{Sweet Parties} Jill’s Baby Shower

November 16, 2010 By Heidi Leave a Comment

In the midst of designing holiday cards, we had a few baby shower invitation requests that were so much fun to work on! Baby showers are so much fun! We hope to have pictures of all of them to share with you in the next month or so. The first shower was for Jill. Her sisters-in-law hosted a sweet party in her honor to help her prepare for the newest addition to their family. Jill and her husband did not find out the gender of the baby, so Becky and Karen went with a cheery green and yellow color theme and chose one of my favorite invitation designs: the crib silhouette with a damask border.

The girls did a great job on the decorations. They took the invitation to a local bakery, Edible Art, and the cake turned out so cute!

And how fun is the mantle decoration, with the clothesline of baby items?

Thanks, girls, for sharing the pictures of the lovely shower and for using Sweet Birdie’s Nest for the invitations. We wish Jill the best as she enjoys this last month of her pregnancy.

{Decorating} A few of my favorite things….

November 13, 2010 By beverlymaynor Leave a Comment

Designing all these Christmas cards has got me in the mood to start decorating, so much in fact that I just told Heidi the other day I am ready to put up my Christmas trees! The worst part? I cannot stop with just one tree! In hopes to hold off on decorating, I thought I would post a few of my favorite things I have seen in the catalogs lately.

I loved this so much that we designed a new card inspired by the pillow!

{Holiday Cards} Grey Damask

November 11, 2010 By Heidi 1 Comment

You may remember my obsession with grey…so of course we had to figure out how to use this elegant, go-with-everything color for some of our holiday card designs. I am also obsessed with the damask pattern (our nursery fabric, moses basket fabric, car seat cover, and birth announcements are black and white damask), so I was thrilled to incorporate that too!

I also love these grey cards:

They’re a little more playful than the damask design but still so different from your traditional holiday card! So, what do you think? Do you love these grey holiday cards too? Visit our Etsy shop to see the rest of our holiday collection!

And don’t forget to “like” us on Facebook! Once we reach 100 fans, we’re going to offer a promotion just in time to purchase holiday cards!

{Holiday Cards} Elegant Black and Red Design

November 7, 2010 By Heidi Leave a Comment

We have created a lot of fun, festive holiday card designs but sometimes a more elegant, sophisticated design would be perfect. Using a red, black, and white color scheme, we’ve created some beautiful designs with more grown-up patterns. I think these would be perfect for newlyweds or for families with older children, although we can customize them for anyone!

This is one of my new favorites:
