recent work // 80th birthday invites
We have lots of work waiting in the wings to show you. Like these invitations we designed + letterpress printed back in August. Paul turned 80 and we were given the opportunity to design invitations for his birthday celebration. We were asked to use larger type for the senior guests and to pay tribute to his career as an Air Force pilot through the design. We’re thrilled with how they turned out.
duet letterpress // in martha stewart weddings
We ended the year with a bang – being featured in Martha Stewart Weddings! Back in July we were contacted to see if we were interested in working with them on a stationery story for their 2013 winter issue. We said, “Yes!” and modified our popular custom sketch moving announcement for a fresh take on the 1950s traditional “At Home” card.
christmas 2012
Since this year Christmas was a four day holiday weekend, we drove to Louisiana to celebrate with family and came back to our house Christmas Eve. This was also the year Em really got the magic + excitement of Christmas so it was nice to be in our home Christmas day. We started new traditions – placing milk + cookies out for Santa and opening a gift of Christmas pajamas on Christmas Eve. We put out all of her presents + Santa’s gifts Christmas Eve so Christmas morning she was quite shocked to see everything under the tree. We placed letterpress printed “E” tags on all of her gifts. She had a blast spotting all of the “E”s to open.
How was your holiday? I hope it was warm + wonderful.
em approved // gifts for two year olds
Here’s what Em loved when she was 2 years old. She also loved a few big things like her Magical Castle Dollhouse
Moon Dough
Crayola Washable Markers - She loves coloring with these.
AquaDoodle Classic Mat - Like painting but without the mess since it just uses water.
Cloud b Twilight Constellation Night Light Lady Bug - She enjoyed bringing this ladybug into the dark bathroom, flipping on the colors and searching for the moon. I think it helped her not be scared of the dark [yet].
Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Figure Play Set - Em plays with these and her Disney Princess Figure Play Set
em approved // gifts for 18 month olds
Because Em’s birthday is in the spring, she was about 18 months old around Chirstmas time. These are the things she loved.
Around 16-18+ months, coloring was a real hit with her. She loved this Crayola Sidewalk Chalk Bucket
She also was gifted this VTech Preschool Learning Alphabet Apple
