One Six's Photo's Business Cards

I do so hope you're enjoying your summer. Thank you for continuing to read, even though I've been so inconsistent with my blogging. July is the month when my husband and I go back to work (just for 4 weeks) to teach at a summer program. I'm currently teaching 7th-9th graders how to start their own businesses. Funny, I know. 

But Vivian Elle stuff still goes on, even when I'm teaching. I just haven't really shown any of it yet. 

Before the fall wedding hoopla is unveiled next week, I wanted to show off some business cards I did a little while ago for the lovely lady I talked about in this post. 

Kelli from One Six Photo came to me earlier this year after we had finished working on her logo months earlier. She wanted a business card and so we came up with one.  

And then Kelli took a couple of super cute and fun photos of them, showcasing how amazing her photography skills are.

This seriously makes me want to get a bubble gum machine, if only to photograph my invitations on. :)

Not only does Kelli have some great photography skillz, it is rare you meet someone as kind and fun and encouraging as she is. If you're in the metro-Detroit area and you need photos taken, check her website out here. She is one talented girl. :)

Kitty Haw Vintage's Calling Cards

My friend, Trish, opened her very own Etsy Shop a few months ago. I was naturally giddy, and just so glad to have a fellow Etsy shop owner that I already knew and loved.

Trish's shop is called Kitty Haw Vintage (named after her great-grandmother) and it is the perfect fit for her. For as long as I can remember, she has always been in love with all things vintage, so to see her take that love and make an Etsy Shop out of it was so cool.

When you visit her shop (which you can do here), you'll see all kinds of different vintage pieces. Dresses, coats, shoes...she even has a 1970's R2 Sweet Tooth Cookie Jar for crying out loud. Her shop is cool, people.

Here are a few of the things you'll see when you visit. Click on any of the links to go straight to the listing.

1970's Rainbow Sundress // A Day in May Dress

Vintage 60's floral and starburst cups

80's Pop Star Black and White Checkered Pumps

Trish seriously has such great style - make sure to visit Kitty Haw to see for yourself (but then come back here so I can show you what she had me do for her shop. :)).

About a month ago, Trish contacted me to help her with her business cards. Only she didn't want business cards at all. She wanted something to match the vintage-ness (not a word, I'm pretty sure) of her shop, so she wanted more of a calling card. Like the cards that people would give each other back in the day that pretty much just said their name. I loved the idea and was super excited Trish came to me to make it happen.

Here are the calling cards that we came up with.

We made the front nice and simple, with just Trish's name.

How much do I love the 'Remember Me' up in the corner? See it there, just nice and subtle?

Since we don't live back in the day when you can just leave your name with someone and they can most likely find you easily, we thought we'd add a back to the cards with Kitty Haw's website address.

The map is something that Trish's boo found for her. It's an old school map of Detroit.

This was truly a unique project and I loved that Trish contacted me to carry out her plan. :)

So seriously, go now to the following and check out Kitty Haw Vintage for yourself:
