OH BABY!


My friends, Albert and Tasha, are expecting a baby boy. Their baby shower was last weekend, so I made these candy bag favors.





I was inspired by the children's rhyme: "What are little boys made of? Frogs and snails and puppy dogs' tails, that's what little boys are made of." So I bought some Haribo frog gummies and put them into individual cellophane bags. I rubber-stamped OH BABY (the baby's last name is Oh!) onto muslin bags and put a small thank-you note and the candies inside for guests to enjoy.

Sneak peek: Ben and Marci Invitations


I'm so excited about an invitation set I've been working on for Ben and Marci, one of the nicest and coolest couples I've worked with. They live in Brooklyn and are getting married in New York this fall. I will share more photos later when all the pieces are completed, but here is a sneak peek of the letterpress portion for now. The photos here are press check images from Studio on Fire, the printer I used. They do an incredible printing job and were lovely to work with.
