Love Under The Tuscan Sun

October 25, 2010 cynthia

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...]

Wedding In Oaxaca

September 30, 2010 cynthia

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...]

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...]

Festive Wedding

August 14, 2010 cynthia

Sometimes the most simple design can be so pleasing. That's the way I feel about this wedding invitation that I created for my friends Mark & Melissa. They chose a beautiful pale blue paper and we silkscreen printed it together in hot red ink. I hand-lettered the text and created the silhouettes using reference from traditional papel picados. Their wedding celebration was … [Read more...]
