Product & Print // 038

These colorful invites caught my eye immediately. Obviously I love that pink color, but the use of type and that black & white photo is beautiful. The couple with that wedding invite would also be using these princess straws on their day...and maybe some black & white ones too.

Kate Spade Illustrations

I adore the cheekiness of Kate Spade's Fall 2013 collection. I knew I wanted to continue with my fashion illustration series, but wanted to amp it up in terms of the shading. I'm kind of in love with that second look.



Any suggestions of a collection I should illustrate next? Have any all-time favorites?

Happy Friday!

Did anyone else feel like this was a long week? Later tonight I'll be heading to an event at Anthropologie with the PVD Lady Project, and I'm super excited. And because I didn't get to see my mom last weekend, she'll be visiting me this weekend :) And, fingers crossed, I'll get some new what i wore posts together!

Inspired Translation // 1

I'm so excited to be sharing a new bi-weekly column with Jessica from Creative Index! When Jessica approached me and asked if we wanted to collaborate, I was so excited! We came up with the idea of Inspired Translation - we would take one image and one quote, and create a design around it.

The quote:

All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

My Translation:


And that's my translation! The image was so fun and cheerful, I really enjoyed using these colors and patterns.

Don't forget to head over to Jessica's blog and she how she translated the image!! I can't wait to continue this series and share the designs we come up with :)
