PHCC Summer Water Initiative

This summer, I had the pleasure of working with the National Association of Plumbing, Heating and Cooling Contractors on a summer water conservation initiative. The non-profit was looking for a postcard to market to their members for purchase as a way to inform their customers the positive effects of conserving water during the summer months. It was a wonderful project to work on! I felt as though I was helping the NAPHCC in erasing carbon footprints by helping them get the word out to customers throughout the country.
Most PHCC member plumbers are still honoring the free water audits even though their summer initiative dates have passed. Feel free to call your local plumber and ask if they offer this service!

Sheri & Brad's Engagement Party Invites

Last week I had the pleasure of creating engagement party invitations for Sheri & Brad. Sheri is one of my dearest friends who recently got engaged to her wonderful fiance Brad. Sheri had no idea what she wanted to do for the design but she chose the great phrase " He asked... she said yes!" and wanted pink within the design. I chose to create a funky, retro feel design incorporating the phrase and color scheme she wanted and added a monogram as well. Sheri absolutely loved them and I loved creating them for her!

The "every season" color palette!

Mauve and Blush: what an amazing year round color palette!

I just love the softness of these colors together. Paired with a hint of champagne or gold accents, it gives such an warm, antique look without feeling matronly. Paired with silver and crystal accents, these colors appear crisp, bold and modern without being overbearing. Perfect for winter, spring, summer and fall, you can't help but see the endless possibilities of these colors with this board.

How time flies!

Wow, it's been almost a week since I've posted anything on my blog! Probably because the past few days have been incredibly busy! I just finished Sheri & Brad's engagement party invitations (I'll be sure to post pictures in a few days). More importanly, I've been working with our web site team to create a completely new layout for our site! Be sure to check back in the coming days for photos of our new logo and theme as well as check out the site over the next week to enjoy the upcoming changes!

For Sheri & Brad: Raspberry & Aqua!

So a friend of mine recently got engaged and she wants to use fushia in her color palette for her May wedding; her hubby-to-be wants to use blue. Well I may have found the perfect combination for them:

Raspberry and Aqua!

What a vibrant color scheme to start the summer off. Bright rasberry and aquas with hints of rose, lavander and green to soften it up! I'm hoping to create an inspiration board based on these colors but for now I'll share a few photos!

Enjoy Sheri & Brad!
