I apologize for the lack of blogging. It's that time of the year and we're churning invitations like butter (lol!).

Here's one from some months back.
Marcella & Troy Tiffany Blue theme invitations


Marcella wanted to keep all her enclosures together; so we incorporated a pocket into the box to keep them together.


The invitations were delivered to guests in boxes. We also created custom stamps with Marcella & Troy's logo. See our Zazzle storefront

The National Stationery Show was last month. Although I did not attend, our work was featured :). We were contacted by one of our rhinestone suppliers several months ago. She requested us to provide her with some samples using a few of her jewelled embellishments. Because we were (and still are) in the middle of our busy season, we used some of our past work and embellished them. Below is the feedback received after the show:

They are absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!!! Thank you so much for your beautiful work!!!!! You obviously are very talented at what you do!!!

My favorite was the snowflake with that little bit of printing peeking out from under the brooch. Honestly, that sample brought a whole new meaning to that buckle. It was one of the most popular ones at the show!
From a technical standpoint, I loved the attention to detail you did wrhen you tied the purple ribbon on the bars of the pearl and rhinestone buckle. Great job!!!

This was my second NSS and probably my 50th+ trade show in the 4.5 years I have been in business. Hands down, this was the BEST show I have ever done.

We were busy from the moment the show opened until it was over. When I say busy, I mean we were blocking the entire aisle with people waiting to talk with us. They would wait 15+ minutes just to ask questions! It was insane!!! This show was a game changer for me.

I am sure your samples helped with that! Thank you so much!! I owe you big time!"

Below are some of the samples...















Enjoy your weekend!

Wedding Invitations

Hello Everyone,
Again, I've been a pretty bad blogger and it's simply because I've been super busy. I apologize for the lack of images. So here we go, below are some invitations from months ago. Enjoy

"Jessica & Mario"
I began communicating with Jessica via email earlier in the year. Yes, she's one of our many out-of-town brides we never get to meet. She went with the Box Mailer style boxed invitations with the jewelled accent. Jessica was married in Disneyland in October.



The boxes were mailed with custom stamps that we designed. A nice way to complete the look!




Escort Cards



We also created the Table cards that went into frames for the reception


Shayla & Romario
Shayla was another one of our out-of-town bride that we [unfortunately] never got to meet but communicated via email and telephone. She loved the "Birthday Dinner" invite from our online gallery. We replicated that with a little twist. Her wedding colors - crimson and gray - really made the invitations pop. She and Romario were married in October in Tennessee and their wedding was fabulous!

The invitation was a folded card with a satin ribbon accent with patterned cardstock.

Layne & Michael
Here's one from some months ago I never got to post. Working with clients during their wedding planning process means getting to work with the families in most cases. This is one of the joys of being in this industry and we have blessed this year to have worked and still working with some wonderful brides and their families. Layne and Michael were married in Cabo San Lucas this summer.

The invitation was a side Pocketfold.




Well that's all for now. Take care everyone!
