Thanks to Minted for the special prize in the Fall in Love Wedding Challenge! I took home the Whimsical Award for the best whimsical or humorous design for "Gettin' Hitched". I also had 2 other runners up. :) You can see the entire suite below, available in 3 colorways. You can purchase the invitation or matching accessories at minted.com. Check out the rest of the special prize winners right here.
I received some good news recently. Two of my winning save the date card designs for Minted received additional special prize awards! I'm so stoked since I'm always a runner-up and never a winner for these special prize categories. Thanks again to friends and fans who voted for my designs during the challenge. :)
"Sweet Embrace" is now exclusively available for sale at minted.com. My "Destination New York" save the date card should be available soon, hopefully within the next month. Check out the rest of the awesome winners on Minted's blog, Julep.
Some good news this week! I had 2 winners (6th and 12th place!) and 4 editor's picks in Minted's Outside the Box Holiday Gift Wrap challenge. Minted will be launching it's inaugural collection of unique, personalizable gift wrap for the upcoming 2013 holiday shopping season and I'm so pleased to be included! My 6th place design scored a rating of 4.0267, which is a personal best for me. Hooray! I'm also celebrating another little milestone with this challenge – I have finally reached a total of 55 Minted awards. I've been trying to crack 50 for awhile now, so these gift wrap wins were extra rewarding. :) See the rest of the winners from the gift wrap challenge here. Some great stuff in there. I personally can't wait to buy some wrapping paper!
