White Elephant Gift Print

I don't normally post things like this, but my husband's work did a white elephant gift exchange this year. Since it's a fairly new job and he'd never been to one of their holiday work parties before, he didn't really know what to bring or how serious they took the exchange. A friend of ours suggested the following "quote" or play on words, "HOME: Where the ho and me get together". A little more suggestive than I like, but the "cleanest" out of all the gift ideas we'd been given. So we decided to make it look nice and official, print it, then frame it in an old 5x7 frame we had sitting in storage. Next year, we'll go "all out" with something else after seeing what others brought, but still... I thought it turned out "nice." And who knows maybe someone won't notice what it actually says until one day they actually read it and hopefully they'll have a little chuckle.

First Birthday Party Invite

Our little one had his first birthday last August (yes, I'm a little behind). 
I love this little guy. Doesn't his grin just make you grin? 
We sent this as an e-vite to immediate family members.

Black & White Wedding Announcement

They wanted a more traditional and formal invitation. Black and white with an elegant element and then just a hint of red. I loved the final result - very classy!
They sent a picture with the invite attached with a little red circular paperclip.

Sweet Sixteen Party Invite

This awesome girl threw a "candy" party for her sweet sixteen, it was so fun to do her invite. 
She wanted all sorts of bright colors, but her favorite color is blue. 
She was also very excited about the gumball graphic I created.

Another Wedding Announcement

They had an entire wedding colors pallet. She let me just go to town picking my favorite pictures and layout for what I envisioned for their invite knowing their personalities. 
It was very fun to have so much versatility with this invite.
