Guess What?

I did something fun this week and...started an Etsy shop! Check it out and let me know what you think! It's called Design Gem :)

Goodnight Moon Themed First Birthday Party

This is a repost from September 2010 but I just had the best time designing party accessories for this party and wanted to re-share :) 

 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A cohesive and perfectly detailed party is one of my favorite things. I had the pleasure of designing some party paper goods for a one-year old's birthday party. The party was inspired from the childrens book Goodnight Moon. A lot of work went into the dessert/ candy table and I love how it turned out.

A simple backdrop made of ribbon easily adds a lot of color without taking away from the excitement of the table.

Guests grabbed custom favor boxes and filled them with goodies as they mingled with friends and family

Little bunnies just like in goodnight moon and favor bags with the wording: Goodnight Friends. Goodnight Moon. Goodnight treats to munch on soon.

Perfect cupcakes from AmyCakes with custom designed cupcake flags and cupcake wrappers!

Personalized water bottles.

Color coordinating sodas from Pops in Arcadia.

I made french fry holders for the party since I knew fries would be served. I think this was my favorite custom product. Guests could easily carry around their fries as they chatted with friends. Also, custom labels adorned each cup with the wording: Birch is one. Let's have some fun. Let's eat and play and dream away.

Black+Ecru Classic Wedding Invitation

 

I was searching through some invite files and found this pretty invitation that I designed from last year. I just love the simplicity of the ercu+black and the elegance of the bold, statement-like typography. Oh, how I love a beautiful wedding invitation!
