Tami and Gary

Tami contacted me with a rather difficult challenge: find the perfect striped paper with exactly all of her wedding colors.  After weeks of searching stores and online, I knew that if I was going to give her exactly what she wanted, I would have to make it myself and print the invitation layers together with the stripes. 

She liked the idea of an invite with the only insert being the response card and sent me a couple of ideas.  We came up with a booklet invite with a ribbon closure that is glued down the middle of the inside of the enclosure (under the invitiation layers).  When the booklet is opened, the invitation is on the top and the reception information is on the bottom.  

With all of those colors, this invitation is definitely unique!

Double Whammy!

October was a busy month for me so I have a chance to post about TWO of my projects today.
The first is Beth & Bryan.  They will be getting married on January 2nd in Philadelphia and wanted to incorporate a logo of the LOVE statue in their invites.  Beth brought me the logo already good to go and I did the rest.  Her colors of black, fuschia and white really pop!


Becky & Elliott are getting ready to welcome twin boys into their home, but first they're being thrown a shower!  Becky showed me the theme for their nursery and I decided to use a double layer flat card for their invites.  The base layer contained all of the party information and is a soft yellow while the top layer was a golden green.  I cut a window in the top layer to showcase the party information and along the right and left side were the bee cut outs.  So cute!


We wish Becky & Elliott the best!

One more thing: It's election day, so make sure you go out and Vote!  It's the most important thing you can do!
