It's Wedding Season!

I have another wedding invitation that I have been dying to share. I got my hard copy in the mail this weekend, so I think it's safe to do a post. Here it is (with some blurring to protect the identity of the innocent :) — No, we just don't want any wedding crashers at what is sure to be a fantastic day!


This invitation was so fun to work on because the Erin (the bride) is a close friend, and she is on the opposite end of the spectrum from a Bridezilla—honestly, nothing has gone to this girl's head. 
You might notice the art from this post. I like to reuse and repurpose designs and when Erin mentioned that she was going to use purple wildflowers for her bouquet, I thought immediately of the design from the Spring Social, so I thought, why not?

I even got to do a Spanish version of this invite because the groom is from Venezuela. I've done multiple versions before and it is a great perk of printing your own invites. Read more about the process here.

Wedding Cards

One more wedding post:

I like to make customized cards for weddings that I attend. Not only does it save money but I think that it's a small way to make an impersonal gift (like a gift card) a bit more personal. Plus, it's always fun to find a quote that works for the couple and to try to determine wedding colors to use from the invitation.


I even made one of these for my husband and I (upper right) for the day we started dating (cute—I know!) and plan to hang it in our home somewhere when I find the time :)

I'm looking forward to making more of these for our upcoming summer weddings!
