At the start of the new year, I like to do a quick recap of my favorite projects from the past year. 2019 was my busiest yet, so there is a lot to be thankful for and celebrate, starting with my Paperversary clients!

I wanted to start the year off with a fun story from one of my Paperversary clients. As one of the last projects I tackled in 2019, Scott’s email arrived after they had returned from an anniversary trip before Christmas. He started by letting me know how much his wife, Karina, loved her bouquet (always a relief!), and then elaborated on why it was particularly meaningful to them both.

Back in 2017, I was asked to do a pop-up at Madewell in conjunction with their Fall collection launch and a big back-to-school shopping weekend. I was psyched! It’s my favorite time of year for pretty much everything—clothes, weather, and, most of all, colors!

It's been several months since I've released a new collection here, but not without good reason! Summer, while assumed to be an excellent time to slow down and enjoy time in the actual garden, absolutely flew by with custom, commercial, and wedding work. I'm not complaining! But I did feel guilty about the bounty of inspiration growing all around, and the lack of time available for me to translate that inspiration into paper.

Fall is right around the corner, but this wedding bouquet recreation has me looking forward to peony season. Of course, with a magnificent palette like this, I'm pretty sure I could find an excuse to make it work year-round. Thank goodness for paper flowers, right?
