Jeri's Fourth of July Invites

Jeri has come to me after seeing my Cousin's invitations. Her theme is vintage 4th of July, since she is getting married on the 4th! The boxes around the invites/inserts is where it would be cut. They are going to panel pockets, with dark blue metallic pocket and a dark red backing layer and white metallic paper with white metallic envelopes, she is choosing between doing and not doing inner envelopes and if she choose to do them she is doing dark red metallic inner envelopes. I am working on her map at the moment to go on the back of the directions insert.

Jennifer's CD Favor Holders

I made Jessica's Invitations back in December and she came back to me for her CD Favors. We used her monogram and then made a pocket for the CD to go in. After making 100 of them and not thinking about testing it, I found that 5 inches was too small. Luckily she is incredibly patient and has been waiting for these for a while. I remade them 5.5 inches and the fit the CD snug enough so that it won't move around and scratch. They will be mailed out tomorrow!!
Advice to anyone who tries to make these, account for the size of the glue strips when measuring!!

Karla's Boarding Pass

Karla purchased her boarding pass save the dates as soon as she received the sample in the mail! I love the silver and black, very classic.



Natalie Save the Dates

Her save the dates were a labor of love. We came across a problem wtih printing on metallic becuase of how the design was! We came up with a solution which made the save the dates look even better! Here is what she had to say about them:

Hi!

We received the save the dates last night and they look better than I ever could have imagined. Everything looked perfect! I can't thank you enough for your help and hard work. These truly are amazing and I'm so proud to send them out. We stuffed and stamped all of them last night and they're already in the mail. I am very excited about working on the other pieces with you and seriously, we were blown away with how amazing everything looked!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!


Thank you Natalie for all your patience and I can't wait to work on all your other paper products for your wedding!

Are my posts working?

For some reason I am seeing just white in the middle?

Nevermind!!

Computer Calligraphy

Since regular calligraphy is soooo expensive, I have started offering computer calligraphy to clients who order invites or save the dates. They complete the look of the invite. This can be done in the fonts that match your invites or in other beautiful script and sans-serif fonts. The cost is only $15 per 25 addresses.

Here is a picture of the most recent:



Martha's Map

Here is map I made to go with her baby shower invites! She wanted a fun design to go with her invites.
