Holiday Cards Are On Their Way!

It's October already!! Where does the time go? October should make me think of fall and halloween, but instead my brain instantly jumps to Christmas! I already feel like I'm behind the curve in getting my holiday cards designed. I have been working on holiday cards, with LOTS more to come, but a few designs have already made their way to my etsy shop!

As with all my designs, these cards can be purchased in digital or printed format. Our printed cards are printed onto thick 110 lb recycled cardstock, making them high quality AND eco friendly! Each design has the option of being double sided, so you can add more pictures, a christmas newsletter, or just continue the design on the back side for a cohesive print!

Here's a preview of what's coming for 2009 Holidays:

More projects to share

Well, it's been a long time since I posted new projects! That means one of two things: either I am not making anything new, or I've been so busy that I haven't had time to post all my new things!! Luckily, my situation was the latter of the two! It's been a great summer for Bean Sprout Studio. I was contracted by Hoorray.com (again) for more photocard designs, I designed wedding invitations for a friend's wedding, and my etsy shop continues to grow! All good things.

As my business grows, I've decided to spend less time on custom logo and business package designs (fun- but a TON of hours), and instead focus more on the photocard/invitation side of my business. The invitations and announcements are so fun! It's so much fun to be a part of someone's special event, whether it's their wedding or a new baby- I get to create something to announce their good news to the world. It's rewarding, creative, and just plain fun. I'll be working the rest of this week on updating my blog with the TONS of new projects I have completed over the last few months. To get us started, I am sharing a save the date announcement I did for Paige. I love that she chose my bookmarks for the save the dates for her wedding that is being held in an old library. Too cool!

New Branding For Cherry Creek Designs

I recently had the pleasure of working with Heather Gill of Cherry Creek Designs. Heather is a very talented jewelry artisan and we are practically neighbors! Heather contacted me and was interested in a a new brand identity for her jewelry. Her charms were recently featured in Modern Bride Magazine too! So of course, I was really excited to work with her. Heather was extremely pleased with the whole process, and was even nice enough to write this wonderful blog post about working with me here.

And here is the end result of our various projects together:

Thanks Heather for choosing me, and for being so wonderful to work with!!!

Where I've been...

Well, I must first apologize for having gone MIA on you, but the reason I went MIA is a good one! I have been CRAZY busy for the last month and a half. June was my best month EVER by about 750%!!! Over the next few days I'm going to try and post what I've been doing over the last month and half.

First and foremost, I am very excited to announce that my photocards and invitations caught the eye of a new and emerging website called Hoorray.com. Back in the beginning of June, Hoorray contacted me and asked if I would be interested in designing photocards and invitations for their new website (think shutterfly.com). Of course I said yes, and the negotiations began. In the end, I struck a deal with Hoorray.com to design 31 invitations and thank you notes for their new site.

The website is almost ready to launch, but you can check out the "shell" now at Hoorray.com.

Here is a sneak peak at my designs sold exclusively on Hoorray.com:
