Happy Roasting!

November 24, 2010 cynthia 1 Comment

I just finished creating this project for Cafe Rouge Meat Market (and Restaurant). It couldn't have been a more perfect project for this time of year... a Meat Roast-Timer! Marsha McBride the chef/owner of Cafe Rouge had found an old promotional piece (circa 1950's) from Little City Meats, a traditional butcher shop in San Francisco, and wanted me to create something similar. I … [Read more...]

Love Under The Tuscan Sun

October 25, 2010 cynthia 3 Comments

I'm craving a little sunshine and warmth today so I thought I'd post about a wedding in Tuscany, Italy. Katie, the bride, had seen the "Amore" graphic on my website and asked if I could create a "Save the Date" using this typographic design.... of course, I was delighted. Both she and her fiance, Ben, really liked the rough textured background on my original design which I … [Read more...]

I have always wanted to tell the story behind my dear friend, Maria's, wedding invitation design. The above image is the incredible reference/inspiration material that Maria first brought to me. She had found this invitation, from Mexico circa 1939, amongst her Grandmother's things. The moment I saw it I knew I had died and gone to heaven! The design is so spectacular and … [Read more...]

Brides Magazine Feature

August 17, 2010 cynthia 1 Comment

I'm excited to announce my first printed feature in the September issue of BRIDES magazine! I had so much fun creating this youthful wedding invitation. I hand-lettered all of the text inspired by fonts I found in an old grammar book. The illustrations too, are from or inspired by my collection of school books from the 40's and 50's. I silkscreen printed the invitation and … [Read more...]

Botanical menu

August 9, 2010 cynthia 1 Comment

I have always loved old botanical prints. I created this menu cover for a intimate wedding feast. I used a black and white image of tulips from an old book and hand-lettered the bride and groom's names in the ribbon banner. There were a small number of guests attending this dinner so I was able to hand-paint the tulips on each menu. The results were beautiful. Each guest … [Read more...]
