Something Blue...

I'm currently working on a wedding suite that I'm quite enjoying. The bride has wonderful taste and so the invitations will be lovely. Her color theme is this sweet blue with the crisp white of the lovely cotton paper these are being printed on and it truly does look exquisite.

I like to see peoples' processes as they work through their craft and with that in mind, I always photograph mine. I decided to post it here as I particularly enjoy going back and taking a look once the whole invitation  suite is completed. I think it really shows how much work and attention goes into each invitation.

A Wedding to Remember

So I finished a huge project and got permission from the bride to post it. She has been getting fantastic feedback about the invites and keeps telling me everyone is asking who made them. I can't describe how wonderful it is to hear that!

So I had to make 125 wedding invitations in 2 weeks. It was quite a challenge but it has been very rewarding and I took pictures every step of the way to document it all.

All the pieces are printed out here. I printed everything on 11" x 17" paper.

Here are the sheets on the paper cutter and the pieces of matte cardstock I had already glued together to frame the invitation.

Now everything is cut and ready to be assembled!

Here are the invites and RSVPs glued onto the matte card stock. They looked great!

And here are the stuffed closed invitations sealed with the printed bands!

I will be posting the final invitation soon!
