Shirley was amazing! Her creative ideas with our invitation were so awesome. The level of service was excellent and the quality of the paper was beautiful. They came out great and we are so excited to send them out. I will come back for all of my invitations and paper needs. Lydia

My wife and I decided to renew our vows after 40 blessed years of marriage which we wanted to celebrate by re-creating the wedding ceremony and celebration which we wanted to have (but didn’t) in 1983. Shirley’s invitations set the tone for what was one of the most enjoyable, memorable and meaningful days of our lives!! The quality of the invitations were outstanding. Shirley’s guidance throughout was empathetic and spot in in terms of how we wanted to capture the mood and theme of the event which set the tone for the entire celebration. We would happily endorse both the quality of the product and (perhaps most importantly) the responsiveness and outstanding levels of customer service.

Our experience with CREATE-A-DESIGN was nothing short of spectacular.
Our experience with CREATE-A-DESIGN was nothing short of spectacular. They transformed our ideas into stunning Save the Dates that received a cascade of compliments. From understanding our design concept to delivering the exquisite final product, all within a mere month, their expertise and efficiency were evident. Working with their team was a breeze, ensuring a process that was as seamless as it was enjoyable. Heartfelt thanks to CREATE-A-DESIGN for crafting not just save the dates, but making an incredible first impression for our special day.

Shirley designed the most stunning invitations
Shirley designed the most stunning invitations for my daughter’s bat mitzvah. She broke down the process into simple steps, and before I knew it, we had a gorgeous design with the perfect wording. The invitations are now one of my favorite things about our event, and we have received so many compliments. Clone Copies cannot be beat in terms of professionalism, attention to detail, and quality! A million thanks!

Shirley is an absolute gem in the invitation business
Shirley is an absolute gem in the invitation business, especially now that everything is becoming digitized and cookie cutter. She personally helped design a phenomenal wedding invitation for us. She went above and beyond to make it look more spectacular than we could’ve envisioned. She was available to us day and night and always had a prompt response to any of our questions or needs. She also stayed in our budget. She’s been in the business for years and she is definitely the person you want to use for your next invitation!

The programs turned out beautifullyI
I had worked with Shirley Abelsohn and Clone printing years ago when my daughters had their Bat Mitvot. When my youngest was getting married recently, and we wanted a program that was printed in both English and Spanish, I found Shirley again, this time in Sorrento Valley and with Create-a-Design. I was so relieved as I feared she had retired! She came through for me, helping me with a few revisions, making sure every detail, including ones I'd missed, were perfect. The programs turned out beautifully and my daughter was so thrilled with them. She also came through with paper fans at the 11th hour. Thank you, Shirley!

When the actual formal invitation arrived, all I could say is WOW
We first met Shirley and Rufus of Create A Design at the Besa Expo in San Diego. We were impressed by the creativity of B’nei Mitzvah invitation designs and the attention to every subtle detail. The icing on the cake was how kind and caring Shirley and Rufus are. Shirley guided us through the process of picking a design, wording, and all of the little details we would have never thought about without her. She was so patient with my edits along the way and was only concerned with my happiness. We had a color issue with the first batch of save the date cards and Shirley didn't hesitate for one second to get it perfect for us and fix it right away! When the actual formal invitation arrived, all I could say was WOW! They could not have been more perfect! It was exactly what my son (and my husband and I) wanted to set the tone for the entire event. I am very particular and I can give my whole-hearted recommendation to Shirley and Rufus and Create A Design for any invitations and printing that you need to absolutely set the perfect feel for your event! Can’t wait to start working on our next invitation with them!

They did a beautiful job
They did a beautiful job helping us with our unique wedding invitations which included dried flowers from bouquets that my fiance had given me and from our yard. They provided great advice and included some extra design work that added a lot. They were reasonable, despite a rushed job for us

Oh My God!
Shirley, is there any other name for the designer of magnificent wedding invitations and beautiful and creative stationery? Shirley created the most fabulous and classy wedding invitations, info inserts, and thank you notes that our friends and family cannot stop raving about! And our information card for the out of town guest gift boxes(that's where the "Oh My God" comes in) is truly a work of art and creativity. 

Thank You!
The invitations went out 10 days ago every day since then we get phone calls telling us how wonderful they are! We are thrilled with how they came out and appreciate the care you took to make sure they were exactly right! Thank you for getting us started so beautifully!
