How many takes?

December 19th, 2011 § 2 Comments

Yesterday I decided I wanted to send a photo of Olive out with my Christmas cards. On a normal day, she can be quite cooperative, but yesterday was a different story. Here are a few outtakes of the 50 pictures it took to get the right one.

And finally, one that would do…

Tomorrow night (December 13) the Type Truck is rollin’ into Fort Worth, and you should be there! Kyle Durrie of Power and Light Press (located in Portland) has taken her truck across the US in an effort to educate the masses about the wonderful world of letterpress printing. You, too, can be a part of this fantastic journey at Piper Hall tomorrow. It’ll be fun. For more information, visit the Facebook event page.

Sylvia & Andy

This past Saturday Sylvia and Andy got married, and I had the pleasure of doing the complete event design and floral for their fall inspired event. It was so fun. Unfortunately, I was so busy running around I did not have the opportunity to take too many pictures, but here are a few. I’m looking forward to seeing what the photographer captured as I’m no professional, but I hope you enjoy!

While it’s been a work in progress for several months, I’m excited to officially announce the expansion of Blue Eye Brown Eye into event design. I find that brides often find it difficult to pull together their entire vision for their event, and I’m here to help with that. From paper products, escort cards, floral, bouquets, styling, table centerpieces, and beyond, Blue Eye Brown Eye offers expertise, creativity and cohesion to your event from beginning (the invitation) to end (the event).

If…

You’re interested in making the details of your event special…
You’re in love with vintage, rustic and natural looks…
You want something special, but not sure where to start…
You want to create a memorable, unique experience…
You’re obsessed with wedding blogs and design…

If you answered yes to all of the above, I’d love to meet to chat, brainstorm, plan, and develop the vision for your perfect day. I’m all about making it easy on you, eliminating stress, and executing your vision.

Baby Envelopes

I’d like to express my love for baby envelopes from Paper Source. They’re just so cute and tiny. I loved how these turned out – a favorite, white ink on grey.

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! What are your plans for the big night? I’ve got to be honest, I’m not one for dressing up, but I do love to dress Olive for Halloween. She’s been a hot dog for the past three years. Maybe next year I’ll get her something new! Have a safe holiday and eat lots of chocolate!
