Hello There.
Welcome to Falling Up Creative. I'm Colleen, graphic designer and mom of three. I've been working in marketing and design since I graduated from college (longer than I care to admit!). I've had the opportunity to work on so many fun projects - ads and magazines, postcards and presentation, tiny web icons and huge trades how graphics. But my favorite by far has been designing for events and holidays.
I love to create a look and feel for an event; starting with save-the-date or an invitation and ending with decorations and materials needed for the big day itself. Whether it's a wedding, a kid's birthday party, or a big corporate event; the right invitations can start your event off with a bang!
In the past few years, I've left the corporate world to stay home with my kids, but haven't stopped creating. Having three children, plus their friends and other family members, has given me the opportunity to branch out and start designing invitations for kids' parties. While it was always a thrill to design something for a large audience, designing for kids has been even more enjoyable. First of all, you get to be FUN and let your imagination go wild. And of course, a child is going to be so much more enthusiastic expressing their joy over their invitation than a corporate CEO.
Holidays are another love of mine - those that know me know I tend to go overboard for every event - big holidays like Christmas (of course), smaller ones like Valentine's Day, even things like the first and last days of school each year. Luckily, there's another opportunity for design there, so I've been able to combine two of my favorite things.
I'd love to be able to create something special for you. If you see something you like, but it needs some adjustments to fit your needs, or if there is something you're looking for that you can't find, please let me know!
