It was fun switching gears from wedding designs to children designs with this invitation for my cousin Jackie's son Aidan's 6th birthday party. Aidan wanted a Star Wars/Darth Vader themed party where his friends could dress up for Halloween. I had fun researching Star Wars fonts, images and terminology!
"Great job on the invites Krista - got sooooo many compliments!"

I designed this logo for jewelry company Peace of Silver. The owner Katie wanted to incorporate peacefulness with the tree and birds. She also wanted to use these 2 colors and an owl. I love how the font's shapes and movements match that of the tree branches.
This was a fun vintage rehearsal dinner invite I made for my sister's soon-to-be mother-in-law. I started out with the spoons and then came up with the monogram. From there I had the vision of keeping it one color and printing it on an off-white paper. I found this card stock with an embossed border which worked perfectly for the vintage look. The cool antique font also worked so well.
Once I was about done designing the card, it crossed my mind to print the spoons on the front of the envelopes for that extra touch. I love these spoons!
I designed this invitation for my sister's NJ bridal shower. I drew up this outline of a bride in Illustrator with the idea of adding an actual ribbon to the waistline of the dress. I carried the flower in her hair to the look of the inside of the card.
I made these bridal shower invites for my sister's soon-to-be mother-in-law. The shower was a tea party theme, so I made them girly and dainty on an off-white card stock. We stuck with my sister's wedding colors, plum and green. For a final touch, I decided to add the ribbon bow.
I've been working on a whole wedding package for my sister Lauren's wedding in October. The bridesmaids' dresses are plum/eggplant, so we stuck to that color scheme along with green. I've been having so much fun making everything from these save the dates, to bridal shower invites, to the actual wedding invites. Her fiance Micah is from FL and she's a Jersey girl, so I thought this Bruce Springsteen lyric would be perfect. They are also a laid back couple and Micah is a musician, so I made the card more fun rather than formal. The formal part could wait until the wedding invites, which will be posted in about a month- stay tuned :)
I designed this wedding invitation for my friend Laura. She wanted one color, so we experimented with brown, orange and then shades of green, which eventually led to the final decision to use the unique and pretty chartreuse. I love, love, love the beautiful font used for their monogram. I worked with a great printer, Poorvi at Calico Printing & Graphics, Inc. She creates beautiful custom invitations using pretty metallic paper stocks. She had the idea to round the corners which was a nice added touch.I had fun taking this montage of pictures using my plant, a piece of palm tree and my watering can which just happened to match perfectly.
This was a holiday card I designed for my boyfriend and me. We wanted to share our California adventures with our New Jersey family and friends. I'm so glad we decided to spend time here on our San Francisco trip. Muir Woods and the redwoods were just beautiful.
My sister Danielle ordered Baptism invitations, but needed a custom reply card with meal choices to match what she already had. I matched the pale pink color and thought to add a pretty angel image. Danielle printed these on a nice white textured paper.
I designed this save the date for WorkCare's annual dinner event at the American Industrial Hygiene Conference and Expo. I turned a picture of the old Denver restaurant into one color, which gave it that distressed look with the brick and tree elements. I also incorporated the font Rosewood that they have in their banner.
