Happy Holidays from CurlyRed!

Thank you so much for another great year. May your holidays be very joyous, safe and a time to spend with those you love.

And as our special gift to you, here is the birth announcement we designed for our daughter Margot! Enjoy! We will be back in full force in the new year, ready to create!

You're invited!

2010 marks 3 years that CurlyRed has been in business and that's worth celebrating! We would like to thank you for all the support, love and business you've provided for us so please come join us at Cibo Bar and Grille on Monday, February 1st from 5:30-8:30 pm. The address is 100 Painters Mill Rd., Owings Mills, Maryland 21117.

Those of you that joined us last year at Mt. Washington Tavern can testify that it was a great time, this year should be even better!

This event is free and open to all clients, family and friends of CurlyRed. There will be drink specials and a full menu of delicious bar food available for purchase (Cibo has great pizza, wings and calamari!).

This will also be a great networking opportunity, so please RSVP by e-mailing kendall@curlyred.com and get this event on your calender early!

snowjumpstump.com has launched!

If you've been wondering where we've been, our family welcomed a little baby girl named Margot on November 1st. But I have some more exciting news:
My husband, Mark Ludwig, just launched his new portfolio site, www.snowjumpstump.com. He is looking for new job opportunities, particularly in the gaming or user-interface arenas.
Please take a look and feel free to contact him at markeludwig@gmail.com with any comments or questions.

Stay tuned...we will be updating this blog with more excited CurlyRed news...our 3 year anniversary is right around the corner!

thanks everyone, have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

curlyred.com has been updated!

I'd like to apologize in the huge lack of updates recently...as many of you know, I am expecting my first child any day now, and have been frantically tying up loose ends in preparation.

CurlyRed has finished up some really awesome projects recently, so we wanted to update our portfolio to show you what we've been up to!


Check it out: two new postcards, a new newsletter and two new logos have been added. Also, we hope to be launching two new websites in the next few weeks. Once they are live, we will be adding those to our website section.

As always, we love to hear your feedback.

Beautiful photography blog—It's All Been Easy

My friend, Dominic Albanese has created an amazing blog documenting adventures he has taken over the past few years. And as much as I like reading about his travels, I'm even more inspired by the beautiful photography he's taken along the way. Take a look and you'll see what I mean.

Keep up the great work, Dom!

Baby (announcements) on the brain

So while looking for inspiration for our own upcoming baby announcement, we came across some really unique, interesting and beautiful designs, so we figured we'd share!

Clockwise from top left: Vintage Frame from Tiny Prints, Animal Crackers from Tiny Prints, Pink Glamour Baby Crib from Polka Dot Design, Rhino and Birds by Inventing Matilda from Brick House Paperie, Calendar Baby from Lemon Tree Paperie, DIY announcement by Stacy Southwick (featured in Parents Magazine), and Stella by Tosh and Victoria Brown, printed by The Mandate Press

Enjoy—we can't wait to design our own!

Just a reminder....

If you have a design project you'd like completed before Kendall, CurlyRed's owner, goes on maternity leave, please contact us by September 15th, 2009 (less than a month away, can you believe it?). Kendall will be returning around January 4th, 2010.

And if you refer a friend to CurlyRed before this time, you will receive 20% off your first project in 2010!
