Birthday Thank You Postcards

Remember Lucas' 5th birthday party extravaganza a few weeks ago? It was super fun and wild and I'm so happy it's over! Lucas is a lucky kid -- he received so much love and so many gifts from friends and family. For Lucas' 3rd birthday, I made the mistake of letting him go to town with opening his presents. He ripped through each one and tossed them to the side only to make room to grab the next one. I was appalled -- but really, what did I expect?

Since then, I've learned my lesson and now Lucas gets to open two presents a day, starting with the card. After thoroughly enjoying and appreciating each gift, we write a thank you note. I write and Lucas signs it in his signature block lettering.

I designed these double sided double thick thank you postcards to show our appreciation -- similar to the ones from last year's Superhero 4th Birthday Party. The front of the postcard has a collage of photos from the party and the back has the animal print pattern from the invitations I designed. I personally love postcards rather than cards when writing thank you notes for parties because they're more casual, as well as save money on postage and envelopes.

My Work: Picnic Logo Design + Branding

I'm really excited to share some recent logo design/branding I did for my friend Lisa Fontaine's company and blog, Picnic. Lisa wanted a new identity for her small business and blog where she shares crafts, style, recipes and more. She has an Etsy shop, a print shop, and a boutique film production company. There is more to be done in the future but I wanted to share some of the progress. The business cards were letterpress printed in black on cotton paper by Spark Letterpress. The hang tags were letterpress printed onto kraft chipboard for a more crafty feel.

I also designed a custom rubber stamp with a coordinating logo for Camp Picnic, a super cute arts and crafts camp that Lisa will be teaching to children during the summer months. Campers explore weaving, natural dye, vegetable prints, bead making, cooking, painting, collage, and some basic sewing techniques. The camp is already sold out for this summer but If you know any kids (ages 6-11) in the Bay Area who love art and crafting, sign up to get on Camp Picnic's mailing list.
