Special Thanks

2009-06-04T19:25:00.000-07:00

I would like to express my thanks and deep gratitude to a few people who have influenced me throughout my life. I am so grateful to my parents. I wouldn't be the person I am today without them. They have always supported everything I do, and taught me how to work hard. I would also like to thank my older sister Kami. Without her encouragement, this business never would have happened. She's the one I go to for advice and ideas for designs. Next, I would like the express my gratitude to my wonderful husband, Garrett. He is the one who pushes me to be better and to follow my dreams. I am also very thankful to the rest of my family and friends. I am very blessed to have such wonderful people in my life. I couldn't have done this without you guys!! I love you!

About Me

2009-06-04T18:07:00.000-07:00

Hi! My name is Makell Southworth. I'm a 22 year old graphic designer based in Davis County, Utah. I started designing in January of 2009 with my own wedding invitation, and have been obsessed with designing ever since. I love creating modern, unique announcements to be used for any occasion. Each design is custom made to your pictures, and I pride myself on the little details to make each design uniquely yours. I am a total perfectionist, so you can rest assured that your design will be flawless.

I am lucky to be the wife of a wonderful husband who not only puts up with my addiction to designing, but encourages me. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope we'll be able to work together soon.
