postcard design.

My pastor and his wife have been ministering to the community at GRACE for 20 years!!! On June 19th we celebrated them and I had the honor of designing the postcard invitation and coordinating pieces for the event. Pastor Lou is an amazing communicator and you can listen to his sermons at http://www.gracelbmedia.org

apu...U KNOW.

I have a friend who coaches basketball for the Azusa Pacific University Women's Basketball team...she asked me if I would design a t-shirt for the girls and I said YES! I have become quite the fan of the team - not only because they are AWESOME and play great ball, but because they each have amazing hearts and are just cool people!

So the design on the right got put onto maroon shirts and they sported those shirts all the way to the National Championship game...oh yes, I like to think that a team in a well designed pregame shirt is destined for success.

[sometimes making things is so fun.]

I have had the privilege of discipling/mentoring a group of amazing girls since 2003...I try to make them things occasionally. Mainly because...well, I simply like to make things.

My grandmother and I found some old wood at a fleamarket type shop in VA--we spent SEVERAL days trying to find the right wood and I actually wish I had found even older wood then what we came across.  We ended up getting some old shutters that came from a barn and I had my grandfather help me chop it up into rectangles and sand the edges. I printed out some pictures of us, sewed them onto fabric, frayed the edges and then attached them to the wood with these cool nails my grandmother had. And wa la...a simple little gift.

I LOVE designing and making custom cards, invitations, announcements, etc!!! They take A LOT of work  to put together but an invitation sets the whole tone for your event and its fun to be a part of creating something that gets people ready for a GOOD TIME!!!

Kim DeAllen came to me and asked me to create a invitation for her daughter GiGi's one year old birthday party which was also going to be a fundraiser for breast cancer and her baby dedication. She also wanted to somehow highlight her daughter's formal name of Margaux Gisele DeAllen as well as the name everyone calls her "Gigi"....SO this was quite the challenge to combine all of these pieces in one formal invite but we both LOVED how it came out.

The invitation was fun but the party was AMAZING!!! Kim is such a great party planner and they were able to raise so much money for breast cancer while celebrating a beautiful little girl.
