new designers (including me!) at bella figura
I was ecstatic when I opened my email last summer to read an invitation from Bella Figura to become one of their designers! Well, ecstatic and terrified. Fortunately, designing for Bella Figura was a lot of fun, and challenging, too. Each invitation design was carried out into a whole suite of pieces, like table numbers, place cards, programs, coasters, save the dates, etc. I was thrilled to find out this morning that Bella Figura launched the collection, and flattered to see so many familiar names among the new designers. Above is my work, and below some new favorites:
Ribbon by Erin Jang
Hendrix by Jessica Hische
Harper by Ian Koenig
Tara by Ben Whitla
Harlow by Jessica Tierney
…and there are so many more! A big thanks to Bella Figura for inviting me on board! I’m still glowing.
