Wednesday

Invitations...

.. are out! Nice and early.

We are so stoked with the final result! Elliot Norton did a fantastic job. The hands are ours - photo taken by mum. The envelopes are hand constructed and lined with a vintage wallpaper pattern that was printed onto thin paper. Each envelope was sealed with a round sticker that coordinated with the lining. The two parts to the invite, as well as the name tag, were handsewn together (by me!) and tied with a small bow, in thread that matched the colour of the lining. The tags were cut from recycled paper (like the envelopes) and each name was hand scripted. A massive thank you to Rachel for the ongoing creative ideas and hands-on help, and also for the freshly squeezed juices that kept us going :D

(Excuse the terrible quality of the photos.. must blame the low light, and a rush to get photos of them before posting!)

Looking forward to your repondez. Feel free to write a wee note!

Ooh! I found you through Style Me Pretty,

LOVE these invites.

We are doing a vintage travel poster as ours, but want to have a logo and byline.

Your logo is very inspiring. And will be good to show the Fiancée.

Can't wait to have a look at your other posts.

Hi Sez

Oh, I forgot I even had a SMP account. Fancy that!

Why thank you. It was a lot of fun.

The travel poster sounds a nice idea!

All the best for your wedding scheming :)
