I met Darvie through theknot.com in the Fall of 2007. She was a bride who almost hired the same horrible wedding coordinator that I did. Luckily, she changed her mind and went with
Amanda Auer instead. {Smart move on her part}. The invitation designer she had originally contacted was unavailable. So, she asked me to design her invitations for her. I started working on them. Then, her original designer came available. She politely told me that she was going to go back to working with him. I was tad relieved because I was still working my day job. At the time, I had not even considered designing invitations professionally. Invitations were something I just did "for fun". I credit Darvie for getting me to consider making invitations for people that I'm not related to.
Darvie and her husband Kevin ended up having a gorgeous wedding. She and I kept in touch through facebook. This past spring, Darvie decided she wanted to sell Shure Pet products. She wanted atypical business cards. She sent me these images for inspiration.


She also added she wanted something fun and whimsical. After a few short rounds of revision, this is what I came up with. Darvie had them printed through a local printer.
