Custom Wedding Thank You Cards

A colleague of mine recently got married so we worked together to design some stylish thank you cards for him and his husband to thank all of his guests.

 The couple chose cream watercolor card stock and some eco-friendly natural cardstock made from with recycled paper. 
Their wedding colors were plum and pumpkin, so we used a dark purple for the haberdashery style font greeting and classy black for the gentlemanly bowties inside.
Stay tuned as we revisit this theme for some new congratulations cards - they were specially requested by our friends at Local Take in the Castro.

DIY Mother's Day Gift

These washi tape decorated clothespins make a wonderful Mother's Day gift!  They're cute and super easy and, best of all, they serve a purpose!  I superglued very strong and tiny magnets to the backs of them so they will stay put on the fridge door.  No more weak magnets falling to the floor when you try to hold up a thicker piece of paper!

You can get all kinds of lovely patterns on washi tape on Etsy.  I will be gifting a set of these to each of my mom and my mother-in-law along with a few of Baby CP's art work projects.
