Friends with Benefits


One of the benefits of having creative friends is receiving spectacular holiday cards, announcements and invitations. They do not accept the norm or do they send the usual off-the-shelf items. Whatever the occasion the card is over the top from a design sense. One of the most recent cards, I received was a birth announcement from my friend Amy. The design, illustration, photography and copy are all well thought out and compliment each other to make this wonderful card. Cards like these make it to my favorites drawer, but not before viewing it repeatedly over a few weeks and showing it off to all colleagues/friends & family that stop by.

Thank you, J, for your very sweet comments. You are a true friend. I cannot take credit alone, however. Rebekka helped me complete my vision and Catherine Kiernan, a photographer friend of mine, helped me capture the personality of my Addie Anne. And if you knew my daughter, you would already be able to tell that no store bought card would ever do. I think it was a successful collaboration ~ !
