I am 50% Swedish. Much of my inspiration comes from Scandinavian folk art. I love the lines, the simplicity, and the colors. This is the baby shower invitation I designed for my sister. I used the same invitation for both showers we held for her (way back in 2014!) only making minor changes to the date/time details.
My nephew just turned two. He was born Jan. 1, 2015, which goes to show how neglected this blog page has been.
Anyway, the entire invitation is hand rendered (hand drawn illustrations & hand lettering). I like to scan my hand rendered work into Photoshop/Adobe Illustrator to clean them up and turn them into vector images. That way I can fuss around with arrangement and sizing without worrying about nasty pixels!
