Incredible

Susan is incredible. Not only are our invitations perfect but the process was so easy. Susan was responsive, made numerous changes and design modifications until I was sure they were exactly what I wanted. She keeps you up to date, lets you know of ways to save money and where to spend the money, ships samples & everything is done quickly. I could write a novel on how pleased I am with every aspect of this company from the process to the product, flawless.

Excellent!!!

We met with Susan and she showed us all of her beautiful invitation design options. She also was willing to custom design an invitation for our wedding event as well. She took all of the needed information for our event and sent us proofs when they were ready. We even commented on the color and she was quick to work with us and fix the color to match more specifically what we had in mind! We had a great experience!! The invitations were ready within the timeline we originally discussed and exceeded our expectations!

Loved my invitations

Susan designed our gatbsy themed invitations and response cards. We were running behind, but Susan was able to meet our tight deadline. She was very accommodating and included us in every step of the design process. She was always professional and gracious. If you are looking for someone who will put that personal touch on your invitations, I recommend her. I'm very pleased with the finished product I received.

I can't say enough about this company! Susan was extremely professional and attentive. We shopped for many invitations with other companies but Susan from the beginning was so impressive. Our invitations were flawless. Not only was the finished product impeccable, but Susan would follow up personally during each stage of design and execution. I have already referred a good friend to her and her experience was the same. The whole process was zero stress in what is a stressful event. I would recommend her to anyone without reservation. We are soooo pleased!

Working with Susan and DesignLeaf Studio was a fantastic experience! Susan was expertly communicative and knowledgable about everything from fonts and paper quality, to general questions about information to include within the invite. We had a very unique idea of what we envisioned, and Susan went above and beyond to ensure that we used all the right materials to customize the invites for our big day. We would recommend Susan and DesignLeaf Studio to anyone looking for beautiful invitations for a special occasion!

My fiance & I spent hours scouring the internet for a save the date design that we felt reflected who we are as a couple. We didn't know what we were looking for until we found a stunning design that caught both our eyes. The image led us to DesignLeaf Studios & Susan Malikowski. From our first exchange to the day Susan handed us our finished save the dates, Susan was an absolute joy to work with. She clearly feels passionately about her art & cares deeply about providing her clients with a finished product that accurately portrays their vision. At our first meeting when we talked about concepts, she listened to our thoughts & ideas, offered her suggestions & asked questions about our event & our relationship. She wanted to know about us so that we would be reflected in her work. She immediately made us feel at ease, like we were talking to an old friend. I was concerned about pricing for custom work (including hand-painted watercolor work), but her pricing is very reasonable. There was a lot of back & forth as we rethought ideas & made adjustments. She was very patient & responded to each email promptly & thoroughly. The finished products just arrived & they are stunning. We can't wait to get them in the mail to our guests! We will certainly be ordering more pieces from her for our wedding as we continue the planning process. If you are looking for a dedicated, kind, creative, artist to create your stationary, look no further than Susan. You won't find anyone better.

This is the second time I have used Designleaf studio and again I am more than pleased over the results. Our friend was moving to China and could not take any large gifts with her. We contacted Sue from DesignLeaf studio since we wanted to do something with photos. Sue came up with the great idea of a personalized photo collage CD. She designed a beautiful CD cover that showed the friendship in our group.
We were all very happy with the result and our gift was very appreciated at the farewell party.

Again it was a pleasure to work with Sue as she always taking great care in her work.
I can highly recommend DesignLeaf studio

"A huge thank you to DesignLeaf Studio for creating the perfect design for my wedding!! The wedding stationary was beautifully done and it was such a pleasure working with Susan. She made my job a breeze and worry free! She designed my invitations, thank you cards, and even an elegant logo we used throughout our wedding. It really gave us that personal touch I was looking for! It was a day my husband and I will remember forever!!" —Erin Skog

Susan was creative and responsive! She made the process easy, and worked within the constraints of my schedule and budget. Her knowledge of the invitation types, style, color, options, etc. made it easy to decide what to do. She provided renderings that helped me visualize what the final invitation would look like and sent me color samples, and even envelopes so that we could practice handwriting the addresses! Susan's customer service, expertise, and responsiveness cannot be beat!
