    Magnolia Branch Wedding Invitation

    Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, Brown, COLOR PALETTE, Cream, Gold, Green, inspiration, invitation clients, invitations, Season: Fall

    Emily and David were getting married in the beautiful Our Lady Mount Carmel Church in Montecito, with their reception taking place at the Historical Museum in downtown Santa Barbara. Their celebration was to be rustic and beautiful with lots of herb accents and wooded details.

    Emily loved the fountain in the courtyard of the museum, so I thought it would be fun to incorporate a custom pen and ink of the fountain onto the folding reply card.

    Magnolia flowers and branches were going to play a big part in the decor and floral design, so we used these branches on the wedding invitation, as well as on the mailing envelope design.

    Also in this suite, was a reception card for Emily and David’s reception at the Santa Barbara Historical Museum. We used the same tile pattern from the reply card on the reception card, bringing in a little old world Santa Barbara to the suite.

    I also worked with Emily and David on their wedding menus and seating cards. For their seating card, we used design motifs from the invitation as entree designations on the seating cards. A great way to tie the whole look together.

    Vintage Garden Wedding Invitation

    Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, Blue, COLOR PALETTE, Cream, Green, inspiration, invitation clients, invitations, Pink, Theme: Garden

    When my sister-in-law got engaged last year, I was so excited to be able to help her with some of her wedding planning, and mainly, her wedding invitations! Our first order of business was to come up with a color palette that we could use for the invitations and carry onto the wedding celebration. I came up with several palettes for Angela, and after looking them over, she decided on this one…

    Next I went to work designing her invitations. Angela loves books, so my main inspiration was vintage books. I love how old hardcover books have the book cloth on the spine so I decided to incorporate that look into her pocket folder invitation.

    I also designed a monogram for her and Jack, her fiance.

    To complete the invitation, I created custom stamps for their mailing and reply envelopes.

    Tip: Custom stamps are a great way to tie the invitation suite together. You can create a look all your own and really make your envelopes pop!

    I absolutely loved how this invitation turned out. Definitely one of my favorites from the year so far! Angela and Jack were married a couple weekends ago, and I am so honored to have been able to work with them on their wedding day papers. Congrats you two!

    Color Palette: Glamorous Red and Green

    Posted in: Black, COLOR PALETTE, Green, Red, Season: Winter, Theme: Glamour

    With Christmas right around the corner, I thought I would do a red and green color palette. Not your typical red and green, but a glamorous pairing of the two, accented by black; almost an emerald green and a dark ruby red.

    Color Palette: Stained Glass

    Posted in: Blue, COLOR PALETTE, Green, Pink, Red, Season: Spring, Theme: Fun, Theme: Garden, Theme: Modern, Theme: Romantic, White

    Speaking of Magpies Cakes (from our Wednesday post), how about the absolutely incredible stained glass cake featured top left? When I saw this picture I immediately saved it because I mean really, how stunning is this cake! I decided to make a color palette around the cake and came up with a beautiful, soft, Spring time feeling color palette using soft blue, green and a toned down rosy pink/red.
