieing ribbon.  I think they turned out really cute.  So here they are.

I really need to get better at taking pictures of this stuff...sorry for the dark backgrounds.  Well I hope everyone has a great weekend!  For anyone else counting down with me, 3 weeks from Sunday until Baby K is here!  Hopefully anyway.  I pray I do not go over, mainly because I am so excited to meet the little one. :)

Andrea & Dave's Invite

Wow are you guys in for a treat this week.  Not only did I manage to post two days in a row but today will have two posts!  I just realized I never posted the invitation and rsvp I did for my good friends Andrea & Dave.  And I love them so I can't believe I didn't post them sooner.  Andrea and I met in college and have been good friends since then.  We live about 5 hours a part so we definitely don't get to hang out as often as we liked to.  I was so excited when she asked me to make her invitations.  Her wedding is just a short 2 weeks after my due date so whether or not I will be able to make it is still up in the air but I'm crossing my fingers Baby K will cooperate and come a little early so we can make the road trip.  But enough about that here is the invite and rsvp.  Oh and I forgot to mention they did something totally different with their rsvp.  They wanted it to be a mad lib, how fun!  

Kathy & Matt's Program

I did it!  Two days in a row of posting.  I actually remembered to take pictures of Kathy & Matt's program last night. :)  Remembering things has been hard lately.  I know some don't believe it but when you're expecting you tend to forget things and my memory has been terrible.  I barely remember what I did yesterday most days.  But anyway I have the pictures so why wait any longer.  Here is the program!

 Hope everyone has a great weekend! 

More to Come

So I know it's been over a month since my last post and I sincerely apologize.  I have been busy working on two logos, a save the date, an invitation and most recently another program.  I will definitely be posting the finished products when I can.  Some of these will have to wait until later though because I don't like to post the designs until the customer has had time to send out their invites or use their programs.  I do have Kathy & Matt's program but I need to take pictures yet, so maybe tomorrow I will get that one up.  For now, here is a save the date I just recently finished for a couple I went to high school with.  Meredith found this save the date online but it was ridiculously over priced so she came to me asking if I could recreate it.  I was able to download the exact font that was used and I think they turned out great.  They are simple, yet elegant.  I love them so I hope you do too!  These were actually printed on shimmery champagne paper with matching envelopes.
