Blended & Blessed is an event put on by FamilyLife Blended. The 2026 theme is “Hope for the Journey,” a message for stepfamily couples, couples dating with kids, and anyone in a blended family, that while the road isn’t always easy, there is hope and a way forward. The event is designed to refresh, encourage, and equip couples as they face the unique challenges of blended family life. To capture that theme, I created a light and airy style guide using clouds and shadows as the main imagery, paired with a soft color palette. I carried this look across a variety of print and digital designs for the event, and I will also serve as the event photographer.
