Dreaming Of Dexter

Friday, October 8th, 2010

I’m trying really hard not to turn Twig & Thistle into the Ty Mattson Fan Club but the guy isn’t making it easy! Case in point, these Dexter inspired posters are wonderful! Each one is like a delightful season overview with plenty of little details for fans of the show. Check them all out here.



Anniversary Invitation by {frolic}

Wednesday, October 6th, 2010

These are just the sweetest anniversary invites I have ever seen! The amazing, wonderfully talented and beautiful Chelsea of {frolic}, put these together for her parents 40th wedding anniversary celebration. I can’t get over the fabric lined envelopes – such a clever and adorable idea! I love how she mixed the craft texture with the cotton fabric as well; it must have made them a treat to receive!



Well Branded: Constellation & Co.

Tuesday, October 5th, 2010

I’m loving the identity package for this new local design boutique here in Seattle. Husband and wife team, Brad and Sara McNally, recently opened their design studio which focuses on letterpress, screen printing and handmade ephemera. The Constellation & Co. brick and mortor shop will be opening soon and I can’t hardly wait!

Some details from their beautiful custom wedding invitation collection.



Above are some photos of a birth announcement I’ve been working on for my brother and sister-in-law. Isn’t that just the sweetest name and most precious little girl?!

Each were letterpressed onto Fluorescent White 110 lb. Lettra Paper. The Papaya Envelopes from Paper Source are lined with a matching custom liner and the photos are attached with strips of foam mounting tape for depth. I  just have to finish attaching each of the photos and then I can send them to the beautiful parents. I can’t wait and I hope they like them!
