Adios Twenty Ten

This year has been yet another amazing year for Cracked Designs! We've had the opportunity to work lots of new brides, as well as lots of new stores all over the country. And of course, in May we welcomed the newest member of CD, Beckett! In a few years, I have no doubt that he will be helpin' us out with new card ideas.

Along with the new year comes NEW cards! Hooray! We just added a couple on our Etsy shop this week, but be prepared for lots more coming soon! Happy 2011, and thanks to everyone who supports CD!

Our X-mas Card




I was super happy with how our Christmas cards came out this year. I found this awesome wood grain paper that I printed them on. I am way into wood grain anything these days!

Retro Whale=Amazing



Holy frack, these might be the most awesome coasters & prints ever! I stumbled across the shop, Retro Whale from LA today, and I instantly fell in love. They have coasters & prints with your favorite movies, bands, writers, directors & just cool illustrations. The illustrations are so witty & perfect. Anyone out there getting me a present? Then shop their Etsy store here.

Ok, we'll go



We just saw Okgo for like the 100th time, and it sure does bring us back, way back, to our early college days in the Windy City. (Yes, we loved them before the treadmills...) I love how innovative they are with their live shows, as well as their videos, duh. I want to live in their paisley filled dream world.

Blue Ribbon



We checked out HoverCraft this past Sunday, and it was awesome! It was so great to see so many cool vendors from Milwaukee. I picked up a bunch of goodies, but my favorite has to be this plush Pabst bottle made by Sarah Jane Harper. Along with this totally rad bottle were Pabst cans, tree branches and logs. I love how the Pabst cans & bottles had perfect imperfections, I wanted to buy them all! Beckett loves hugging his new Pabst bottle, which makes his mom & dad very happy....is that weird? Anyways, Sarah Jane doesn't have an Etsy shop quite yet, but you can check out her blog here.

The Milwaukee Wedding Boutique


All brides out there should check out the new and awesome blog, The Wedding Boutique.
Meghan Magritz (a former bride I worked with) started the blog, which covers multiple cities all over the country and focuses on tips from handpicked wedding vendors in that specific city. We are honored to be apart of the Milwaukee section! Check out the Milwaukee Wedding Boutique here
