Parties rock so the studio considers it a privilege to design invitations for them. Here is another wedding shower invite we did with a peony and phlox theme. The soon-to-be-bride enjoys the colors of teal and coral so we painted flowers to match her favorites. Watercolors were the medium of choice. Click here to order yours!

It is that time of year when family reunions are in full bloom. This T-shirt was designed for such an occasion. In 1904, the Chellman family crossed the sea to America from their beloved Sweden. Since then, the family has gathered for their father’s birthday since 1938. Of course their father is no longer with them, but they still continue to get together and reunite. To purchase your shirt, please email us today!

Guests were encouraged to strap on their hiking books and come out for an Adventure Baby Shower. The actual backpack-diaper bag that the baby received was hand drawn and filled with adventure related items, just like a real backpack would contain. The map, flashlight and baby bottle canteen all had important shower details printed on them. They then were cut on our handy-dandy Silver Bullet cutter. The backpacks were stuffed and the invitations mailed out. Thus the adventure began!

Wow! What an amazing night SMH had videotaping Dancing with the Celebrities at the Palace Theatre in Greensburg, PA. Once again; our claim is for graphic design and illustration, not videography. When the need arises, however, we are more than delighted to oblige. It was a fun and exciting evening. ALL of the dancers did a fantastic job. Benefits from the event were directed to the Animals Friends of Westmoraland, a non-profit animal shelter in Youngwood, PA. Please find our productions on our YouTube channel by clicking here.

With wedding season just around the corner, the studio was honored to create these super special Save the Date announcements. Using lavender, felt envelopes and a black and white photo; these cards were a pleasure to create. They were then sealed with a deeper, purple return address label cut in an oval shape to match the oval behind the names and date. Of course it helped that violets and blue bells were in bloom at the time. It made the project “plum” sweet.

As graphic designers and fine artists, the studio does not make its claim to videography. When the need arises, however, one must do what one must do. In this case it gave us great joy and satisfaction to be apart of the 2017 Spring Showcase at TDI Ballroom Dance Studio. In-between dancing the night away, we were able to earn our keep by recording for all to enjoy. Please find these recordings on TDI’s YouTube channel simply by clicking here.
