Bridal Shower Invitations: Beach Theme

Starfish are apparently the new trend! As is getting married down the Cape! Here's another set of bridal shower invitations I'm working on right now. I'm using a light burgundy/berry color since it's the color of the bridesmaids' dresses and they wanted to tie the shower into the upcoming wedding. Just sent the proof off, so we'll see how much they develop over the next few days!

(I placed a crystal on the center of the starfish to add a little more glitz to it)



Wedding Invitations

Just finished my first set of actual wedding invitations. Over the past couple years I've been busy with shower invitations and wedding programs, so I was thrilled to get this assignment to design invitations. The couple technically already got married a few months back, but they wanted to have a fun celebration with close family and friends from around the world to celebrate their beautiful marriage.

They're a hip and young couple who wanted to keep things casual but classy, and fun but simple for their event. Here's to setting the tone....

Bridal Shower Invitations: Beach/Cape Cod Theme

Here are some bridal shower invitations I recently designed for a close childhood friend! The shower was in Boston right on the water. The September wedding will be down the Cape so the bridal party wanted a "beachy" Cape Cod theme.


I used a simple starfish that I repeated throughout the invite... which ended up being the theme to the entire event!




The bride's mom even ordered a great cake, from a bakery down the Cape, with starfish on it!

Welcome!

I needed a place where I could showcase my stationary design, photography, and show what I'm up to with all things design related. I also wanted a place where I could talk about all things design related from other up and coming designers, art shows and events, and share other blogs and websites from artists I admire. I decided to start this blog to do just that. My name is Chelsee (yes, with two e's!) and my middle name is Leigh... SeeLeigh. Welcome!
