I was recently contacted by a previous client to help design a baby shower invitation for a shower she is hosting. The mom-to-be is having a boy and they wanted something that celebrated that.
I always love working with my clients and this experience was so great as always. Thanks again to Sam and Stephanie for trusting me with this project!
Happy New Year to all the folks that follow this little blog! In case you might have noticed things have been a little quiet around these parts. Over the last few months, MJ Squared Designs was moving to a new home! Unfortunately when buying a fixer-uppper, all your free time ends up going into the house so everything else ended up taking a back seat. We were so busy with moving and settling in that we never got a chance to send out holiday cards so instead we decided to send out these new years/moving announcement cards to our friends and family.

Now that things have settled down, my goal is to give this little blog a little bit more attention so expected to see new things soon!
I was contacted by Kate to do an anniversary invitation for her parents who were celebrating an amazing 40 years of wedded bliss! The design was left up to me and I decided to showcase the happy couple through the years and highlighting some very special moments.
A big thank you to Kate and her family for letting me design such a momentous invite and more importantly, a very happy anniversary to Kate's parents!
Charlotte is a very special little girl and I was honored when her mom asked me to help design an invitation for Charlotte's first birthday. Charlotte's mom left the creative design up to me but only asked that there be yellow and pink in the invitation and here's the final product!
I'm so excited for this little girl because I know she's going to have a great first birthday! Thanks again to Charlotte's mom for letting me be part of your lives! Happy 1st Birthday from MJ Squared Designs!
Fatima contacted me after she found my website while looking for beach themed bridal showers. She had a very specific vision in mind for the invitation since the bride was getting married in Jamaica and they were having an afternoon tea bridal shower so she wanted to marry the two ideas. She also liked the recipe card invitations I had previously done and wanted to incorporate that into the invitation as well. With so many ideas, I was worried about getting her vision right but I managed to get this idea designed out which Fatima loved.
Awhile back I got a call from a wedding planner letting me know that a bride she was working with was interested in having her bridal shower invitations designed by me. We discussed the venue and the theme and I learned that the location had a 1920s art deco decor to it which the bride would like to incorporate into the shower. From there I came up with 3 design samples for the bride and her wedding planner and the final pick ended up being the first one with some tweaks to the floral design and the addition of the bride & groom's monogram.
Kristy contacted me while planning her father-in-laws retirement party and was looking for a custom retirement party invitation that would help pay honor to her father-in-law's years of service as a foreman. I decided to do a few different variations of a construction theme and here's what I came up with.
Kristy ultimately decided on the classic 2nd option. Thanks Kristy for giving me an opportunity to have a little fun with these designs!
