All the Raj

leave a comment »

I have long had an obsession with Indian motifs, ranging from the traditional patterns, designs and colors. The colors look so vibrant and rich. Colors like golds, burnt oranges, reds, browns and black accents. If I could I would accent everything with gold! To me, it reminds me of my family’s culture. The way gold looks against tan skin is so exotic that I feel it instantly makes anything or anyone look sexy. Here are some images that have inspired my first ready-made wedding package. Henna.

Not only is henna gorgeous it creates a gorgeous texture that is absolutely tactile. Some of the things I love in fashion and design are color and texture. With this design, I tried to capture both of those characteristics. I am sure this one will expand into many designs!

Here is the first ready-made wedding stationery design.

Mint Etiquetas

with one comment

Everyone who knows me knows that I love my Latin culture. So I always try to incorporate the language in my products. Mint etiquetas are my play on Spanglish. These are called Mint for the color used and Etiquetas are what they are, labels. I hope you love these delicious labels. Use them as gift stickers or to address an envelope. These can be customized for color (no worries, the name won’t change!) and I can also pre-address them for you.

Let me know what you think!
