Script Vs. Italic

 These latest envelopes are the perfect example of how you can choose a font to compliment your invitation.  The bride above chose the italic and it compliments the font on her invitation perfectly!

Love this classy silver and black invite with the tiffany blue bow!  The Black Script font goes perfectly with it. And I loved working with the silver envelopes! Great choice ladies!

Tiffany Blue Ink on Metallic Emerald Green

I always love a new challenge!  First of all, I mixed the ink to match her Tiffany Blue liners on the inside envelope.  With dark envelopes like this, I never know how the ink will respond.  Will it soak into the paper and change colors as it dries or will it sit on top and stand out like I want it to?  This did exactly what we wanted it to do!  Very fun colors.

The bride had a special request for the font - all lowercase letters!  She wanted a clean, simply look to them.  The hardest part was just forcing myself to NOT make capitals.  Once I got that in my head - it went well!

Congratulations Sovia and Jon!

Navy Blue on Metallic Envelopes

The fun variety of ink colors and envelopes have begun now that the busy wedding season has begun.  I love when I get to do something besides the traditional black.  There are many ways you can dress up your envelopes with ink color to add that final touch.

This bride chose a navy blue italic font for her metallic white envelopes.  They really pop!

Congratulations Dana!!!!

Brown and Gold

Brown Script with traditional zip code on the outside envelope with return address.  Gold ink on the inside brown pocket style invitation.  This bride used her pocket invitation as the inner envelope.  Classy touch!  Congratulations Rachel!!!!

Silver Envelopes, Gold Place Cards and An Adoption Gift

I worked on several different things today.....

Metallic Silver Envelopes!  How cool is that?  I did black ink on the outer silver envelope and silver ink on the black inner envelope.  Nice finishing touch!  Congratulations Lindsay!

Working on place cards for William Bainbridge Steel Designs again.  These are ivory with Gold Ink in Script.

Last but not least, I wanted to share this idea.  A few years ago a dear friend of mine adopted a baby and I had found this poem in a book of mine.  I personalized it by adding the baby's name and birth information.
