Holiday Kisses

I absolutely adore this lovely kissing ball from Williams Sonoma. Crafted out of fresh holly sprigs and accents of cheery red illex berries, I think that it would be an adorable accent for any flower girl to carry as they promenade down the aisle. Even better, these charming pomanders would be the perfect way to accent any bride's wedding ceremony by tying them at the end of each aisle using flowing ribbon streamers in coordinating wedding tones. They would add the perfect touch of whimsy as well as an amazingly classic holiday aroma with their crisp fresh cut foliage fragrance.

New Company Logo Design - See Jane Party

See Jane....see Jane work....but see Jane Party, now THAT is definitely a sight to be seen!

Check out the new logo design that I recently completed for Maggie Massaro and her business partner, Katie Sullivan, for their new event planning venture based out of Washington, D.C. See Jane Party is the clever name these dynamic ladies have selected for their new event planning company and let me just say that I was just so incredibly thrilled when Maggie contacted me to create the logo for them. I have worked with Maggie previously as I designed some monogram designs, water bottle labels, etc. for her and her fiance, Timothy, for their wedding earlier this year. I am currently working on a business card design for the pair as well, but I absolutely had to go ahead and unveil their fabulous logo design because I just love it and think that it is just so much fun! With the strong, bold contrast of a sunny vibrant yellow toned ornately regal inspired graphic accented with sleek ebony black toned embellishments and a flirty, yet sophisticated font, this design has both a professional and a funky appeal certain to catch the eye of coorperate executives and your general party-goers alike!

New Custom Wedding Monogram Design - Amy and Leo

I just recently completed several custom projects for Amy that I will be sharing very soon, but I also wanted to share the very special custom monogram that I designed for her and her fiance as well. It is a custom damask graphic that I created from scratch per se using multiple organically styled elements combined together to create a lovely damask shape reminiscent of a shape / outline of a traditional Christmas tree! Amy and Leo's wedding is just around the corner on December 22nd and they have a lovely Christmas inspiration for a vast amount of their wedding elements. Amy even requested that I tie in the theme of 12 Days of Christmas into many of her detailed wedding elements including the designs for her table number cards and pretty place cards as well. I was SO excited about Amy and Leo's request and absolutely love, love, love the way that all of their designs turned out! I can only imagine that their wedding is going to be completely gorgeous and absolutely filled with the joy and beauty of the holiday season. I cannot wait to share all of the other special designs that I have created for this fabulous couple, but first, here is the custom monogram design that started it all!

Janine and Robert's Photobooth Sign

I previously posted earlier in the year about working on some damask patterned water bottle labels for Janine and Robert's November wedding and also wanted to share another project that I designed for this special couples wedding reception as well. It was a custom designed photobooth sign in black and dusty pink tones that I printed on metallic Stardreams cardstock and then framed with a classic black photo mat for a finished look. This way the sign could be presented as is on an easel or the couple may frame the sign for a more formal look. Here is a picture that I took of the completed sign....I had a lot of fun working on this project and I absolutely loved the way it turned out! This same concept could be used for a candy buffet sign, guest book table sign or any other signage that you might like to use at your wedding or other special event.

New Wedding Monogram Designs - Zena and Frederick

Check out these fab-u-lous monogram designs that I recently completed for Zena and Frederick's upcoming wedding in August 09'. Created purely from Zena's own Pucci inspired wedding vision, these sassy designs feature a jeweled color palette of cobalt and turquoise tones accented with crisp white and black tones...a pop of vibrant golden yellow tones was used in a couple of the designs for a unique splash of the unexpected! Here are the Pucci shoes that Zena drew the overall inspiration for her upcoming wedding from, followed by her completed monogram designs. The first three were designed with the Pucci theme in mind and the last was a departure from the theme and was designed using a whimsical, delicate floral motif for a varied look. Enjoy!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I just wanted to take a moment to say that I truly hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and enjoyed the day with those that they love the most. I am sending many prayers and blessings to all of you for a safe and prosperous day and for the days, weeks and years to come! I know that personally, I feel beyond blessed and am so very grateful for everyone and everything that is a part of my life. You are all amazing and I cannot thank you enough!

I also wanted to apologize for my current lack of posting and for any delays in project orders. I have been incredibly busy these past few weeks and as a result, have been delayed in many of my current projects and for this I am so sorry, but I promise that I have not forgotten about any of you and will have your orders to you very soon. Between the rush of the impending wedding and event season, the holiday season upon us and my heightened pregnancy symptoms, it has caused me to become a bit behind, much more so than I am accustomed to or like to be, but I am finally beginning to feel a bit better and hope to be back on track in the coming days and weeks. My sincerest apologies for my delayed response and for my severe lack in blogging as well.....I am hoping to be back to my normal blogging self as soon as possible! :) Although, I will continue to limit my orders in the coming months as I progress in my pregnancy in order to maintain a good level of health for both myself and the baby. With that being said, I will continue to do as much as possible and will certainly try to accommodate any and all requests within reason based on my availability throughout the upcoming months. Thank you all again for your continued praise and support.

Ode to the Birdcage Veil......

Oh birdcage veil, how I do love thee.....so delicate and feminine, yet sassy and edgy at the same time. I adore you and only wish that I had discovered you years ago so that I could have been so lucky to have worn you on my wedding day. :)

Holiday Card 2008 - Merry Christmas from the Enlow's

This was *officially* my first holiday card design of the season and it definitely got me feeling the holiday spirit! This card I designed for Cheryl and Jared, who are newlyweds and wanted to include one of their lovely wedding photos in the holiday cards they send out to their family and friends this year. The fabulous holiday card features a rich chocolate brown tone as the foundation of the card design accented with a delicate damask pattern and floral embellishments in festive olive green and warm crimson red tones for a true Christmas appeal. I just LOVE the color combination and think that it turned out perfectly!
