I met Kelsy online from winning one of her template sets through a giveaway, and am thrilled that I found her store!She agreed to become our first Featured Vendor, and we are excited to be launching a new series of posts about our vendors. After meeting her on Facebook, we found out we have mutual friends that she went to school with...it IS a small world after all!


A little about Izzy Couture Designs...words from Kelsy...

"Izzy Couture Designs got its start in May 2011; I was 21 years old &
had just graduated from Calhoun Community College with an Associate’s
Degree in Computer Graphics/Electronic Imaging & a Minor in
Photography. I have owned a photography business for 2 years, going on 3
years. As a photographer I found that I was using a lot of templates to offer
as products to my clients. One day I sat down to edit photos from that day’s
session & I realized I wanted something different, I was tired of using the
same old templates over & over, then I said to myself, “Kelsy, You are a
Graphic Designer, why keep using templates designed by another graphic
designer when you can design your own!” So that’s exactly what I did, I sat
down & designed some templates for my clients & they were a huge
success!




I had no name for my business. I knew I wanted it to be something different & fun,
even spunky. So after a LONG day at work I came in & played with my
puppy, Izzy, a 1 year old poodle/Scottish terrier mix that’s ball of fur &
energy! That was it, who said you couldn’t name a business after your
dog?!? Once I played around with several name options a friend of mine
suggested I use the word “couture” in my business name, & there you have
it: Izzy Couture Designs was born."


-What products do they offer?
  • Graphic Design Services-Custom Logos, Watermarks, Business
  • Cards, T-shirts, Flyers, Brochures, Forms, Charts, CD Labels

Kelsy is giving one of my readers a FREE template set from her black and white collection! I have this set, and loved using it to show a sample of the photographs from a recent wedding I shot.
They are easy to use and make presentation a breeze!
