STATIONERY || Valentine’s Day Freebies!

Featured

Handwritten cards and candy: two of my favorite things and two things that happen to come quite often on Valentine’s Day. Since I probably would have eaten all the candy before I could give it away, I’m instead giving away four free hand-written Mini Valentine’s Card printables!

Many of my personal calligraphy projects draw from music I’ve been listening to recently. The first two printables draw from my latest obsessions: Sam Hunt‘s “Speakers” and Beyoncé’s “XO”. The third one is a tribute to my greatest girl friends, and the last references the classic Love Actually. All the printables also feature the 2015 Pantone Color of the Year, Marsala! I am loving this wine-y red so much, especially the Sephora lipstick. It’s perfection.

Special thanks for SC Stock Shop for the beautiful lifestyle images!

Instructions for the Hand-Written Mini Valentine’s Card Printable

1. Download the two PDF files below (front and back).

2. Print the PDFs double-sided (flip on long edge) so each card has the hand-written quote on the front and the message on the reverse side. You can also print single-sided if you don’t want the message on the reverse side.

3. Trim along the dotted line.

4. Love on your loved one!

WEDDING || Julia & Deric

A classic theme + the Escala in Downtown Seattle + a bride who loves fine paper = a dream wedding! I had such a blast working with Julia & Deric to bring their classy, gold & black wedding come to life. Julia owns a stylish, modern parenting store in Spokane and has an eye for beautiful paper goods which delighted me! This wedding was a little extra special because not only are Julia & Deric great friends, but my very own husband officiated the wedding! Preacher’s wife for the night? Yes, please.

BABY SHOWER || Jacob & Lili Klein

One of my closest friends found out she was going to be an auntie and I naturally jumped on the opportunity to design the invitation suite for the baby shower! Jacob & Lili Klein are expecting their little one this fall and Lili’s sister, Laine, is going to be throwing the woodsy-inspired shower. Laine wanted something that was sweet and whimsical. To begin, I hand-lettered the invitation and then digitized the lettering to create the invitations. The envelope addresses matched with whimsical white writing. Here’s to Baby Klein, can’t wait to meet you little one!

WEDDING || Blakely & Matt

I’ve been obsessed with Gatsby-esque things ever since the new film came out. I became even more obsessed after doing Blakely & Matt’s wedding suite! The combination of black and gold elegance had me loving every minute of working on this project, not to mention absolutely wonderful clients with a beautiful vision!
