Early 1800's era Letter to be Used in Movie.......

Earlier in the week, I received a quote request out of California for an authentic looking, early 1800's era letter to be used on screen in a movie.  How cool is that?  They begin filming in Los Angeles on Dec. 10.


The request details were:

"This letter will be featured on screen so it needs to look authentic. Furthermore, the letter is written by a well educated man (so it would look very nice and formal). There would be no address or signature as the letter is written in haste and delivered in secret."

Here's what I came up with:

These are 6 1/4 X 8 1/2 stationary size papers.  Black script.  So much fun to do! 

They loved it and it's being shipped Monday!

Bibles - Always the Perfect Gift

I wrote a letter in a Bible today.  The groom is giving it to his bride on their wedding day!  What a wonderful gift!

Christmas Wedding and Christmas Gifts

 

Loved this project.  The groom was in my husband's Youth Group 10 years ago.  Okay - I feel old.  Ha!! Ha!!  

Congratulations Adam and Sybil!!!!!

 This is a Christmas gift.  Always love those organized people!

 8 x 10 natural parchment with both italic and script font.  I used the italic for the scripture verses and script for the rest.

Marriage Proposal

It's always fun when a creative guy calls me to help him with a marriage proposal!  I worked on 5 different letters this week to help him to get ready to pop the question! 

Each letter was done on a different color parchment and placed in a parchment envelope.

Each envelope was marked and then sealed with a wax seal

And then there is the 8 x 10 marriage proposal itself to be presented at dinner.  

Congratulations Manny & Anna!

A Poem for the Mother of the Bride

I recently shared with you a very popular poem that many of my brides give to their new mother-in-law on their wedding day.  I had a bride re-write it a bit so that the groom could give it to the mother of the bride.  Neat idea!!!
