A Father's Favorite Poem

I had a gentleman from Arizona contact me this week.  His father passed away this year and this was his favorite poem.  My client had the idea to have it done in Calligraphy for his family members for Christmas. What a wonderful gift.  I did 3 copies.  I love being a part of family treasures.

Wedding Vows Make a Great Christmas Gift

This new husband contacted me to do their wedding vows as a Christmas gift.  Their wedding colors were ivory and blue.  We did two 5 x 7's (her vows on one and his on the other)  He will find a frame with three openings and put their wedding photo in between them.  What a wonderful Christmas gift!  I just love it when the guys contact me about this kind of sentimental stuff!

Congratulations Jerry & Susan!

Christmas Gifts/French Style Envelopes

It's been a busy night for me tonight.  I've been finishing up a few different projects.  Worked on this Christmas gift - will ship it tomorrow.

12-7-09 Update
The gentleman who wanted this project received it today and this is what he had to say....

"Many people popped up in Google when searching for "calligraphy work" but Cami was the first to provide a interested response.  Others quickly said my 25 plus line project was too long but this did not phase Cami.  Using a computer to size the work, she quickly was able to identify the sizing options and how the text would be structured.  This gave me a very good feeling before she even started the work.  Her turn around was fast and the poem arrived as promised.  If you need calligraphy work done, Cami can provide you a comprehensive, well priced and treasured piece artistic writing."  ~ Dave ~

Thanks for the encouraging words, Dave!  Merry Christmas!

Also coming to the end of this wedding.  Just a few more additional addresses.  I wanted to include these because they are the French Style envelopes.  I don't see them too often and I think they are so neat. 

Once again, I mixed the ink to match the color on the return address.

The colors in my photo are off a bit - but it's a great match!
