New Font

I love it when brides tweak a design and change things up a bit.  Gives me the time and excuse to play.

It turned out to be a mixture of the Anne and the Emily. 

Emily Font

Instead of slanting the larger names to the side - we kept them centered on the envelope.

 The names are done with a larger quill and the address and zip code are centered on the envelopes.

I love the way it has come out - I'm calling it "Kensie"

Have an idea for your envelopes?  Give me a call - let's create something new!

Hand Made Place Cards

LOVE these!!!!

The Mother of the Bride has been working on these for a while.  She contacted be several months ago, sent me a sample place card, along with a knob so we could make sure that my ink wouldn't bleed and I would have enough room to write with the knobs in place.

I love it when people are willing to think outside the "norm."  She cut each of these place cards - including the pattern in the top and then soaked them in both coffee and tea.  It created an awesome antique look - not to mention, it made the best smelling paper I have ever worked with!  Each place card is held up with a classic looking drawer pull or knob.

It's been so much fun working on this wedding.  She quickly became known as my "Knob lady."  

Congratulations Taylor & Nick!  I hope your day is awesome!!!!

Off the Page..... Again!

Okay - Simply THRILLED about this!  I am now offering decals!

Have a scripture verse or a quote that you would like blown up on on your wall?  Have a word or a name for a room?

I can help design it for you - in my Calligraphy - and we can have it made into a decal.  As large as you would like.  How exciting is that?

I LOVE it!

Since the beginning of our relationship, my husband and I have claimed this verse.  It's even engraved in his wedding band.  When we moved into our house seven years ago, I knew I wanted it to go on this wall above my kitchen sink.  I wanted it in my calligraphy - but didn't want to try to write  directly on the wall because of the size.  This was the PERFECT solution!  I am so happy with it.

It was so easy to do - so I am now offering it to my customers. 

So, if you would like to create something special, contact me and we can work on it!  Let's take it off the page......

Calligraphy by Cami is going in a new direction!  I am sooooo excited about this! 

No longer is my work confined to paper.  Gone are the days of fitting everything into an 8 x 10 or a 11 x 14 that is suitable for framing.  Want to go larger?  Want to cover a huge space on your wall?  Want to customize something with my calligraphy?  Want me to write on an object that may be difficult to make permanent?

Decals are the answer!

I was contacted by a bride this past fall who wanted me to write on a white mailbox for the guests to put their cards in at the reception.  We wanted to make it permanent so it could actually be used in the future so I contacted my friend Lauren at Ten23 Designs and discovered that she can take my work and blow it up - make it smaller - whatever is needed.  How exciting is this???

The possibilities are endless!  

Have a special scripture or quote you want for that empty wall????  I do!  I have had a wall in my kitchen and I've known exactly what I wanted on it - but I didn't want to paint the Calligraphy myself.  I'm having it done in a decal - can't wait for it to come in!

Need a custom Rubber Stamp?  Had an inquiry for that yesterday.

I'm so so excited about all of this - it opens up so many opportunities.

Got an idea?  Let's take it off the page......

New "Allison" Font

Love it when my brides challenge me with a new font.  We fancied up the "Anne" font and came up with this - a totally new look!
