This year I went with the new Trifold style for our Christmas cards. It is REALLY difficult to get good photos of two kids at the same time. It only took 5 separate photo shoots to get the pictures for our card. But I’m very pleased with how they came out:

Trifold Christmas Card

I just wanted to share this awesome holiday card I did yesterday. This is the best pet picture I have ever seen. Yes, we do pet holiday cards too!

Vintage Peace dog card

The photo was taken by CJ Isaac Photography in Atlanta.

I have had a few birthday invitation designs in the works, and I finally added them to the website.

Wild Things Design:
This design was created for my soon-to-be five year old daughter’s upcoming Where The Wild Things Are birthday party. That’s her wearing the crown!

Surprise Design:

Superhero:
This was created for a little boy’s super cool superhero birthday party.

I’ve added some new designs to the birth announcement gallery!



Just in time for holiday cards! The trifold style is a 5×5 folded card that opens up to a 5×15 size card with 6 panels. You can order any design on the website in the trifold format.

Here is a large view of the ‘Bliss Blue’ design in trifold style:
