In 2017, after more than a decade in retail, I decided to slow things down a bit, so what once was a retail boutique became a home-based invitation and design studio. In 2020, partially due to my growing desire to start something new, and partially due to circumstances outside of my control, I decided it was time to make a big change. I took a marketing position with a local brewery and turned The Envelope into my side-gig.
While certain aspects of The Envelope are not what they once were, I still carry several beautiful invitation and stationery lines and offer graphic design services, even if things work a little differently these days. Please contact me to discuss projects and ideas, or browse my online shop. I look forward to working with you to create something unique and beautiful.

This is one of my favorites of all time.
There is something about gold foil seashells paired with sandy beaches and a lovely sentiment that makes this holiday photo card nothing short of perfect.
Kelsey chose one of the contemporary designs from Designer's Fine Press for her wedding invitation ensemble and we ran with it for some in-house accessories, including her programs, menus, and "newlywed advice cards".
Becky planned a gorgeous, black tie optional wedding at the Dayton Art Institute and this traditional letterpress invitation in black and ivory was absolutely perfect for the occasion.

On behalf of {our entire} family, thank you for all you have done to make this wedding weekend so special for us.
Your creativity and ideas helped pull everything together as you worked with Ari and Josh's vision.
We couldn't be more pleased- or wow-ed.
Each piece you've created or ordered has an elegance and look that we all just love.
When you recommend a vendor, especially to those whom are out of town, you have to have a tremendous amount of trust and faith that that vendor will come through and be everything that you've promised he/she to be.

For all of you out there who like to ask questions, here are some answers (they may not be the "right" answers, i.e. if you ask me how to make good guacamole, you probably aren't going to find the answer here).
BUT, if your queries are wedding related, or possibly just of the general invitation genre, there is a pretty good chance you may find what you seek.
A: 6-8 weeks in advance, or even earlier if it's a holiday weekend, peak wedding season, or a destination wedding.
A: To keep the process running smoothly and avoid any delays, payment in full is requested before proofing begins.

Sometime in early 2011, my brother gifted me with a Canon Rebel XS.
I had no idea what to do with it, so I just started shooting.
And while many of those early shots are fairly cringe-worthy, I still like to look back through my photo archives and see how I've grown over the years as an artist.
The thing I love most about photography is that it gives me a new perspective-a new way of seeing the world.
My primary focus is composition; I like to find unique ways of seeing things and I love to capture interesting angles, perspectives, movement, textures, words, and emotions.
