The invitation that started it all

Here is the invitation that started it all for Little Bee Custom Designs. I was a bride back in 2002 and was disappointed in the lack of personalization and originality of invitations available to me, so I decided to create my own! The pocket-fold was a custom design that I cut by hand. I did not use an envelope and mailed the invitation as you see it. They came through the mail beautifully!

Originality is the center of Little Bee Custom Design's vision. We strive to make invitations uniquely "Yours" and give your guests something to talk about.

I look forward to meeting with you to discuss your invitation needs and see what we can create uniquely for you!

Baby Samantha's Baptism

This is a great example of my design process. I started out with Sammy's Mommy contacting me about making some "Bling-Bling, Girly-Girl Baptism Invitations". She wanted the "Wow" factor. Did we hit it?



I started by designing a computerized preliminary design. From there, we tweaked and revised, then we discussed actual paper samples, ribbon, swarvoski crystal colors, etc. We decided to put the invitation in a gift box to add some more specialness to the invitation. The boxes were hand-painted to color match the paper inside the invitation!

The box will be wrapped in kraft mailing paper and topped with a custom printed label.

As always, click on the photo to see a full-sized version!

Congratulation Sammy!

It's Graduation Time!

I created this layered graduation party invitation to look just like a diploma! I used the graduate's school colors and a fun, shiny patent-leather look paper to make a mini diploma. This can be customized with your school colors and even your school crest!
