This party invitation brings the experience of bowling to life with the big bowling ball on front aligning with the pins. Your introduction text and event print on the pins and the ball. The reverse reveals the ball knocking down the pins in the bowling alley and a strike is a definite! Party details print against the faux wood surface. Great for a kid's birthday party, a get together or a corporate bowling event.
Green beer has become a synonymous with St. Patrick's Day so celebrate that with this invitation featuring three glasses of green beer! The glasses sit on a wooden table as if in a typical Irish pub. Party information prints to the right of the beer glass with the glasses removed (and assumingly consumed) on the reverse. Add optional text on the reverse or delete it to leave the back blank.
Autumn leaves in various tones and transparencies make up the left edge of this postcard. Customized text sits against a cream colored background. A perfect postcard to send a quick Thanksgiving or autumn-timed message. Customize to use as an invitation or announcement.
A figure of a woman done in smooth curves stands out on this business card. The parchment background is overprinted with soft swirls and leaves. This would make a great card for a skincare salon, massage therapist, anti-aging center or even a plastic surgeon's office. Now I want a facial, or a massage, or maybe even a little Botox. :p
A graphic apple tree contains the symbol of a sweet New Year wish. Rosh Hashanah wishes stand out against a Star of David subtly-patterned gold background. Your own photo and customized information are easily added.
Being the end of July, most people are not thinking about Halloween quite yet. However, this being the POD world, we are full into designing for Halloween. I grew up on monster movies and shows... from the classic "Dracula" to "Godzilla" to "Chiller Theatre" and I have a pretty good tolerance for being scared in movies. However, I'm not so big on the slasher-type movies that are big now. I suppose that may be because they are too close to reality. No one expects a giant dragon to destroy Tokyo, but it's not outside the realm of possibilities to encounter a deranged psychopath.
With that being said, I had in mind Dracula's dungeon or a creepy castle when I designed this Halloween party invitation. Rather than cutesy Halloween with ghosts & Frankenstein monsters which many Halloween party invitations lend towards, I went for the all-out scary invite.
I've done a new wedding series in about five different colors. With June, summer is officially here (as I write this during a heat wave, it is 87 F at 10am!) Flowers are in full bloom (unless they're wilting in this heat), so I wanted to do a floral series. This lime green color is so summery that it makes me want to have a popsicle. The graphic flowers are outlined in white with a single flower repeated on the reverse. This would be a perfect choice for any summer wedding.
I think I'm just about the laziest semi-blogger around and haven't posted anything to this account in a while.
We're (finally) having warm weather here in the mid-Atlantic states and after all the rain we've been having it's starting to feel like summer is right around the corner. Owning up to that mindframe, I'm starting to add more summertime party products. I live not too far from the shore (but stay away in summer due to the crowds) and next week starts the official beginning of summer with Memorial Day. This invitation is all about the footwear that is so atypical of the season. I wanted it against a sandy background but then added a very graphic image of ocean waves for visual interest.
Hmmm, now I'm in the mood for a big icy smoothie. (alcohol is optional ;)
Planning a beach BBQ or clambake? This is a great invitation to set the mood. With a background in a turquoise blue, the seashells are knocked out to frame the customized text. Now I think I need a trip down the shore... ;)
So this is my entry into the Zazzle Graduation 2011 Design contest. I had plenty of graduation invitations but thought it would spur me to create something fabulous that would completely deserve to win grand prize. (LOL) I wanted to do a triad of photos but not just the atypical frame after frame, so I borrowed from the old Polaroid frames and set them at slight angles. Now I seriously doubt I'll even get any double-takes among all the incredible designs that are already up for this contest, but I figure "ya gotta be in it to win it!"
Commemorate that special day with three photos of the graduate. A great way to show them off as they are now or use as a photo timeline of their school career. The frames sit at slight angles against a creamy swirled floral background. Soft blue in the class year and rules is also used for a highlight.
