Programs - A glimpse


Here's a sneak preview of a nearly completed wedding package for Jennifer (You can see her matching table numbers HERE). Her wedding is in January, so I have completed her multi-page booklets, in the smaller size. They measure about 4.25" X 5.5" folded, with 8 pages of text. Jenn actually took an interactive role in formatting how she wanted everything inside, including the font choices, which made my job sooo much easier. We are using Bazzil's Black Orchid cardstock for the dark purple/eggplant base color, then I used a sage green text cardstock for the trim, with off white linen paper for the text. I created a new monogram for the cover of the programs.
This is the general format I use for programs for brides that want to have more than 2 pages of text. But this smaller sized program is not only easy on the wallet, it's wayyyy cute.

Ann and Kyle Pretty In Pinks Part 5

Now I want to give Melissa Mclure Photography a shoutout for such gorgeous pictures. I want to share the few photos that she posted (her site is Melissa Mclure Photography) for Ann and Kyle's Pretty In Pink wedding in San Diego, CA. Check out the table setting! Those favor tags look familiar... wink wink.

I love seeing the products I create in action. It's such a wonderful feeling taking part in a client's special day...

Jada B's personal Logo

Here is a personal logo I started to work on for Tanekeya's package, but unfortunately, we've scratched it and will be working on another. But, it turned out so cute, I thought I'd post it anyway. Jada is a makeup artist, which is why there is a blush brush in it.

Tristen B's Personal Monogram and Logo

This is just the first of a series of personal monograms/logos that I've created for Tanekeya Word, who by the way is an awesome artist. You can find her website at http://www.tanekeyaword.com/. Tanekya had sent me the peacock to use for the logo. I just had to tweak it a bit. The peacock image was created by a talented artist, Natalie, on her blog at http://www.definatalie.com/archives/31-Free-Vector-Shapes-Peacocks.html ...

Tori & Steve

I love that Tori knew exactly what she wanted in her monogram design. Once we knew which layout/design to use, it was just a matter of getting the right colors, and fonts for each element. Tori was such a doll for figuring out which fonts were her favorites, and finding the right color codes for her color pallette. Great job, Tori!

Personalized Notecard Sets

Here are my latest sets of personalized notecards that are intended to be Christmas gifts for 3 lucky ladies. I LOVE the letter Q on these cards. There need to be more names with Q so I can make more of these...

Ann and Kyle Pretty In Pinks Part 4

Anne sent me the link to her photographer's blog with their wedding photos: Kyle and Ann - The Prado at Balboa Park » Melissa McClure Blog. This past Saturday, Kyle and Ann got married at The Prado, a gorgeous venue in San Diego's Balboa Park. Luckily it didn't rain that day, since it was raining a few days before. Check out the photographer's blog and see Ann's slideshow -- if you wait a bit, you will see some of my work in the slide show (I did their programs, favor tags, placecards and table numbers!). But as an added treat, see how beautifully shot the day was by Melissa McClure Photography. Her work is probably one of my local favorites. I'm pretty new to the San Diego area, so I look forward to discovering the talent around here.
