Welcome to my gallery of current projects!
You may be wondering why this gallery is named Muddy Brushes…well let me tell you. A Momental invitation always begins with my original artwork and muddy paintbrushes.
A Muddy Brush is well-used, creatively worn and sopping with hints of vibrant color fresh from the day’s creations. Wet paint on my hands and dripping wet brushes are the signs of good work and great beginnings. For me, the best invitation designs begin with an idea and then a touch of the brush to paper.
So enjoy this gallery as it is updated often and know you are welcome to leave comments on your favorite designs!

I created the petal program with a rhinestone buckle detail – so gorgeous!!

I adore this collection! The table number has a lovely profile (skinny and tall). I added the large rhinestone buckle. Each piece features varying painted details for added interest. I created a petite fan program that is sophisticated and functional.

I am not sure how I would even decide but the buckle version is soooo pretty!


This look is all about texture, organic shapes, vibrant pops of color. The two damask patterns could be re-drawn with slimmer, more graceful, sletchy lines, but I do love the feel in general.

I had a blast with this! A new damask illustration was created then painted in shades of red, gold and creamy ivory. The double layer buckle adds a vintage flair and loads of texture and personality. The folio is a rich chocolate but can be made in custom shades of gold like discussed.

The whole studio is abuzz about this invitation sample. The white peony is heavily painted with gorgeous white ink against a shimmery ecru cardstock!

The simple, sleek color palette balances the slightly fussy artwork perfectly. I used a paper palette of heavily textured white and shimmery black!

The pink and blue combination is so pretty, we added a touch of silver throughout!
