Vintage Seaside Wedding Invites

Here are the finished product of the "Vintage Seaside Wedding Invites" Every month i have a new favorite color scheme...this is now my all time favorite color combo for a wedding. Love the striped  vellum wrap with the custom logo.

The Envelopements pocketfold was created in a beautiful letterpress cardstock. With a custom cut layered initial logo.

Love,  love, love the striped backing...this give the classy beach whimsy I was looking for!

each invitation had 4 hand forged 'tiny antique' brads...labor of love indeed, but again so worth it.

each invite had a light gold pyrite liner with custom addressing

the inserts were printed on a beautiful letterpress cardstock, with a vintage rsvp postcard (the couples picture was on the back of the postcard) so sweet.

Mermaid Baby Shower

i am a big fan of thinking outside of the flat envelope...these starfish will set a sweet tone for the 'baby mermaid theme'

two cards were hand cut and attached with vintage silk ribbon (lots of cutting, but worth it!)

my artist rendering of the idea...i like seeing it come to life!

i used padded envelopes with a matching label to complete the look. i like the whimsy/vintage feel of the 'little mermaid' invite.

Breakfast at Tiffany's Bridal Shower


a lot of love went into this 'fabulous' shower invite! i used  the classic tiffany's colors and textures to keep the elegant yet, fun feel.


of course we needed the necessary "bling" accents


note the classic pearl necklace and little black dress that the guests are encouraged to wear, to keep in the spirit of "Breakfast at Tiffany's".

had to have a worthy mailing label to show the love....this should be so fun!( the bride-to-be is my daughters best friend)
