Hi all. First off, I hope you all have a happy and safe 4th of July! I wanted to announce that the Minted Holiday Party Challenge is now open for voting. Since I’ve been busy these past few weeks I was only able to submit two designs, both of which I really love. A little bit of glitz and glam on these, perfect for the festive holiday. Please feel free to check them out and vote if you’re up for it.

And now for some good news I am excited to share. The winners have been announced for the Eye of the Beholder Challenge, and my photograph ‘Haunted Wood’ was an editor pick! I am so excited for my first win on Minted and couldn’t be happier. Soon it will be for sale on their website, how cool is that? I am so stoked!

Last November I designed a parent album for Ginny and Mark to give as a gift to their family. I was excited to take a peak into their special day and absolutely loved the location and decor choices. The venue was the Carondelet House in Los Angeles, which is truly a beautiful space. It was built in 1928 and holds an immense amount of rustic charm. And I must say, Ginny did a fantastic job at designing and planning the event. It was so romantic and elegant. And their cake was gorgeous! I wanted to share a few spreads of the album, featuring the overall decor. Enjoy!

I recently added a new design to my Celebrations items, a Whimsical Harvest engagement party/dinner invite. It was one of the proofs I came up with while working on a custom design for a client and I loved it so much I decided to offer it in the shop.

Whimsical Harvest

With touches of gold and blue, this nature inspired invite is perfect for the fall and winter seasons but can work for an event held in the warmer months as well. If you love greenery and a little whimsy, this design fits the bill. Here are a few inspiring images to help you visualize a Whimsical Harvest event.
