I have loved discovering Mother's Day cards I designed for Hallmark out in stores! Here are a few of my favorites, this will be the first year I can buy my mom a card I worked on. Take a look at my updated portfolio for more. Enjoy!
Hallmark CLS Speaker: Gemma O'Brien
Today I received my invitation to Hallmark's Creative Leadership Symposium and I was especially excited to see that Gemma O'Brien (@mrseaves101 on Instagram) will be speaking! I have followed Gemma for a long time and her work is stunning. The whole lineup has not been announced yet, but based off of the few names we did learn I know it will be an amazing day.
The theme for this year's event is "Explore What Else?" and I think each of the speakers will address this in their talk — I can't wait to report back after the actual event! For now, enjoy some of Gemma's beautiful work:
Birthday Cards for Hallmark
Hello, friends! I'm pretty excited that these four birthday cards I designed for Hallmark last summer are now arriving in stores. Any project focused on lettering, sparkle, and pink is hard to top. I also had a few sweet co-workers who gave me some of these cards for my birthday a few weeks ago. I still love seeing my card designs come to life. Enjoy!
Modern Calligraphy Summit 2.0 Teachers
There are just a few days left of the Modern Calligraphy Summit 2.0 and I have loved watching all the videos that have gone live so far. I'm grateful I can go back and watch these at anytime — thought I have kept up with viewing the lessons I haven't yet had time to complete all the exercises myself. Below you will find links to each of the teachers' websites and Instagram accounts (click on their name for Instagram / photo for their website). I have been very inspired by the variety of styles and vast knowledge these ladies have shared, enjoy browsing through their work!

Valentine’s Cards for Hallmark
I have LOVED seeing all the Valentine's Day cards I designed last year on shelves! Here are a few of my favorites, to take a peek at them all head over to my portfolio. You can find them in person at Hallmark Gold Crown Stores, Walmart, CVS and Walgreens just to name a few. While I am no longer on the Valentine's Day team at work, I hope that someday I will have another chance to design for this holiday, it truly is one of my favorites. Enjoy!
Merry? Very! Socks for Hallmark
With Christmas just a few days away I was thrilled to finally discover these socks I designed at the Hallmark store! For those who know me well, I often wear silly socks and when I was working on this project I couldn't wait to see them in real life. Hopefully you are enjoying the last few busy days before December 25th!
