chirp revealed!

still remember the back view of two birds couple months back?


i had a chance to create a pair of love birds wedding cake toppers for joey and johnny a couple months ago, but i didnt want to reveal them until their wedding. they were looking for something cute and cuddly, so i made the birds a little chubbier than they have asked for.  


to give it a little personal touch, i made the groom a little chubbier than the bride, since johnny LOVES food. i put rosey cheeks on the bride to make her girlier to match sweet sweet joey.

i wanted johnny and joey to be able to display the birdies in their house after the wedding, so i made them a little bigger. they were almost as big as the first tier cake... 



isnt this such a cute picture?

(i was told these birdies were a big hit at the wedding!)

birthday celebration

what could be better than to celebrate a birthday carnival style? a birthday card with carnival flags is just perfect for the occasion!


love the way those little flags in fun colors overlapped, so happy, so sweet and so festive! 

yuko - menu

with a limited budget for yuko and greg's reception menu, i did this simple yet cute menu for them. it was printed in color on a flat 4 x 7 heavy cardstock.  


i love the two birdies standing on top of the e and the n, very cute and lovey-dovey, just like yuko and greg :)

Mi Familia

so glad to finally be done with my own wedding, it was so much harder than planning weddings for other brides! i never knew it would be as time consuming as it was... 

 before i have all the details organized, here is this a fun family portrait :) 


i had a lot of fun creating this family cake toppers, they came out so well! i couldnt decide which one i enjoyed more of making, henry or kammie, because i love henry's hair (both hair and facial hair) and kammie's tutu.

(i had no idea who decided to put a flower between henry and myself... it totally took the focus away from kammie's tutu)

chirp!


i am really excited to post something unique today! i can only post the back view of these lovely friends because they havent not been seen by the public, they will not be debuted for couple more weeks in napa valley!

one may ask "why are these two being introduced on paperiesheep?"

believe it or not, THEY ARE MADE WITH PAPER :)

had a lot of fun working on this layer invitation with chandelier, the colors were sweet and romantic, just like the bride!



i love paper with texture, LOVE LOVE LOVE! it was quite a challenge to trim them to size and have the chandeliers on all pages to line up perfectly. 


 

the pages are as pretty on its own as layered.

J & J


purple and green is a lovely and popular color combination for weddings, to make it stand out from the rest of the wedding, i picked a handmade paper for this invitaiton. i love the irregular pattern of the purple handmade paper.

to bring out the richness of the purple, i chose a vibrant kiwi green, it add a little bit more pop to the invitation.

 

the inserts had some green pattern decorating the top so it would peek through the sleeves.


 

i love an understated pattern, it adds a bit of color yet doesn't crowd the page.
