THE BEST GIFTS ARE PERSONALIZED... AKA: ORIGINALS

If you're a fan of Pinterest, you've probably already seen these inspirational quotes in a variety of fonts and sizes attached to an infinite number of websites and blogs. Only these are different... they're part of a personalized gift that was so much fun to design and create. It was my gift to my sister after the completion of a one year nutritional challenge. Throughout the year we would post Pins to encourage one another through highs and lows... from those I chose 16 of our favorites and created a deck of inspiration quotes with a small black stand.

Each day we choose the inspirational quote we need the most to keep us on track. AND the best part is it's a sweet reminder of our one year adventure together.

Have you ever thought of a personalized gift you'd like to give that special someone? Spouse? Parent? Sibling? Child? I would absolutely love to make your creative thought a reality. Contact me today for a complimentary consultation.

"T" IS FOR TYPOGRAPHY

I fell in love with fonts my first day of Typography years ago and am still fascinated. I thoroughly enjoy researching new fonts when faced with a new design and/or invitation project. Bringing fonts together may seem easy, but there is an art in doing so... that's what we call Typography: the art or process of setting and arranging types and printing from them.

"T" IS FOR TYPOGRAPHY

Fonts say so much when they stand alone, but when combined with another they can create an amazing visual in just two words. Take for instance the Diamonds and Denim invitation. Do you see it? Need I say more? Because fonts are so graphic, I find it important to compliment other elements of the project design as well. Across the bottom I designed for three different feelings: elegance, vintage and contemporary.
