I designed these thank you notes for Areej + Uzair. After their wedding, they sent these notes to guests.

This is the sweetest couple, so I had a lot of fun creating this pretty card for them. I tied in some of the colors from their wedding, and I love how bright and cheerful these are.

I’m wishing Areej + Uzair many, many happy years together!

just for fun: bookmark

Friday, May 14th, 2010

A little background information: my boyfriend is currently attending Harvard Business School. As a significant other (aka partner), I am also involved in some of the school’s activities and clubs, including a monthly book club. I made personalized bookmarks with silly titles (like Chief Chip Operator and Candy Manager) for my friends in the club.

This is the one I made for myself. I’m always in charge of sending out the evite to the group, letting everybody know when and where the next meeting will take place. This coming Tuesday it will be at my apartment. Yay!

I made these bridal shower invitations for my friend, Areej. The design has a tea party theme, and reflects her love of the color pink! Fun!

custom design: business card for anna lappé

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

A few weeks ago Anna Lappé’s office contacted me about designing some business cards for her.

They wanted to feature her new book, Diet for a Hot Planet, on the back of the card, and I tried to keep her brand consistent by making the text the same green that’s used on her website.

heart made of origami cranes

Monday, March 8th, 2010

Recently, a woman saw my paper crane mobiles in my Etsy shop, and thought I might be able to help her with an idea. After learning a little more about what she had in mind, I decided to take the project.

::The Project::
This piece was commissioned as a wedding gift. It consists of red paper cranes attached to a high quality sheet of white paper in the shape of a heart.

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

I’m working on a custom project that involves a lot of red paper cranes. I thought it would be fun to share this little sneak peek, since I’ve been spending so much time folding!

I was contacted about making a heart out of paper cranes, and I thought it would be an interesting challenge. My client will be giving this piece as a wedding gift, so that’s pretty exciting! I’ll share more pictures when it’s complete.

Have you been working on any projects?

custom design: birthday card for google forums

Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010

I recently designed this birthday card for Google Forums. There is a forum for each of Google’s products so that users can get their questions answered and share their experiences using the product. This year marks the 1 year anniversary (or birthday) of a few of the forums. Google will be sending these cards to the users who have been the most helpful within the forums to say thank you.

Google Forums are used in countries around the world; we wanted to embrace that, so Happy Birthday! is featured in 25 languages. The pyramid in the center of the card is the Google Forums logo, which was designed at some point last year by another designer. I’m quite pleased with the way the design turned out, and it was certainly an exciting project!

The Details
★ Folded card
★ White envelope
★ Size A2 (4 ¼” x 5 ½”)
★ Printed locally on 100% recycled paper

Thanks Google! :)

custom wedding invitation: julie + tim

Monday, February 8th, 2010

A few months ago Julie contacted me about a custom wedding invitation. She provided all of the inspiration by telling me about her plans and showing me pictures of the bridesmaid dresses and the birch bark wedding cake that she and Tim had selected.

The invitation was accented with a birch tree and snowflakes, and a fern adorned the RSVP. The two pieces complimented each other and the wedding theme nicely.

I finished the invitations by gluing them to a green backing paper that matched the envelopes. I sent them to the couple tied with white satin ribbons.

Congratulations Julie and Tim! (They were married this past Friday.)

custom design: appointment postcards for dr. forman

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

I designed this appointment postcards for Dr. Forman, a local dentist. He had a very clear idea about what he wanted, and I enjoyed collaborating with him and making his vision come to life.

I made the dental floss swoop into a “smile” and I changed the buttons on the phone so they’d look like dental tools (toothpick, toothbrush, toothpaste, & dental mirror). I really like the gentle reminder on the back that you “better start flossing now.” Ha!
