Inspired by my new Kate Panel, I realized I could scale it down to three panels instead of five and make it a little more budget friendly.When Pam came to me, I had two challenges – make an invitation in her budget, and make something different than a panel because I had just finished her […]
Alison had visions of old New Orleans’s gates and asked if I could possibly translate that to the invitation. I said – sure! I took a fairly “heavy” fleur-de-lys graphic and made it very delicate and “aged” it for the invitations. Using this very slanted handwriting font really continued the antiqued look I was going […]
I’ve been talking to Anastasia and her mother for nearly a year. The overall style of the invitation has stayed the same but the colors and design have changed many times. This panel is probably the most decked out one I’ve done to date. Three layers, inner and outer envelopes, three inserts with ribbon tie […]
Read that with disbelief.;) Things are done a little different in Canada I’ve decided. Melissa needs to send these four months early! She was my first bride to do hotel information on the RSVP which I’ve been dying to do. I love her three layered panels with a pocket on the back to hold of […]
Kate came to me with the crazy new design she had seen on Wedding Bee. But the photos she had were very different than the ultimate design. The invitation was five 5×7 panels – instead of small inserts. I simply fell in love with the idea and started coming up with ideas to make it […]
If you are looking for something totally different, this invitation may be it. I was inspired by an older issue of Martha Stewart Weddings where they featured a long accordian, fold out program. I saw it and thought “I could make that into an invitation”. When Lindsay came to me with a smaller budget, I […]
Or “This Ain’t your Grandma’s Damask”, I couldn’t decide on the appropriate title. These invitations are probably the craziest I’ve ever done. Jennifer was in love with the damask print and wanted it EVERYWHERE. So the print completely covers the invitation, RSVP postcard and the reception card. The color combination is stunning and is set […]
Katie’s theme is French Country. We went around and around with ideas because there were really a lot of possibilities. But we settled on this formal, plume, graphic in a beautiful French Blue. For years, I’ve wanted to do an RSVP card with répondez s’il vous plaît instead of Response. But no one’s them ever […]
Ironically, I had not done this 5×7 custom gatefold until this year and Suzanne and Teresa’s that I posted last week, came one night apart for their consults! But you can see that the two are totally different. Suzanne’s used one of my favorite colors – the mocha latte, with a pretty pearl pink. Her […]
I do a few a year and I love Jennifer’s. I worked with her future mother-in-law on this order and we made them similar colors and a swirly pattern to match her invitations. The ribbed metallic envelopes will be such a surprise to their guests.
