INVITATIONS + PAPERGOODS
Along with graphic design comes the social part of life which means celebrations and parties! I enjoy using handlettering in combination with graphic design to make invitations for gatherings, thank you cards, save the dates, etc.
I love to take a simple photo and add text or do an entire layout of text with a graphic. I thoroughly enjoy making an entire suite of papergoods to be seen together as a set. These sets can be for weddings, gatherings, etc. I usually begin a set with inspirational images chosen by myself or whomever the suite is being designed for. The chosen images help facilitate the look and feel for the suite by providing direction for the design. After examining the images a color scheme is decided and then fonts to be used. The media by which the design will be printed is also decided and the papergoods incur several iterations. These iterations are approved and further developed until the final design is decided upon. Once consensus has been met the invitations are sent off for printing and the deed is done!
