My brother is getting married!!!

Yay! my brother is getting married and he is gettin hitched to the most awesome, sweetest, most wonderful girl ever!

This is in insert to go in the announcement

 I had the pleasure of designing his wedding announcements... ahh so many choices.. so many options.. esp when Heather at Paisley Studios did such an incredible job with their photos!

These were some of the options that came up with... but the ones they actual choose ... you will just have to wait and see! (they are not on here)

Ahh LOVE YOU GUYS!

You scream! I scream! ICECREAM!

My new project - I just created these logos for my bosses brother. He just started a company called Gourmet Sorbet. 

 A guy had already drawn the people - I just went into illustrator and used the pen tool to recreate them, figured out my layers and make them more user friendly! 

WHO WANTS SOME ICE CREAM? :)

CARNIVAL FUN!

(Names, dates and numbers have been changed)

My Good friend and Roomie is getting married soon - We decided to take advantage of the warm weather and have a CARNIVAL BRIDAL SHOWER for her complete with bean bag toss, face painting, and a doughnut eating contest.

This is the Invite that I made in Adobe Illustrator - I downloaded some of the fonts for free off the internet - looked and different ideas online and this is the result!  I think it turned out pretty TERRIFIC! :) 

Easter Butts

So Yesterday as I was meandering through blog land I found this way cute Easter Card - Since I don't have any fabric scraps and paper laying around - I decided to make it in Adobe Illustrator  

If you click on this image - you can print your own cards

The saying just makes me giggle - 

If you click on the image below - you can print your own :)

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!

Pretty Bows

 I Really REALLY LOVE BOWS! 

wanna know how to make em... 

You will need fabric, glue and your imagination!

First you start out with a piece of fabric 6 inches long and 4 inches wide. 

I found this to be the perfect size for me - but go a head and experiment with different sizes to find the right one for you :) FYI (have the back side of the material facing you)

Next you want to fold the edges to the middle. Do one side and glue ( I used a glue gun) Than go a head and do the other. 

After you glue both sided to the center - work Left to right and do the same thing again.

You should end up with a rectangle that is 4 inches long an 2 inches wide :) like this!

This is the back of your bow.

Turn your bow around and pinch it in the center - add a few drops of glue to help keep its shape

Cut a strip of fabric about a 1/2 inch to an 1 inch wide and 3-4 inched long (this will be the middle of your bow) remember to have the back of the fabric facing you and repeat step one. 

Wrap the piece of fabric around your bow and glue - you should end up with a bow about 3 inche long and they will look something like this :)

Last step - Glue and hair clip to the back of your bow and you are SET! :)

LOOK how PRETTY! Simply the fastest bow I have ever made.

Sister Birds

If me and my sisters were birds - this is how we would look. :) haha every time I look at it I laugh. ooh gotta luv the artistic powers of my imagination and Adobe Illustrator! Can't wait to make it into a t-shirt!!!

Flower Bands

My sister and I spend 2 hrs making these gems of headbands. They were the simplest thing ever to make!

WE had a blast using different fabrics and feathers that we had from past craft projects!

ooh what girl doesn't like some SPARKLE!

Some of them we just glued clips to the back - more versatile!

OOOh and here is me modeling the finish project - who knows maybe the sis and I will have our own ETSY store one day! :)

My type of fun

 Ahh the wonderful fun things you can do in Adobe Illustrator! I just crack myself up sometimes! :)

Creative Fun

 My dear lil sister had me make this for her... as you can tell she gets the word beasty and bestie confused! She made a t-shirt with this cool picture on it for her and her friend! aren't they adorable!

 My friend wants to start a business up that caters mostly to brides and there wedding memories. I was having a lot of fun with her logo. This is just one sheet of many - what do ya think?

Love to spoon

The one above is a fun lil logo I created for friends who love to spoon! I have it now on 2 pillows :)
