 this wedding invitation was made for katie...a sweet bride who was inspired by my 'style me pretty' wedding in mammoth. by using her beautiful colors of light grey and pale yellow, it gave a completely different feel. love it!

rustic feather and wood shower invitation



my artist rendering of the invite. 
 i loved doing the custom coat of arms



this beautiful invite was inspired by the couples impeccable taste...they are having a rustic wedding featuring  antlers, feathers and rustic woods.







love the variation of feathers

the rust silk layer added the polish to the wood

Nostalgic 75th Birthday Invitation

such a joy it was to create this invitation. using a childhood photo made this a touch more personal.

a raised textured  paper created a vintage feel

small caption reads "He's still just so darn cute"

trimmed layered  address label

love the back of these envelopes with coordinating liner

Batik Floating Flowers invitation

this invitation was a yummy tactile thing...i am loving the wax batik flowers on this paper.
 the natural frayed edge and layers are what i think  made it special.

envelope had to be in style with the invite.

Wood Shower Invitation

these invitations were on a lovely wood , layered with
a beautiful patterned cardstock, and printed on a
vellum with a tiny colored brad to hold it all in place.

envelopes were designed to compliment...
notice how the invitation layers are free moving, this
creates a whimsical design in itself.

little drink tags had to be done....cause i love the pattern
and textures.

BTW:these invitations were inspired by something i received a while back and just had to put my flair on it...too  much inspiration to hold back.

Tiffany Blue Party Invitation for a Cancer Free Celebration

cut fabric flowers would be attached with hemp cord



this design would have pressed lavender and ribbon
