You're Invited!

This month has been busy for Damsel Design, with assorted invitations for this and that! After all, it is that time of year when the sun comes out to play, and so does everyone else. Unlike it's evil twin (Winter...boo), Summer is the most inviting season to have a party, from Weddings, to Baby Showers, to staff Christmas Shows. It's the best time of year, and I hope you are all doing your bit to get out and enjoy the sunshine!

Design: Baby Shower Invitations
Description: My darling friend Jana is throwing a Baby Shower for her sister-in-law Shaz, and wanted some funky invitations to be designed as quickly as possible - the shower is at the end of this month. Damsel to the rescue! Shaz knows she is having a boy, so deciding on the theme was very easy. Throw in a few baby-like sketches I had come up with, and voila! Jana's Uncle is a printer, so all Damsel needed to do next was email the design to him in a high quality printable format. I am yet to see the finished product, but I'm sure I will be seeing it on Jana's fridge next time I pop around for a wine & a chat!

There was also another concept I had come up with, which was a 2-sided card the same size as that above, but a little "softer" in theme. Always note though, that 2-sided printing is a little more expensive that the standard 1-sided.

Design: Christmas Show Invitations for KONE Elevators

Description: Tis the season to be jolly, and jolly we will be! When December rolls around, offices and workplaces start to get jiggy with excitement of upcoming staff Christmas shows. One of my oldest, oldest (and I don't mean her age) friends, Jess, asked me to come up with a invitation design for her company's Christmas show. Jess was then going to print the invites in-house, and personally address each of them for all their staff members.

Like many other companies in this big, big, world, KONE have certain colour branding requirements that were to be considered in the design. These colours were a bright blue as the main, and a bright green, warm grey, and warm army-green as the supporting colours. Plus, we needed to make it Christmasy! Below is the final design that Jess and her team decided on:
