HOLIDAYS 2024
"I Remember When..." is a collection of postcards that I've gathered over the years from various places I've visited with friends.

This project celebrates the imperfect, the spontaneous, and the authentic, all while showcasing the timeless nature of memories that live on in print.

BRIDAL SHOWER INVITE
"A LOVE FOR THE AGES"
One of my best friends is a history teacher and obsessed with everything vintage. We opted for a traditional/elegant design with illustrated line art of wedding dresses from every decade from the 1910s-2020s. I also added a fun timeline detail of the couple's relationship on the back!

"Spread Cheer, Not Covid"

This year, I partnered with the Angel Card Project to provide each recipient with the name and address of someone that wasn't able to spend the holidays with friends/family due to Covid. I included a separate card for each person to write to their pen pal!
