A Very Special Boy's 1st Birthday!

Got something to say? No Comments »

I cannot believe that in about a month, my nephew is going to be turning a year old.  I know I keep saying it, but time is flying by!  My sister has been planning his party since about August and we've gone back and forth so many times since then with different ideas for the design of his invitations.  She finally picked the One-Derful Boy 1st Birthday and I got to work on an invitation that would compliment her purchased paper goods, etc.

My sister was, by far, the most annoying customer I've had since starting this business.  But, my nephew is my little boyfriend and my most favorite little guy.  I love him so much that it was all worth it in the end. 

We decided to do a two-sided card design that measures about 4x8.  I'm loving this design so much that I think I'm going to start offering it in the shop.  In the meantime, if you're interested in this design - or any others - shoot me an email to info@westwinddays.com!

Gina got in touch with us recently to do the invitation for her high school reunion. We based the design on our Floral Invitation and used her school's colors - green & gold. We provided Gina with a few different variations, but here is what she (with the help of her husband and their one year old son) came up with...

Kristi saw our Owl & Deer Baby Shower Invitation and thought it would be perfect as a birthday party invitation for her daughter Phoebe. It just so happens that Lacey had the same idea for her son Jonah's 1st birthday! We are always more than happy to make changes or do custom work, so we couldn't wait to work on these invitations. Both Kristi & Lacey couldn't have been any sweeter to work with! Here is what we came up with for both of them. (Jonah's adorable little photo was added to his invitation, but I've blurred his face out for his privacy and the privacy of his mom.)

Carrianne contacted us after seeing our Damask Wedding Monograms and wanted to modify one of the designs to be the logo on her photography blog. Being a photographer, Carrianne is familiar with Photoshop, so we supplied her with the "bare bones" and then she worked her own magic. Below is the blank slate we provided to Carrianne and then her finished product. Be sure to check out her photography blog - http://carriannephotography.blogspot.com/ and if you're in the Cary, IL area, you should definitely book her to shoot some photos for you!

My mother recently asked me to make a Save the Date for her company's annual holiday party. It was fun to work with Christmas colors in the middle of a heat wave. As my mother, she always loves everything I make, so of course she loved this.
