Thanks for giving my Fiancé the Heimlich Maneuver

My fiancé, Ben, almost choked on his lunch last week at work. Kurt came to the rescue and delivered the Heimlich Maneuver just in time!

This is the note that I am sending along with some chocolate chip cookies (and a bottle of wine) to Kurt. It is a very sincere note, but I couldn’t help but make a little joke with this thank you card. I mean, how often does someone save your fiancé’s life at work! He works in social media… it’s not really a high risk environment.

Hilarious right? and thank goodness these tiny spiraea florets came in today to further my “beyond hipster tongue in cheek” but still very very serious note.

Here are the cookies… they are really good too… My secret recipe and Ben’s FAVORITE!

Jose & Joel’s wedding invitation

Image

Last year I got the opportunity to collaborate with Lisa Vorce on Jose Villa and Joel Serrato’s wedding invitation. Tiny Pine was responsible for the graphic design and layouts. Papel & Press printed the suite and I think the invitation turned out lovely and pristine. I always love to work creatively with this group because it turns out splendidly every time. It’s always also great to design something and see the production finished so nicely. 

And I have to give a special mention to Anne Jones!!! She did an amazing job with the calligraphy. I know Annie must have written very slowly on that leather. She does some impressive work! 

Anyway, I am extremely proud of this work and that I was able to contribute to Jose and Joel’s wonderful wedding. And here is the link to the Martha blog feature

enjoy!
