Out with the old, In with the new





Cracked Designs has been growing rapidly throughout the 3+ years we've been goin' at it. So we figured it was high time to re-do our logo and overall brand. We've been working hard to create some new branding, and here's a glimpse of what we're thinking about...

Brainstorm




I've been a fan of the company 'Brainstorm' for a while now, and I recently fell in love with one their new prints. ( see 'Earth' above) Visit their shop here!

Beckett's Baby Stationery

Beckett's baptism invitation, which features a cool teal backing and fits into a dark brown envelope.

A cool map that was included with each baptism invitation

Beckett's birth announcement, which was tri-folded (to reveal a polka dot backing) and fit neatly into a matching envelope.

My baby shower invitation

I've been loving being able to design stationery for all the events so far in Beckett's life. Since I'm not a big cutsie baby animals person, it's been great creating the perfect blend of modern, yet baby friendly designs. Thought I would share my baby shower invitation, Beckett's birth announcement, and his baptism invitation.

Renegade Chicago


Holy frack do I love the Renegade Craft Fair in Chicago! I've been apart of it for the past 2 years, but since this is the 'year of the baby', I unfortunately won't be able to participate this year. I'm starting to get really sad about it since every year so many awesome vendors come out of the woodwork, and I love seeing all the cool stuff. It looks like it will be another great year, with some of my favorites like, Gnome Enterprises, Dude and Chick, and La Familia Green to just name a few. I hope to be back out on the craft fair scene next year!

For the cool babies


I just found this cool shop on Etsy, Apericots, that has tons of totally awesome baby onesies. Now that I'm in full mom swing, I love dressing Beckett in cool onesies versus the boring everyday Carter's onesies.
