Stationery for sisters Giselle & Keziah - Fairies

Apologies everyone - I know its been ages since my last post but its been an absolute manic time for me!!!

Don't get me wrong, I've loved every minute of it - the orders have been pouring in, enough to satiate the creative demons in me......but I must admit that trying to juggle a full time designing job, a toddler bang in the middle of her 'terrible 2's' and maintain some semblance of a social life is quite exhausting to put it mildly :)

 

It's funny, when I first started out, I had the typical fears of whether anyone would buy into the idea of 'bespoke stationery' and if I would even be given a chance to share my vision with others....count down 5 months to the date and I've been busy as a bee, designing stationery across a host of interesting and unusual themes. 

 

Here's one I did for sisters Keziah and Giselle....their mom was looking for something magical, angelic and girlie and lo behold!.....the fairies were created. Wanted to have the figures identical to maintain the sisterly theme and used the clouds to support the heavenly look and feel....

 

Before I sign off, I have to take a few minutes to say a great big thank you to Dubai Confidential, Aquarius Magazine, MomSouq.com and TimeOut Kids Dubai for featuring me and Paper Couture - my reach would not be as wide without your support! 

Soccer Birthday Party

Happy to be sharing with you another great boy themed party (although can be used for a girl also). It was for Milo's 6th birthday and the colours his mother suggested were black white and green. I've seen a lot soccer themed birthdays and while I love the colours, I wanted to add a little more oomph to it, which is when I added a hint of red!  So with soccer balls and green grass spinning around in my head, I designed water bottle wrappers, gift tags, stickers, signs and cup cake flags keeping with the KISS principle - keep it simple, stupid!

Had a blast designing all of it especially the welcome sign that said 'Let's kick off Milo's party' a sign on the food table that said 'Hope you're having a BALL!', and the gift bags that said 'GAME OVER!'.

Below are a few pics from the party and the printable stationery set. 

 

Traditional Stationery Set - The D'souzas

Stationery for years now, has been an important part of good social etiquette. A hand-written note can be kept and treasured and can show ones taste and flair.

Below is a stationery set  I designed. It is classic, ornate and traditional in style. The set consists of bottle tags, note cards, thank you cards, flat note cards, letterheads, stickers and gift tags.

Save the date!

I've done a fair number of wedding cards before but I knew from the get go, this would be a fun one to design. Carlin and Tasha came to me to get their wedding stationery designed. We've just done the save the date card so far and I absolutely love it if I have to say so myself.
They're having a destination wedding and wanted the invite to reflect their personalities - fun, simple, humorous and very much in love!
Below is their card. Invitation and other stationery to follow. Stay tuned...
