Everything that Sparkles

admin — Sat, 03 Nov 2012 00:15:50 +0000

For someone who is not a super girly girl, I love things that sparkle. I have always dreamed of wearing a dress that is made totally of jewels and shimmers with every movement (maybe one day…). So for this week inspiration, I decided to delve a little deeper into my sparkly persona and if I had a chance, I would wear everything in this post. Enjoy!

Paper Flowers

As a stationery designer, it is a bit of a job hazard to be completely in love with all things paper. I am completely drooling over these handmade paper flower bouquets. These lovely pretties are sold on Etsy, so you know every piece will be made with love and care. Stop by their shops today to see what other styles and designs they offer. You will surely be impressed!

Unveiled Bridal Show!

Yesterday I spent the day in Westminster at the Unveiled Bridal Show. It was awesome…we had such a great time and met so many new vendors and some great brides! Also on display for the first time (and on sale tomorrow) was our new Hand-painted Water Color stationery.

Watercolor Sneak Peak!

admin — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 09:00:30 +0000

I am so excited about my newest design venture! I love watercolor paintings and while I can’t say that I will ever be opening any art galleries, I can say that the watercolor invitations sets are quickly becoming my new favorite invitations. Even though the watercolor designs won’t be available for purchase until their unveiling at my next Bridal Show, I am just so excited about them I had to give you a sneak peak of the designs I was working on today.

Today I worked on the ‘Pretty in Pink’ invitation. I started by painting the watercolor design, keeping in mind the texture and light-airy-ness I wanted this particular invitation to have. I then scanned my painting and inserted the text. I absolutely LOVE my newest script font (I think it worked perfectly with the pink watercolors).

I can’t wait until the Unveiled Bridal Show on April 15th, where these and my other watercolor designs will be on grand display. Stop by and let me know what you think!

Seriously! How awesome is this font?

Today I spent the afternoon assembling custom samples for a bridal magazine. I am super excited about the possibility of one of my designs being featured in print. Keep watching I will be updating as to whether they make it to press! Check out the original designs in our shop!

Drooling over these feather accessorized wedding bouquets. Love the ‘softness’ of the feather texture.

A Vineyard Wedding Inspiration.

I love vineyards, and have been working on some vineyard inspired stationery in my studio. So that inspired me to create a Vineyard inspiration board. I think I’m a little partial because I love the deep purple color theme too.
