Reviews for Stinkerpants Designs
My husband spotted Sara's designs on WeddingBee early on in our planning process and we immediately decided to organise our save the dates with Stinkerpants. The only hard part was deciding what we wanted on the card but once we had an idea we discussed it over email with Sara and she immediately got it. The final save the date was even more incredible than we were expecting with the level of detail she added.
For example, on one side we had wanted a picture of a sea plane over the Sydney harbour (where we got engaged) and Sarah drew the plane perfectly from the pic we provided. As a bonus, she drew us inside the plane with my husband down on one knee proposing. It was fun and original and I think helped to start a bit of buzz about the wedding. The feedback we got from a lot of our friends was fantastic.
My husband and I would both highly recommend Sara. I only wish we had another excuse to use her now!
Sara was amazing to work with. I am an invitation designer but as soon as I saw her designs I knew that I wanted her to do our save the dates! Her designs are fresh, colorful and unique. Truly worth every dollar spent. The printing quality is amazing and the cards are great quality.
She responds quick to all questions, Keeps you updated on progress and makes sure that your happy with the final product!
We got everything we wanted in one Save the date, our beautiful location backdrop, Giants, Niners and our Puppy! She even incorporated our favorite number as the hole flag! It is so adorable and I can't wait to send them out!
Thanks, Sara!!
Sadly, Sara was not around when I was getting married. But the good news is that she's around to design my baby shower invites! When I found her work, I fell in love and was so sad that I was already married. But once I found out I was pregnant - she was the gal I called up to do my baby shower invites. Sara was so understanding when I even had to change my invite "theme". She gave me some suggestions and ideas and made it work.
WOW, what to say about Sara from Stinkerpants Designs. She is amazing. When I was a newbie on the knot I saw some TY Cards she had done for purplewedding. I was super impressed and contacted her about my STD's. I was hoping to coax her into designing them for me...my evil plan worked. She was just getting her business off the ground and I was client #2.
I wanted something unique and representative of me and the mr. Boy, did she pull it off. We hashed out a few ideas and then a few days later she sent me the first proof and I actually cried because it was so good. It will be something that I always treasure.
Since then Sara and I have become great friends. We share a wedding date so have been planning together. Im sure I will be hiring Sara for other projects in the future....or, maybe i'll just have to make up some stuff just as an excuse to have her draw something for me
Working with Sara was a true pleasure. My Save-The-Dates, Invitations and Thank You cards were all a hit. I continue to receive compliments about them and the entire theme (I purchased the wedding theme and used it on other items). Sara was very patient with me as I took time trying to figure out what I actually wanted from her. I would definitely recommend her to others and hope to work with her again in the future.
Sara is soooooooo great! I didn't technically use Sara for my wedding stationary (had I known of her mad skillz ahead of time, I certainly would have), but she did create custom Christmas cards for my Husband and I, in our wedding clothing. Wearing Santa hats. And she captured our look adorably.
Sara was lightening quick responding to all emails. She was friendly, inventive, and and an overall joy to work with. Could not be possibly be happier with the end result. Quality is beautiful and so unique. I hope to use Sara for ALL future stationary needs. Thank you, Sara! :)
Sara Olsher makes one-of-a-kind, awesome designs that you can use for Save the Dates, Invitations, Monograms, Thank You Cards, or any other paper-related project. She made me an outstanding design for my Thank You cards, and I'm thrilled with it. I asked her to draw a bride and groom (to look like us, of course) on Baker Beach, exactly where we had our engagement photos taken. She did it even better than I imagined, and asked me questions along the way to make sure I would get the design I was looking for. I recommend her VERY highly. If you want to ask me more, page me on the NorCal board of the The Knot under the same username.
I first discovered Sara's talents at her own wedding last year, and ... let's just put it this way, I was floored. I was beginning to plan my upcoming wedding in Copenhagen, Denmark, and once I witnessed Sara's creation I knew I had found our designer! Our first challenge was to notify our guests of our upcoming nuptials - well in advance, so that they could make their travel plans accordingly. Sara created a STD card to acommodate both of our Danish and English-speaking guests, as well as a STD magnet to accompany. Many of our guests, (on both sides of the Atlantic), commented on how they loved the design -- and she was an international hit! Shortly afterwards, we contacted her to design our official invitation, Rehearsal Dinner and RSVP cards. Again, the challenge of designing for a bilingual guest list posed a problem, but Sara proposed a beautiful design of the church we were to be married in which would unite all guests: English on one side, Danish on the other. The design was simple, fresh, creative and ... very much "us"! Sara is a joy to work with, and I highly recommend her to any future bride!
If you are looking for something fun, different & to get your guest excited, Sara is your lady! Sara did my Save the Dates as well. Thankfully to Sara's crafty skills, she came up with a design that I could have NEVER dreamed of! It represented out engagement night in Disneyland as well as planning our wedding in SF (we live in LA) They came out BETTER than I could have ever thought possible. She made the whole process so easy and fun. She is not afraid to give you recommendations, which I love, since I would have never thought to include our engagement in our Save the Dates. I have already recommended her to friends and family for various projects. I give her 100 plus stars! I can't say enough nice things about her and her professionalism!
I wish I could change up the number of stars on this Stinkerpants review, just to be different from all of the 5 star reviews, but I just can't. Sara is AMAZING to work with!! My fiance and I hired her to make our save the dates (she will also be doing our invites in a few months), and she was so easy to work with, so prompt in her responses to our email communications, and really understood what we were trying to do and pulled it off flawlessly. We had minor changes to our drawing (we never discussed clothing, and she drew us in Gap attire so we wouldn't be naked, which got a good laugh out of my fiance).
I also new exactly when our guests received our STDs since I was bombarded with emails and phone calls on how cute/original/awesome they were. One of my friends hung it on her refrigerator because it "makes her smile", and another friend is considering hiring Sara to do a family portrait of her, her boyfriend, and their dog.
In the stressful mess that is wedding planning, it's refreshing to know that your invites/save the dates/thank you cards/whatever else you may need will be taken care of without needing to stress over it or interfere with the process. I wish all wedding vendors were as pleasurable to work with.
I first discovered Stinkerpants Designs at a Wedding Details event held in San Francisco. My amazing wedding florist Karen of Huckleberry Designs invited me, and I figured, oh why not check it out. It was a small event,but enjoyable nevertheless especially when I came across Sara and her fun, animated, and whimsical designs! It took me all but two seconds to decide that I wanted to use her to make our Wedding Thank you cards! IF I hadn't already sent out Save the Dates, I probably would have requested that she do those also! Her designs are soo fun, unique, and personal to her clients. For our thank you cards, Sara drew a picture of me and my husband in front of Old St. Hilary's church (him in his tux, and me in my wedding dress) in Tiburon which is where our ceremony was. We were sooo pleased with how it turned out. If you want something a little different, fun, cute-sy, and personal to you for your greeting cards, thank you cards, save the dates, invites, etc.- i totally recommend going with Stinkerpants designs!!!
Sara also made my Save the Dates and they are exactly what I wanted!! Sara is amazing- so creative and talented. She was incredibly patient with me when we were going back and forth via email during the design process. We are getting married at a winery so she drew us with a vineyard in the background. It's perfect! My fiance and I are so happy with how these turned out that we wish these were our actual invitations!! I can't recommend her enough.
Words can't describe my initial reaction after seeing my Save-The-Date card that Stinkerpants Designs created for me. It was fun, original, and exactly what I was looking for!
Sara (aka Stinkerpants) was professional, always available, and open to any suggestions of change. Her artistic interpretation of my proposal in Italy captured the moment I wanted to share with family and friends and, for that, I couldn't be more grateful.
Five stars, two thumbs up, and a world of thanks!
I LOVED working with Sara. To be honest I saw her work long before I was engaged and knew I wanted her to create my save the dates. So before we even booked our venue or picked our date I contacted Sara and asked her to design our save the dates, I asked her to draw a scene from our engagement. She started with a rough sketch and we worked from there together. She listened and added all the details I asked for, and gave me input on things I wasn't sure of. The final product was amazing... everyone has been telling me how much they love them and how cute they are.
She also has greeting cards; I bought one to ask one of my friends to be a bridesmaid... on the outside it has a bride lifting up her wedding dress a bit with her legs turned inward and said... I heard someone has to hold up my dress when I go pee... will you be my bridesmaid? How cute is that?! My friend loved the card!
Sara designed the cutest save the dates and thank you cards for us. All of our friends and family are still raving about them! They added such a special, personalized touch to our wedding. Sara was wonderful to work with- very quick and accommodating. She was totally patient with me when I changed my mind a million times and was great about offering suggestions. She is very responsive and professional. Best of all, she was willing to work within my budget. We were really pleased with her work and plan to use her again for baby and holiday stationary.
If you want something originial - Stinkerpants is the place to go. Her stationery designs are cute, fun and memorable. Once your guests receive something from Stinkerpants, they will be talking about it for years!
