Invitations....

Being a card maker, I've always dreamed of making my own invitations.  This wedding is at a winery and it will be a rustic chic type affair.  My friend Monique is perfect for helping visualize since her house design is exactly that!

We have been working on a lot of shabby chic items for decor but I will save that for another post!

Back to the invitations.  Ive worked on them and worked on them and then guess what?! My fiancé doesn't like them! Now remember the theme!!! This isn't your typical banquet style invitation.

I think they are amazing and I love the fonts! My mom... not so much, she said they are hard to read.  Aren't wedding invitations supposed to have fancy writing?! Anyway I think to break up the brown, I will be adding lace to the belly band or replacing it with lace burlap all together.  What do you think?

New cards for Etsy

Now that summer has begun and I am very low on cash lately, I have decided to try selling my cards on Etsy.  I am not really sure what the strategy is on selling things there but I will see if it works nonetheless! Below are some cards I have whipped up for various occasions.

The stamp "thanks oodles" comes from close to my heart.  I love love this stamp and if you are interested in it please click on this link.

I love how simple yet elegant they are!!!
